SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of test scaffolding for rule extraction, saving time and ensuring comprehensive coverage.

Core Features & Use Cases

Test Scaffolding: Generates pre-extraction test cases from guidance files without the need for an existing source file.
Pre-extraction: Assists in validating coverage intent before running rule extraction.
Use Case: For a new rule set, use this Skill to create test cases that will be part of the full test suite later on.

Quick Start

To generate sample tests for the 'snap' domain, run the skill with the command: /create-sample-tests snap.

FAQPage Schema

How do I generate sample test cases for rule extraction before writing source files?▼

Generate sample test cases for rule extraction by using a skill that reads guidance files, naming manifests, and skeleton files to create flat key-value input-output pairs for testing. This validates coverage intent pre-extraction without requiring existing source files.

What is pre-extraction test scaffolding for rules as code?▼

Pre-extraction test scaffolding for rules as code is the automated creation of test cases from domain guidance files to validate coverage intent before rule extraction occurs. It outputs flat key-value pairs using constants and output variables.

How do I automate test case generation from guidance files?▼

Automate test case generation from guidance files by running the skill with a target domain name. It processes naming manifests, output variables, and skeleton files to produce flat key-value input-output pairs for the test suite.

Can I create test cases for a new ruleset without an existing source file?▼

Yes, you can create test cases for a new ruleset without an existing source file. The skill generates pre-extraction test scaffolding directly from domain guidance files, allowing you to build the test suite before writing source code.

Does sample test generation work with naming manifests and output variables?▼

Yes, sample test generation works directly with naming manifests and output variables. It uses these components, alongside constants and skeleton files from the guidance folder, to generate flat key-value input-output pairs for testing.

When should I use automated sample testing over manual test case creation?▼

Use automated sample testing when setting up a new rule set to save time and ensure comprehensive coverage. It automates flat key-value test pair creation from guidance files, validating rules as code before extraction rather than building tests manually.
