What is the difference between Agile and Test-Driven Development?

[Daragh]

According to this article by Quora, Agile and Test Driven Development are the same. Would you agree?

If they are different, how are they different and why?

[Jari]

Agile is not something you do, where as Test Driven Development is exactly that. It’s not easy to compare them, but one could say an Agile team can do Test Driven Development. They don’t need to do, of course.

Waterfall cannot use TDD?

[Jari]

Nobody talked about Waterfall here, the point – and original question-  was about the difference between Agile and TDD.

It’s possible to do TDD, but it’s not possible to do Agile. That’s one rather big difference.
