New Rails podcast, taking another break, plus: what do you want to hear in the future?

In this episode, I talk with Zach Dennis about his experience with TDD, the benefits of test first vs test after, the pitfalls of being a TDD purist when working with a team, and giving yourself permission to do things in new and novel ways.
