Project TDD Complexity

Here is the structure and complexity of a complete solution to the TDD project:

The cyclomatic complexity of the code can be measured using the formula of the number of simple conditions + 1. Each new TDD rule would add a simple condition, typically to a new if-statement. Note that the depth does not exceed 1 and that no if-then-else's are needed; therefore, no nested if-statements.

The cyclomatic complexity, i.e., the number of simple conditions + 1, is the minimum number of test cases needed to ensure that all statements in the code are executed using the test suite. For a cyclomatic complexity of 39, this would take 39 test cases; for a cyclomatic complexity of 11, this would take 11 test cases. This is almost 4 times the amount of tests needed.e
