I like the general assumption that TDD failed.

Failed at what exactly? Who would think 1 methodology would give them all they need to be a great software engineer?

If TDD supposedly failed, can we hear the process that succeeded at what TDD failed? Please extend an olive branch and enlighten the rest of us.

Because I tell yea, I can't even count the amount of "senior software engineers" I've encountered, that deploy untested production code daily to systems that help you guys buy your coffee in the morning, manage your money and pensions. Oh yea, and they all seem to think TDD is bollocks too.

When that percentage decreases and engineers like that become a rare occurrence, then we can talk again. Peace.
