As discussed in the past videos, we are proposing a new method for refactoring legacy code: first, refactor through safe mechanics towards pure functions then, write automated tests for pure functions using data-driven and property-based tests finally, refactor the pure functions to classes (or something else). This is part 1 of the codecast in which

This is a brief part of a longer conversation with Thomas Sundberg on Behavior Driven Development (BDD). While BDD is a very useful technique, are there times when it doesn’t apply?
