Guides the Red phase of TDD by enabling you to write failing unit tests directly from Gherkin (BDD) feature files before any implementation exists.
Create or open a Gherkin feature file, then invoke the skill to generate the initial failing tests.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To write failing unit tests from Gherkin feature files, the skill reads scenarios from your features directory and translates Given-When-Then steps into isolated, deterministic tests that fail immediately.
The Red phase in test-driven development is the initial step of writing a failing unit test that defines required behavior before any implementation code exists, ensuring immediate failure feedback.
Start test-driven development with BDD scenarios by placing Gherkin feature files in your features directory and invoking the skill to generate the initial failing unit tests anchoring your workflow.
No, you do not need existing implementation code to generate unit tests from Gherkin. The skill enforces the test-driven development red-phase workflow by requiring a failing test before implementation begins.
Your unit tests should fail for the right reason during TDD to validate that they accurately express the required behavior translated from Gherkin scenarios and provide clear, immediate failure feedback.
Yes, you can use Gherkin scenarios for test-driven development without a specific framework, as the skill focuses on translating Given-When-Then scenarios into structured failing unit tests with clear naming conventions.
