SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill ensures development follows test-driven development (TDD) principles, driving reliable code with high test coverage and structured workflows that reduce regressions and accelerate safe refactoring.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces a TDD-first approach across feature development, bug fixes, and refactoring cycles.
  • Defines a scalable testing workflow that covers unit, integration, and end-to-end tests with clear progress gates.
  • Provides a repeatable process for writing user journeys, generating test cases, implementing code, and validating coverage.

Quick Start

Start by writing a user journey and corresponding tests before implementing any feature.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce test-driven development across feature development and refactoring?

To enforce test-driven development, you must write a user journey and corresponding tests before implementing any feature, bug fix, or refactor. This approach drives reliable code through a structured workflow with clear progress gates.

What is the best way to maintain 80 percent test coverage across unit and integration tests?

Maintaining 80 percent test coverage requires specifying test types and validation checks across unit, integration, and end-to-end tests. A scalable testing workflow with clear progress gates ensures coverage thresholds are met during implementation.

Can I use a TDD workflow for both new API endpoints and bug fixes?

Yes, a TDD workflow applies to new API endpoints, components, bug fixes, and refactoring cycles. It provides a repeatable process for writing user journeys, generating test cases, implementing code, and validating coverage for these tasks.

How does a structured testing workflow reduce regressions during safe refactoring?

A structured testing workflow reduces regressions by enforcing a test-first approach with defined validation checks and coverage thresholds. Generating test cases before implementation accelerates safe refactoring by catching failures early.

Do I need to write end-to-end tests before implementing new components?

You should write user journeys and corresponding tests before implementing new components. The workflow specifies coverage across end-to-end, integration, and unit tests to guide the implementation and validate the final code.

What are the limitations of applying a TDD-first approach to existing codebases?

Applying a TDD-first approach to existing codebases requires writing user journeys and tests before refactoring. Without clear progress gates and coverage thresholds, driving reliable code and reducing regressions in legacy systems becomes difficult.
