I'd love for him or you to give me an example of an alternative that I should't "feel bad" about.

  I've used software contracts in conjunction with automated tests written after the fact to good result. I didn't find it any better than TDD and in some cases my outcomes were worse (but I expect that was my inexperience with the development mode).

    if you write them after the fact you aren't doing TDD or something as good as TDD. At least, this is what the TDD mob says.

      For nearly any realistic definition of "TDD mob" you can name, I'm in it. If your process results in well factored, automatically verified code that let's me refactor mercilessly, than its as good as TDD. In my experience I'm not disciplined enough to do this & most other developers aren't either. I've encountered far more untested code bases in my life than TDD zealots.
