I thought TDD meant doing tests before implementing code rather simply testing code.
So I always assumed someone testing his code wasn't necessarily TDDing, and that someone not TDDing wasn't necessarily not testing, just that she tests after implementation.
Is my understanding of TDD wrong ?
- deweller 9y agoYou are correct. I incorrectly interpreted "don't do TDD" as "don't do tests".
