Evaluation of the Effects of Using TDD on the Internal Quality of the Product
Abstract
The search for efficiency and effectiveness in software development and maintenance is generally supported by the adoption of methods and technologies that may have a great impact in the organization. To prevent the organizations from unexpected results it is important to evaluate these technologies before their institutionalization. This paper presents the experience of the introduction of TDD at SEFAZ-AL and the results achieved.
Keywords:
Effects Evaluation, TDD, Internal Product Quality
