Perhaps DHH could have chosen a better title for his post than "TDD is dead", then? Perhaps "unit testing for controllers: not the wisest choice"?



DHH's article looks to be titled 'Test-induced design damage', not 'TDD is dead'. 'TDD is dead' is referenced in the article as a current uprising (which I hadn't heard of, fwiw), not necessarily as something DHH personally believes. I thought his take on the issue was nuanced and thoughtful, so its surprising to see Kent's overreaction here.
