Best practices can slow your application down
Don’t fully understand the argument here. One the one hand they claim they built a successful solution with minor problems without test driven development or a lot of unit tests.<p>On the other hand they claim to really like tests and have it as a goal to do more of them.<p>But this is a contradiction. If they successfully built a large site with minimal testing then why exactly do they need all these unit tests?<p>If they where successful without test driven development then why do they need TDD?<p>To be cool?<p>It sure what to make of this. The argument seems inconsistent. If I had major success without best practices I would have proclaimed loudly that those practices are BS. But these guys seem to want it but ways.
