This Skill enforces a test-driven development workflow, ensuring production code is written in response to failing tests.
Write a failing test that describes the desired behavior, implement the minimum code to pass, and then refactor if beneficial.

To enforce test-driven development, you must write a failing test before implementing production code, add the minimum code required to pass it, and then refactor to improve design and maintainability.
The red-green-refactor cycle is a test-driven development workflow where you write a failing test, implement the minimal production code to make it pass, and then iteratively refactor the codebase to improve overall quality.
You can apply test-driven development to bug fixes and refactoring tasks, not just new features. The workflow ensures every code change begins with a failing test that defines the expected behavior before implementation.
Start by writing a failing unit test that describes your desired behavior, implement the minimum production code to pass the test, and refactor if beneficial, a process applicable across all programming languages.
Writing minimal production code to pass tests prevents over-engineering and ensures every line of implementation is directly driven by a test requirement, which ultimately improves code quality and maintainability during the refactor phase.
