Hi,

I am unfamiliar with many software development philosophies/approaches such as these:

DDD - Domain Driven ~~Development~~ Design
TDD - Test Driven Development
BDD - Behavior Driven Development
Other 3-letter acronym that ends with "development"
and many more

My question is, when will you get to decide to choose what kind of philosophy/approach to follow? Espceially the top 3 approach in the list: What is TDD for? Why use DDD for this problem?

Mainly your answer would be a case-to-case basis or maybe that there is no single universal philosophy/approach to consider.

In that case, could you just tell me what type of project/scenario and why did you use that philosophy/approach.
