SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Writes tests that verify real public interfaces against actual components, avoiding mocks to ensure correct behavior and contracts in integration scenarios, particularly for MIRA.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Tests against real interfaces using actual components
  • No mocks; integration-style verification
  • Enforce observable contracts and precise assertions
  • Promote production readiness through end-to-end validation

Quick Start

Write a test that exercises a real public interface (e.g., a service) and run pytest without mocks to validate contract behavior.
