Introduction: Driving Design—TDD and SOLID
Explore how test-driven development centers design decisions and apply the SOLID principles for flexible, modular Java code. Understand each principle's value and see examples that prepare you to manage complex designs using TDD techniques.

So far, we’ve created some basic unit tests that have driven out a simple design for a couple of classes. We’ve experienced how test-driven development (TDD) makes decision-making about design choices central. In order to build out to a larger application, we’re going to need to be able to handle designs of greater complexity. To do that, we’re going to apply some recommended approaches to assessing what makes one design preferable to another.
