I think I agree with DHH:

Testing is a Pareto thing: you want to be on the right place on that curve or else you're probably sinking too much effort into it, and not enough on other things.

Thanks for the article. It is very illuminating.

I hear a lot of buzz on TDD. But I think TDD is not the end. There are complexities in application which is sometimes hard to comprehend before a module is put in place. In those cases DDT (development driven testing) might actually make sense.
