Corrupted is not the right way to describe it. Both TDD and agile provide something amazing to management: a way to make the black hole called "software engineering" into something tangible and quantifiable. This ofcourse also makes it possible to execute some bad management practices on software engineering as well. People like to complain about agile (and apparently TDD) but I would argue that there are also huge success stories that don't make it to HN.
