I started to listen to the guy but couldn't stand it anymore in the crap he was spouting.
If you are a seasoned developer. I mean a developer with tons of experience and a stream of successful projects then you realize that what this guy is saying, is that you use up 90% of your development resources on something that never was a problem in the first place.
Your projects becomes so complex with additional crap for these unit tests on all levels that no understand the code anymore. They just change something and pray that it turns green. If it turn red then they are going to wiggle something hoping that this time it turns green. When it is green then they assume that it is not going to wipe out civilization by some yet unseen bug.
The only things these green unit tests does is is make the manager happy by showing that it is all green. If these manager would realize what is below that shiny green light I think they will live in terror.
There is nothing AGILE in the AGILE process, just a a placebo to find excuse why your projects development are so slow and keeps on failing.
