<p>Instead of writing a whole test and then attempting to make it pass, only write enough code to get the test to fail.</p>
<p>This could be by starting with a failing assertion that is fixed with a hard-coded value and then iterating on the test to introduce the next failure before repeating the process.</p>
<p>This allows you to keep the feedback loop small and not write more code than is needed, to focus on the objective of the test, and not code yourself into a corner.</p>
