SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Test-driven development workflow guidance that helps teams implement new features and fix bugs by writing tests first, ensuring code quality from the start.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Red-Green-Refactor cycle: Guides the iterative process of writing a failing test, making code pass, and refactoring safely.
  • Test scaffolding patterns: Provides templates and examples for common test cases, edge cases, and error handling.
  • Workflow discipline across tasks: Applicable to feature development, bug fixes, and maintenance tasks requiring high test coverage.

Quick Start

Ask for a TDD plan for a feature, and the skill will outline the red-green-refactor steps, test cases to write, and suggested refactoring changes.
