Many extreme-programming practices have been around for some time; the methodology takes "[[best practices]]" to extreme levels. For example, the "practice of test-first development, planning and writing tests before each micro-increment" was used as early as NASA's [[Project Mercury]], in the early 1960s.{{sfn| Larman | Basili|2003}} To shorten the total development time, some formal test documents (such as for [[acceptance testing]]) have been developed in parallel with (or shortly before) the software being ready for testing. A NASA independent test group can write the test procedures, based on formal requirements and logical limits, before programmers write the software and integrate it with the hardware. XP takes this concept to the extreme level, writing automated tests (sometimes inside software modules) which validate the operation of even small sections of software coding, rather than only testing the larger features.
