    This lengthy online article, referenced in

    . As an early summary, it does strike me as a bit dated now, but having been entirely unfamiliar with these aspects of "Extreme Programming" it brought me up to speed enough to better understand the sort of environment wherein Test Driven Development generally takes place, adding the necessary context to make books on that topic useful.

    Very informative article that seems like it was probably written early on when this concept was just taking hold in software engineering.
