Embedded TDD: Breaking the Hardware Dependency

n a previous blog post I wrote about some of the challenges facing the use of test driven development (TDD) in an embedded environment. It's important to be aware of these obstacles, but also important to keep in mind that all of them are solvable. This post deals with perhaps the most prominent problem (or at least the one I found most daunting originally): hardware dependency.

Embedded TDD Challenges

Test-driven development (TDD) is a (relatively) modern software development technique; and embedded systems inevitably lag behind the cutting-edge. Nevertheless, there's nothing special about embedded systems that negates the advantages this strategy can bring to a team.
