Test-Driven Development with AI

Will AI take over developer and tester roles? Rob's investigations found that an AI/LLM agent can write effective implementations, but will need very clear, descriptive specifications. Yes, we humans will need to write the tests...first!

Test-Driven Development (TDD) has allowed developers to "think in tests” for over 25 years. And Behavior Driven Development expanded upon the test-first approach by involving everyone on the team in writing readable, user-goal-oriented scenarios.

Rob Myers demonstrates TDD paired with AI, revealing some peculiarities and pitfalls, but resulting in a high level of confidence in the code that is written.
