Testing, TDD, and BDD

In the previous section, we learned about automatic static and dynamic program analysis. This section will concentrate on human-involved (test code preparation) tests, which are a subset of dynamic analysis. Unit testing, TDD, and BDD are examples.

Unit testing presumes that if we already have a single unit of code, we must develop a test driver and prepare input data to see whether the output is right. Following that, we perform integration tests to test multiple units at once, followed by acceptance tests to test the entire application. Because integration and acceptance tests are more difficult to maintain and more project-related than unit tests, covering them in this book is extremely difficult. Those of you who are interested can find out more by going to https://www.iso.org/standard/45142.html.

In contrast to unit tests, TDD believes that we should have test code and data first, develop some code and make it pass quickly, and finally refactor until...
