TDD is not like a cycling proficiency badge

Over the past few years I do seem to have converted a few people and projects to Extreme Programming, or at least TDD. I’ve no idea what this says about me, but they seem to really get the religion just as I’m leaving. From a recent colleague and new TDD evangelist:

If I had a blog I would post something about how the ability to write a good test isn’t something you achieve like a cycling proficiency badge, it’s something you’re constantly learning and a subtle skill with many dimensions that needs constant refining. You can probably tell that today I’ve had to revisit a test I wrote a few weeks ago :). Ian Esling.
