摘要：
Test-Driven Development is one of the foundational Agile techniques with well known benefits. But it has not reached mainstream adoption. One possible reason is the way it is taught. This article presents a thematic analysis study on challenges and recommendations for those trying to teach Test-Driven Development. It is based on 15 interviews with educators and practitioners from different countries with experience teaching TDD. Our study identified six challenges and 21 recommendations grouped in four themes that can help educators and trainers to design and deliver effective Test-Driven Development training.
