What’s happened to the links between Requirements and Tests? How do we know what to test and when? How do we, and the customers, know we got the system being built right? Testing used to happen at the end of the project process once the whole system had been built. Then testing became an iterative done each time. Now extreme programming (XP) advocates building test code before building actual code, by introducing the concepts of test frameworks & mock objects.
