TDD literally saved our product and, by extension, our team. We took one of the lowest NetPromoter Scores you can imagine (seriously, imagine a really low one right now, I guarantee ours was lower) and by massive investment into TDD and automation, brought it close to neutral. Hot-patches used to happen several times a quarter, whereas now we just had our first after a year of investment into QA.
Our shop is far from a startup though so very few things on this site have meaning for our product.
- GuiA 12y agoCan you expound a bit? How can you correlate directly NPS and using TDD? Maybe it is that, for example, the new management/mindset/etc. that moved the dev team to TDD also moved the customer support team to be more responsive, and that's what increased your NPS. TDD reducing critical bugs hitting prod or stuff like that, I can understand - but NPS seems a bit odd.
