SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Kotlin testing can be verbose and error-prone; this Skill codifies idiomatic patterns with Kotest, MockK, and TDD to deliver reliable, maintainable tests.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • TDD-driven testing: Start with red tests and drive implementation using Kotest and MockK.
  • Coroutine & Property-based testing: Includes runTest, coroutine mocking, and property-based checks to improve coverage.
  • Best practices & examples: Provides runnable examples and guidance for common Kotlin testing scenarios, including coverage with Kover.

Quick Start

Create a small Kotest spec and run the Gradle test task to verify the setup.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write idiomatic Kotlin tests with Kotest and MockK?

Idiomatic Kotlin testing with Kotest and MockK involves applying TDD patterns to drive implementation, ensuring reliable and maintainable tests. You start with red tests and use MockK for mocking, leveraging runnable examples for common scenarios.

What is the best way to test Kotlin coroutines using runTest?

Testing Kotlin coroutines using runTest automates reliable workflow patterns by providing virtual time control. This Skill includes coroutine testing support to handle asynchronous code execution and mocking within your unit and integration tests.

How does property-based testing work in Kotlin?

Property-based testing in Kotlin generates random inputs to verify code properties across a wide range of scenarios, improving coverage. This approach is integrated with Kotest to perform automated checks that expose edge cases in your code.

Do I need Kover to enforce code coverage thresholds in Kotlin?

You need Kover to enforce code coverage thresholds in Kotlin projects. This Skill requires a Kover configuration to automate coverage enforcement, ensuring your unit and integration tests meet specific reliability standards during Gradle builds.

Can I use TDD patterns for both unit and integration tests in Kotlin?

You can use TDD patterns for both unit and integration tests in Kotlin. This Skill automates testing workflows across Kotlin projects, applying TDD with Kotest and MockK to deliver maintainable and reliable code verification.
