[TDD] Open Source Project Survey


Mark Levison
 

Contact Keith Braithewaite he reviewed a number of open source projects that were done test first, last, not at all. His conclusions are quite interesting.

Cheers
Mark

Hi,

I was hoping you may be able to help.
I'm working on a MSc. thesis and am looking to identify Open Source Test-First and Test-Last projects for a research experiment.
To this end I was hoping that anyone who has contributed to a Java open source project (and has some overall knowledge of the project) could fill out the attached (short, 12 questions) survey for that project?

My research will look at Design Pattern Usage in Test-First and Test-Last projects and I will post a link here to my research when finished.

Also (as far as I can see) it's been a little while since the last 'What projects are Test-Driven?' request in this group - by way of updating this information I can post the survey findings here (for java projects anyway). ?Of course if you prefer your project not be identified there is a privacy option on the survey.
?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Keith Fogarty.

Thanks Mark.
Keith's 'distribution of complexity' measurement approach looks interesting for sure. I wonder if it ever became a research paper - a quick check doesn't show anything. It'd be particularly useful if there was some formal identification of test-first, test-last and no-test.
Anyway, I'll ask.
Thanks again for the info,
Keith.

Keith - I've been chasing your namesake to publish a paper on InfoQ for 4yrs so I assume not. Perhaps you can take on his mantle. Here is an offer as you write your thesis if you happen to produce an article or two for normal (agile) humans I can find a forum for it on InfoQ.com. We don't pay well in $$, but do pay in notoriety.?

(If anyone not named Keith wishes to step into the breach with a technical paper showing the benefit (or pain) of TDD, UnitTests, .... - I will find a home for it.

Cheers
Mark?

If you have access to the repo history, then the existence of unit test code and when they were first checked in relative to when the code they test was first checked in should give a handle on how test driven the code was.
