I think you're missing the point of TDD. TDD is not about writing tests - it's about designing your classes to be testable. This naturally leads to a better design and implementation.

It sounds like you're doing it backwards.

Your steps should be:

1. Design your domain model
2. Design your classes
3. Write some tests
4. Implement some class logic
5. Refactor your classes to make them more testable where necessary
6. Repeat Steps 3-5
