Testing And/Or Modularity

Automated testing is a vital part of software development. It’s goal-directed. We want higher quality and easier change. The subtlety we miss is that testing interacts with design at a deep level and affects our decisions about modularity. In this talk, Michael Feathers will describe the dynamics of this interaction and what they mean for design as we make decisions at the bounded context level and below.
