I've recently finished watching the Autumn of Agile screencasts and I'm looking for more material of similar scope. Basically, I'm looking for screencasts that present TDD/BDD process while developing somewhat "real life" applications (or parts of them) - so no 20 minute intros please. I'm surprised not to find anything like that though. If you know of any resources that fit the requirement, please list them.

I've really been enjoying GeePawHill's DoubleDawgDare screencasts. They're refactoring legacy code, not TDD, but he definitely has the TDD ethos, and - well, they're worth a watch even if they're not quite what you're looking for.

Take a look at Katacasts. From the site:

The Katacasts series consists of performance katas, done as screencasts, by Enrique Comba and me, Corey Haines.

I haven't watched them yet, but knowing that Corey is big advocate of TDD and Craftsmanship, and at least one of the pages explicitly mentions doing the kata as TDD, I think you may find what you are looking for.

Miško Hevery, who is a developer at Google, has some great videos at his site.

Dave Astels has a Google tech talk called "Beyond Test Driven Development: Behaviour Driven Development".

At Dnr TV there are two episodes with JP Boodhoo, where he gives an introduction to test driven development:

Kent Beck started to work on his own TDD screencast. So far he put two unedited pieces of his tutorial on Vimeo but he promises to publish full edited versions soon.

Follow him on Twitter or Vimeo.

The guys over at TekPub make some great screencasts, and their 'Concepts'-series (http://tekpub.com/production/concepts) covers both unit testing and BDD.

We have a series of free and paid BDD screencasts at http://bddcasts.com. We're primarily ruby developers and our tools are cucumber and rspec.

Let's Code is a screencast "reality show" series where I'm developing real projects using TDD and other practices. The current project is a distributed application server for the needs of MMO games (over 15k LOC codebase). Each episode is about 25 minutes long and new episodes are released a couple per week (at the time of writing there are 10 episodes; about 4 hours).

Let's Play: Test-Driven Development is a screencast series where James Shore is using TDD in developing a small application. The current project is an application for estimating personal long-term finances. Each episode is about 15 minutes long and new episodes are released daily (at the time of writing there are 42 episodes; about 10 hours).
