## Overview

Test Driven Development for Embedded C by James W. Grenning is a definitive guide for embedded software developers seeking to implement TDD in C projects. This book teaches how to write testable, modular code that reduces debugging time and adapts easily to change. With practical techniques like off-target testing and executable specifications, it transforms embedded development into a faster, cleaner, and more reliable process. Highly rated and recommended, it’s a must-have for professionals aiming to elevate their embedded coding standards.

## Description

Did you write C code last week? Does your code work? Is your design clean? If you answered yes to the first question but got queasy over the second two, you need to know about Test Driven Development. TDD helps you write code that works the first time, and then helps you keep it running as the code evolves to meet new needs. In Test Driven Development for Embedded C, author James W. Grenning shows embedded software developers how to bring the benefits of TDD to embedded C. In the book, you'll see how to apply TDD to C and the world of embedded software development. Learn how to break key dependencies, allowing code to be tested thoroughly. Explore how to test-drive your product's core logic, exploiting the power of your development environment to deliver better software. In fact, as the book shows, you can test-drive a device driver before you even have the device soldered into a circuit board. Avoid the natural delays when testing on the target by using the tailored TDD Microcycle, employing off-target tests and dual-targeted code. Learn how to make code testable and more flexible, better able to handle the inevitable changes demanded by the market. The tests drive development and then serve as an executable specification, keeping track of the critical details and assumptions baked into the code. In Test Driven Development for Embedded C, you'll find that TDD is a different way to program-unit tests are written in a tight feedback loop with the production code, producing testable code and greatly reducing wasteful debugging. TDD also influences design. When tests are considered part of design, you create modular and loosely coupled code, the hallmarks of a good design. With Test Driven Development for Embedded C, C developers-even embedded C developers-can finally write cleaner, testable code with TDD.

Review: This book changes my mind about developing embedded systems - A new way to face the embedded world, the relaxed author's way to write this books gives you an easy understanding of what he wants to say, definitely a game changer in the development techniques for me.
Review: Excellent book! - Well written book, good structure and the examples are clear. Even though I might not apply TDD workflow, this book helped me to better understand the modular conception of C project. I recommend this book even if you do not plan to apply TDD in your every day work.
