TDD is a software development methodology where tests are written before the actual code. The core principles are:
Test First: Write a failing test before writing any production code
Minimal Code: Write only enough code to make the test pass
Incremental Development: Build functionality in small, testable increments
Continuous Refactoring: Improve code structure while maintaining functionality TDD follows the Red-Green-Refactor cycle, ensuring code is thoroughly tested and well-designed from the start.
