TDD type methodology for WPF / Silverlight

Has anyone got a TDD-ish methodology for designing complex WPF xaml components (i.e., ControlTemplates, Custom Controls with dependency properties)?

Is eyeballing the UI the closest you can come to asserting your code is correct? How about inc开发者_高级运维remental development; any aids to dividing up the logic incrementally?

If there isn't any methodologies for doing this now, do you think there will be as the platform continues to mature and gain adoption?

To be more focused and avoid introductions to TDD, please consider the topic for an audience that is fairly seasoned in applying TDD to a traditional code base (including MVVM).

And for TDD in general look at this book: The art of Unit Testing...
