SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Enables reliable feature development by enforcing a test-first workflow that requires a failing test before implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Red-Green-Refactor discipline to guide every change
  • Safe refactoring and behavior verification during feature work, bug fixes, and improvements
  • Real-world guidance for Flutter/Dart projects and other codebases adopting TDD

Quick Start

Write a failing test for the new feature, then implement the minimal code to pass it, and refactor for readability.

FAQPage Schema
How do I start test-driven development for a new feature?

To start test-driven development, write a failing unit test for the new feature, implement the minimal code required to pass it, and then refactor the implementation for readability and safety.

What is the Red-Green-Refactor cycle in unit testing?

The Red-Green-Refactor cycle is a test-driven development workflow where you write a failing test, implement minimal passing code, and deliberately refactor the codebase while maintaining behavioral verification.

Can I use test-driven development for Flutter and Dart projects?

Yes, test-driven development is explicitly applicable to Flutter and Dart projects, providing real-world guidance for safe refactoring and behavior verification during feature work and bug fixes.

Does test-driven development work for bug fixes and refactoring?

Test-driven development works for bug fixes and refactoring by enforcing a test-first workflow that requires a failing test before implementation, ensuring safe behavior verification during improvements.

Why write a failing test before implementing code?

Writing a failing test before implementation solves the problem of unreliable code behavior by enforcing a test-first workflow, ensuring every behavioral change is guided by deliberate verification.
