TDD at the Architecture level

This article explores the concept of applying Test Driven Development (TDD) principles to software architecture, referred to as Test Driven Architecture (TDA). While TDD is widely praised for its benefits at the code level, the author argues that TDA could bring similar advantages to the architecture level, such as reducing over-engineering, providing freedom to refactor, and aiding in technology choices. The process involves writing tests for non-functional requirements like scalability and security before implementation. Although implementing TDA is technically challenging and time-consuming, the author believes it can be valuable in certain scenarios, such as in large systems or critical applications, but may not be suitable for all projects.
