SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Provides a structured approach for making safe, incremental improvements to ClaudeBar's existing features using TDD and domain design.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guides identifying improvement opportunities that do not require new features.
  • Advocates writing tests first, implementing changes, and validating with the full test suite.
  • Useful for UX tweaks, performance refinements, and code-quality improvements within an existing codebase.

Quick Start

Write a test for the desired improvement, implement the change, and run the full test suite to verify no regressions.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make safe code-quality improvements without breaking existing behavior?

Safe code-quality improvements require a test-driven approach where you write tests first, implement incremental refinements, and run the full test suite to verify no regressions occur.

What is the best way to apply test-driven development to UX refinements?

Test-driven development for UX refinements involves identifying specific improvements, writing tests for the expected behavior, implementing the change, and validating compatibility with existing tests.

Can I use this approach to add new features to my codebase?

No, this approach is strictly for incremental improvements to existing features. It focuses on UX, performance, and code-quality refinements that preserve current behavior without introducing new features.

How do I update documentation after making incremental performance refinements?

After implementing performance refinements and validating them with the test suite, update both the project documentation and the CHANGELOG to accurately reflect the incremental changes made.

Does incremental improvement with domain design require updating existing tests?

Incremental improvement with domain design requires preserving compatibility with existing tests. You write new tests first for the refinement, but you must maintain all existing test behavior.

When should I not use a test-driven approach for code refinements?

You should avoid this test-driven approach when your goal is introducing new features rather than refinements, as it is designed specifically for safe, incremental improvements to existing behavior.
