Faulty Technique Dichotomy
Martin Fowler writes: "Several friends of mine commented how stored procedures were a disaster because they weren’t kept in version control (instead they had names like GetCust01, GetCust02, GetCust02B etc). That’s not a problem with stored procedures, that’s a problem with people not using them properly. Similar a criticism that TDD led to a brittle design on further questioning led to the discovery that the team in question hadn’t done any refactoring – and refactoring is a critical step in TDD."
