What are the essential unit test cards? Some of you have asked for these to be assembled into one place, so here we are:

• F.I.R.S.T.
• The Three Rules
• Red Green Refactor
• Characterization Tests
• TDD Smells
• Ice Breakers
• Antipatterns
• Why Test-After Sucks

With this deck of cards, you have enough information to understand how to go about TDD, how to work around some problems, and why you should bother. Throw in the wikipedia article and its links (, a nice xUnit framework for your language, and you should be able to competently carry out TDD on your current project.
