Sliming in TDD (Fake it 'til you make it) | Code Walks 024

One of the rules of TDD states that "you are not allowed to write any more production code than is sufficient to pass the one failing unit test". This is also known as "sliming" or "fake it 'til you make it".
It is a seemingly idiotic practice with massive benefits. 1) It helps you achieve and maintain flow. 2) It helps you increase test coverage. 3) If interpreted strictly together with the Transformation Priority Principle it helps you design better algorithms.

[@ChristopherOkhravi]

The video is called "The Transformation Priority Premise" kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGqWgpiwrLmEpqs I added it to the description now. Sorry about that :) :) Thanks for watching and thanks for bringing the missing link to my attention :)

With those skating and talking skills , maybe you should have added the Madonna song "Ray of Light" in the background. :D Great vid as always, but I made it better by doing exactly that.

I thought it was called sliming because slime is green and you're making the test green

Sweden is pretty flat, huh?
