BDD Alchemy: Change your Heavy Lead (Pb) Code into Pure Gold (Au)

Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.

Everything is going fine until the day when, during an informal conversation, you understand something deeper about your domain … This is called a ‘refactoring breakthrough’. Suddenly, everything changes, you start dreaming up a new design that would both simplify your life and make you more effective.

Something else has changed: your technical debt. It just doubled overnight! Whereas yesterday you felt productive, today, you feel slow in the light of what this new design would enable. Interestingly, it’s BDD and the discussions with users that put you in this situation. That’s strange, isn’t it?

That a best practice would create technical debt looks like a nonsense! Should we rethink the whole notion of ‘technical debt’? How does BDD unlock these ‘refactoring breakthrough’? How can we benefit from this opportunity? What’s at stake here?
