Too many teams write code that works, but not code that solves the right problem.
That’s why ATDD is so important.
It’s not just another acronym. ATDD is a way to bring clarity to what we’re building before we write code. It aligns developers, testers, and business folks around a shared understanding of value, using real, testable examples.
Proper ATDD leads to:
• Fewer bugs
• Better collaboration
• Faster feedback
• Software that actually meets user needs
But most teams misuse or misunderstand it and then give up.
Dave Farley has put together a free ATDD Starter Guide. Clear, actionable, and grounded in real-world software engineering practice. Download yours: www.subscribepage.com/cd-atdd-guide

We often ask: What's the best language to learn? But the real question is: Where are languages evolving to take us?
In modern software engineering, we're seeing a clear trend:
➡️ More declarative.
➡️ More expressive.
➡️ Less ceremony, more clarity.
Languages like Rust, Go, and even Kotlin aren't just popular, they represent a shift toward tools that help humans think, not just machines run.
But here's the twist: the best language of the future might not be the most powerful, it’ll be the one that enables fast feedback, safer changes, and easier collaboration.
💬 What language do you think represents the future of software? And why?
