Changed the image with way less highlighted words, which is kind of how Romain uses it…

In reality, let's say there's an e-mail with 4 paragraphs, we would have the 5 or 6 most important words highlighted in it... @Carlos Villela

Although, economically speaking, if everyone had listened to John it would probably spark a major recession through high unemployment. This would see a period of plenty of roast pig but no-one with enough money to buy any :P Sadly so true… Although, economically speaking, if everyone had listened to John it would probably spark a major recession through high unemployment.

]]> Comment on TTDD – Tautological Test Driven Development (Anti Pattern) by James Carr http://fabiopereira.me/blog/2010/05/27/ttdd-tautological-test-driven-development-anti-pattern/#comment-7014 James Carr Fri, 11 Jun 2010 20:12:24 +0000 http://fabiopereira.me/blog/2010/05/25/ttdd-tautological-test-driven-development-anti-pattern/#comment-7014 Good post. This is a concept I often teach people as well and as a rule of thumb I tell them they should never do a verify against a stub. In your example, both collaborators are providing indirect inputs to the system and in your corrected test case you do the right thing, providing those indirect inputs and verifying the actual behavior of the system under test. Verifying a call to a collaborator that provides another indirect input to the system is BAD. I could easily take your first test and in the implementation still call the carService and return null. The code is broken in a horrible way but the test will always pass. Doh! :) Good post.
