I've also thought Test Driven Development is good, in moderation... as most things! Following it too stringently definitely has its pitfalls, and can lead to a somewhat narrow-minded approach to development. There are other competing modern ideologies I believe (e.g. Behaviour Driven Development), but I'm not sure any of them works particularly better.
