Applying TDD when the application is 100% CRUD

Question

Answer 1

I am working on a CRUD application now. What I am doing at this point is writing unit tests on my Repository objects and test that the CRUD features are working as they should. I have found that this has inherently unit tested the actual database code as well. We have found quite a few bugs in the database code this way. So I would suggest you push ahead and keep going with unit tests. I know applying TDD on CRUD apps is not as glamorous as things you might read about in blogs or magazines, but it is serving its purpose and you will be that much better when you work on a more complex application.
