Best quote of the conference: If you are writing code without using TDD it's called developing if you are using TDD it's called engineering

    @irene I wouldn't say inferior, just different. Like the difference between a contractor and structural engineer

    @irene I guess that depends on your definition of inferior, I wouldn't trust a structural engineer to actually build a house

    @irene I think the original is inaccurate in terms of being factual. It's just a joke try to convey the importance of TDD, at least to the speaker

    I can see why you might say this though.

    In a home project on my own time I might not be using TDD, but I am developing.

    Add in TDD and it becomes software engineering.
