You can audit tests for coverage gaps and fragility by reviewing the suite against source code and implementation plans to identify missing critical paths, assess assertion focus, and detect mock hygiene issues. This process highlights misalignment with developer intent and suggests specific fixes to improve test quality.

Test quality review is the process of assessing existing tests for naming conventions, assertion focus, and structural fragility. By identifying issues like poor mock hygiene and coverage gaps against source code, it ensures tests align with developer intent, preventing bugs and improving overall code maintainability.

To check if tests match the original design plan and code behavior, verify intent alignment by comparing the test assertions against the implementation plan and source code. This review identifies misalignment in test naming, assertion focus, and coverage gaps, suggesting specific fixes to ensure tests reflect developer intent.

Yes, you can get specific fixes for test fragility and poor mock hygiene by running a detailed review of the test suite. The review identifies these exact quality issues, checks for coverage gaps against the source code, and offers actionable suggestions to apply the necessary corrections.

The limitations of automated test suite reviews include a dependency on the accuracy of the provided source code and implementation plans to identify coverage gaps and intent alignment. Without accurate reference files, the review cannot effectively assess assertion focus, mock hygiene, or suggest specific fixes.

Yes, test review works with existing source code and implementation plans by analyzing them to identify coverage gaps and verify that tests align with developer intent. It cross-references the tests against these inputs to detect issues in naming, assertion focus, and mock hygiene, then suggests specific fixes.
