Design Driven Testing does not burden your projects with cumbersome design processes. Rather it recognizes reality—that design comes first. You design. You build tests to verify the design. You write code to implement the design. You run the tests to verify the code. With Design Driven Testing, you get all the benefits of Test Driven Development while recognizing the reality that design is, in fact, paramount.
