mandatory-tdd

To enforce Test-Driven Development before code commits, you must mandate test execution and verify a minimum coverage threshold. This ensures all code changes pass tests and provide coverage reports prior to merging or closing issues.

Yes, you can use BDD syntax for both Python/FastAPI backend and TypeScript/React frontend workflows. The testing process enforces human-readable describe/it blocks to verify behavior across your full stack.

The best way to require proof of passing tests for issue closures is to enforce a workflow that demands passing status and coverage reports. This prevents regressions by ensuring code quality through mandatory test verification.

You run pytest with coverage reports for a FastAPI backend feature by executing `python3 -m pytest tests/test_your_feature.py -v --cov=app.your.module --cov-report=term-missing`. This command provides the required proof of test execution and coverage.

Enforcing a minimum coverage threshold during TDD development prevents regressions and ensures rigorous code quality. By mandating sufficient coverage before commits, you guarantee that new features are thoroughly validated against failing tests written initially.
