SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enforces the Test-Driven Development (TDD) methodology, ensuring code is written with robust testing from the outset, leading to higher quality and fewer bugs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Red-Green-Refactor Workflow: Guides the user through the essential TDD cycle.
  • Automated Testing: Integrates with build tools (like Gradle) to run tests.
  • Review Modes: Offers different levels of oversight (interactive, batch, autonomous) to suit the user's needs.
  • Use Case: When developing a new feature, this skill will prompt you to write a failing test first, then write the minimum code to pass it, and finally refactor, ensuring the feature is well-tested and maintainable.

Quick Start

Use the tdd skill to write a new feature, starting with a failing test.

FAQPage Schema
How does test-driven development improve code quality and maintainability?▼

Test-driven development improves code quality by mandating tests before implementation, guiding you through the Red-Green-Refactor cycle to ensure robust testing from the outset and fewer bugs.

How do I start writing a new feature using the Red-Green-Refactor cycle?▼

To start writing a feature using the Red-Green-Refactor cycle, write a failing test first, implement the minimum code required to pass that test, and finally refactor the implementation for better maintainability.

Can I automate test execution with build tools during the TDD workflow?▼

Yes, you can automate test execution during the TDD workflow. The process integrates directly with build tools like Gradle to run tests automatically after writing your initial failing tests and implementation code.

What review modes are available for managing the test-driven development workflow?▼

Available review modes for managing the test-driven development workflow include interactive, batch, and autonomous modes. These options provide different levels of oversight to suit your specific development needs.

When should I choose batch mode over autonomous mode for test-driven development?▼

You should choose batch mode over autonomous mode for test-driven development when you need grouped processing with periodic reviews, whereas autonomous mode handles the entire Red-Green-Refactor cycle with minimal manual intervention.
