Discuss Scrum PSD Exam Topic 1 Question 94

What are possible benefits from practicing Test-Driven Development? (choose the best three answers)

AIt is a great way for Testers to contribute early in the Sprint as they can start creating all the tests from the beginning.

BIt increases collaboration between Developers as it requires Pair Programming.

CIt helps to identify gaps in understanding the desired behavior.

DIt might lead to better code as refactoring is part of the Test-Driven Development cycle.

EIt helps break down complex problems into smaller ones that are much easier to be tackled.

FIt makes Integration Tests obsolete and by doing so saves a lot of time.

Suggested Answer: C, D, E

Test-Driven Development (TDD) helps identify gaps in understanding by requiring tests that outline the desired behavior. Refactoring ensures better code quality, and breaking problems into smaller units makes them manageable.

Breaking down problems is a huge plus for TDD!

Gwenn 2 months ago

I think it boosts collaboration, but not just through Pair Programming.

Lai 2 months ago

Wait, does TDD really make integration tests obsolete?

Donte 2 months ago

Totally agree, refactoring leads to better code!

Galen 2 months ago

TDD really helps identify gaps in understanding.

I vaguely recall something about TDD increasing collaboration, but I’m not convinced that it requires Pair Programming like option B suggests.

Bettina 3 months ago

I feel like option E about breaking down complex problems is definitely a benefit we talked about, but I’m not sure if it’s one of the top three.

Matilda 3 months ago

I'm not entirely sure, but I think option D about better code through refactoring sounds familiar from our practice questions.

Lonny 3 months ago

I remember discussing how TDD can help identify gaps in understanding, so I think option C might be one of the best answers.
