Re: paper: Test-Driven Development Benefits Beyond Design Quality: Flow State and Developer Experience

I'll add what I always say about such papers:
We all agree with the motivations - it is preaching to the choir.
The surveys mean nothing because of the bias in the sample being surveyed.
To me, such work is not worthy?of publication unless it contains objective?measures that strongly indicate?the code is better (less bugs?, more maintainable?, faster to production?) than the other professional alternatives.

TL;DR:
TDD is good not only in terms of how it helps the design, but it also favor our mental conditions to be more productive.
