Most of testing wisdom can be summarized in a few words. Tests are worthless, but testing is priceless.
TDD fails this. It puts test front and center, when they don't need to be.
From my experience doing tests for a limited, dependency light lib is very easy. Trivial even. But going test first never seemed like a clear benefit.
Also mocks like Mockito are the plague. Refactors (from tests passing to test passing) in presence of mocks is impossible.
