What problem does it solve?
Audits a codebase’s test suite to reveal whether the tests exercise user-facing paths and catch regressions that matter in production, not just library-level behavior. It helps teams surface path-from-user gaps and identify test smells that undermine confidence in software quality.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Phase-0 calibration: establish a baseline model of the test suite and its escape hatches.
- Phase-1 understanding: map entry points, critical paths, and external dependencies.
- Phase-2 behavior inventory: classify behaviors by criticality, user reachability, and external touchpoints.
- Phase-3 test audit: identify tautologies, weak assertions, over-mocking, and slice-testing pitfalls.
- Phase-4 coverage matrix: measure behavior coverage across unit/integration/e2e levels and path-from-user viability.
- Phase-5 recommendations: delete or rewrite weak tests, add missing end-to-end tests, and tighten processes.
- Phase-6 honest smell report: surface actionable gaps with evidence-backed rationale.
