Testing complex systems is hard. Automating tests/checks for complex systems can be even harder. This is at least in part because of the difficulty involved in having the automate tests interact with the system-under-test to control its initial state, execute the logic in question, and inspecting the post-test state. And designing for testability in the abstract is hard to do in practice. There are so many ways to make a system hard to test!
The most sure-fire way to ensure a system is designed for testability is to drive the development of the system with automated tests, not at the unit-test level (TDD) but also at the system and component levels. What do these tests (or “examples”) look like? And how do they ensure testability of the system? That what I will be talking about.

Hi Gerard,
First of all, thank you for your session, it was an insightful introduction into EDD. Also, there are many take aways from your presentation slides but I was unable to find them on the itake website. Can I please ask you to share the link?
Many thanks,
Bogdan
