问题
I'm looking for research papers or studies made on Unit Testing and TDD effectiveness.
Points of interest:
- Does TDD reduce Development time?
- Does overall development cost reduced as well?
- Is the result product more stable?

An article on infoQ: Empirical Studies Show Test Driven Development Improves Quality.
And a link to the Realizing quality improvement through TDD study.
"TDD seems to be applicable in various domains and can significantly reduce the defect density of developed software without significant productivity reduction of the development team." The study compared 4 projects, at Microsoft and IBM that used TDD with similar projects that did not use TDD.
