Even if you use TDD for your development, there are tons that a test team can still work on. Load balance, high volume, performance testing, manual and automated testing should still be done by the test team. But your test team will appreciate it because your app should be cleaner with less for them to track.

Hi,

TDD may ensure that your business logic is correct. But still we need to test our application for many scenarios like GUI testing, Functionality testing, Regression testing and other tests as Stephan mentioned.

Let's not forget about exploratory testing.
