Test driven development is about testing

From Alan,

It's very much in vogue at the moment to talk about TDD, and to mention, knowingly, and in passing that "of course, TDD is not about testing, it's about X". X is behaviour, design, specification and any number of other things.

I agree that TDD is about testing (and that people overemphasise the positive side-effects of pursuing testability). But the importance of testing is misunderstood too. They think it is an overhead.

TDD is about testing, but testing is about development.
