What problem does it solve?

Writing reliable software often suffers from drift between tests and production code. Harness TDD enforces that no production code exists without a failing test, integrating the red-green-refactor cycle with harness validation to maintain discipline and trust in the codebase.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Red-Green-Refactor workflow: A structured cycle that requires a failing test before any production code is added, followed by a green pass and refactor with safety checks.
  • Harness-Integrated Validation: On every change, harness checks enforce architectural boundaries, dependency constraints, and real-time feedback.
  • Targeted Use Cases: Ideal for feature development, bug fixes, and incremental enhancements that demand observable behavior before implementation.

Quick Start

Start the RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle by running the Harness TDD skill in your project to begin the validation-driven development process.
