I've tried TDD for one project and it gave me a nice feeling of having a safety net. It was a good feeling. The problems started to appear when the project increased in complexity and needed a redesign in some of it's parts. I had to do _again_ twice the work to have the tests match the code behavior.

The article mentions this problem too. The benefit of the tests disappear when your code changes beyond refactoring.

Then why didn't you drop the tests if you think there was no benefit?
