Re: Re: If you could get your colleagues to read just one book on TDD, which would it be?

The following are some books I recommend to developers new to Agile software development.
This book is new, pretty complete, and easy-to-read about adopting agile software development: The Agile Samurai
This book covers the same ground as the Agile Samurai book. It's a little more in-depth. Most of it is now free on-line, but you can buy the book from Amazon: The Art of Agile Development.
This book is about test-driven development in C: Test Driven Development for Embedded C
This is the original TDD book in Java: Test-Driven Development
The original book on Refactoring.
If you have legacy code, you also need to this book: Working Effectively With Legacy Code.
