The document introduces Test Driven Development (TDD). TDD is a software development process that relies on short development cycles where you write an automated test first, then code to pass that test, and refactor as needed. The key benefits of TDD are that it encourages simple design, validates correctness, and drives the design of a program in a modular way. TDD best practices include writing self-explanatory test assertions, keeping tests small and isolated, integrating code frequently, and following the TDD mantra and rhythm of red-green-refactor.
