SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a practical Rust-based guide to apply Test-Driven Development (TDD) and Tidy First principles, helping developers write reliable, well-structured Rust code from the start.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • TDD workflow guidance: Step-by-step Red-Green-Refactor cycle tailored to Rust projects.
  • Rust testing patterns: Demonstrates common test structures, assertions, and async tests with Tokio.
  • Code quality discipline: Emphasizes clean, maintainable code via structural changes before behavioral changes.
  • Use Case: A Rust engineer starts a new module and uses the guide to write failing tests first, write minimal code to satisfy them, and then refactor.

Quick Start

Run the Rust test examples in the provided guide to see how to structure tests and gradually implement code to satisfy them.

FAQPage Schema
How do I practice TDD in Rust using the Red-Green-Refactor cycle?

Test-driven development in Rust starts with writing failing tests, implementing minimal code to pass them, and then refactoring. This structured cycle ensures reliable, well-structured code from the start.

What are common Rust testing patterns for structuring tests and async functions?

Common Rust testing patterns include standard test structures, specific assertions, and async tests using Tokio. These patterns help organize tests clearly and validate asynchronous functionality effectively.

Do I need a specific Rust toolchain to start writing tests first?

Yes, you need a standard Rust toolchain including cargo and rustc, along with standard testing infrastructure. These tools are required to compile code and execute the test suite.

How do I maintain code quality in Rust by separating structural and behavioral changes?

Code quality discipline emphasizes making structural changes before behavioral changes. This refactor-friendly approach keeps Rust code clean and maintainable while developing new features.

What is the best way to structure a new Rust module using Tidy First principles?

The Tidy First approach promotes clean, maintainable code by applying structural improvements before adding new behavior. It guides developers to refactor existing Rust code before implementing new functionality.
