Abstract	In the fast pace business world of today where competition and technology are at their zenith, software development companies need to improve their quality standards in addition to cost reduction in operations. To achieve these challenging objectives various developments are on the verge. In recent past agile methodologies have emerged as one of the most efficient implementations in the world of software development arena. Especially eXtreme programming (XP) which is integrated by test first approach recent research proves the emergence of test driven development (TDD) from this concept which is based on formalizing the requirement as a test and secondly to write such a code that can pass the test. This attempt of our research provides a mechanism to reduce the cost of testing, mainly due to troublesome test which fails again and again. We used TDD, analyzed the problem and proposed a workable solution. Test driven development is a technique which encourages less documentation resulting in a lot of difficulties for developers in contrast to traditional methods. In order to reduce the burden on developers we have proposed some steps in documentation
