  • Abstract
    Test-driven development is a relatively new approach to software engineering, involving the iterative construction of test cases first, and then the application code that passes the test cases second. This panel session will discuss the impacts of test-driven development on long-term software maintenance costs. The panelists represent different research disciplines related to this topic, including software maintenance, software testing, program redocumentation, program understanding, and empirical studies.
