But the article isn't about not religiously following TDD. It's about why "I don’t write any unit tests or specs". Testing isn't discontinuously one or the other. There's a huge, continuous spectrum in between the two extremes.

He said that integration tests cover the tests he needs and that unit tests don't add much, while being time consuming. And he never said one word about "spec".

The article has been edited since I wrote my comment. That was an exact quote from the article at the time. (And I'm pretty sure there was no mention of integration testing at that point, either.)

Ahh, the joys of web page impermanence.
