SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Creates prioritized test lists for features using ZOMBIES ordering and Transformation Priority Premise to guide TDD planning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Domain-aligned test generation: analyze feature requirements and output a checklist of tests ordered from simplest to most complex.
  • ZOMBIES ordering: applies Zero→One→Many→Boundaries→Interface→Exceptions→Simple flow to structure tests.
  • Transformation Priority Premise sequencing: prioritizes tests to drive simpler code changes first and progressively test more complex behavior.

Quick Start

Provide a feature description and have the planner generate a prioritized test checklist.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prioritize tests for TDD using ZOMBIES ordering?

Test lists for TDD are prioritized by mapping requirements to business-domain test names using ZOMBIES ordering and Transformation Priority Premise, applying outside-in sequencing at the use-case level to guide progressive code changes.

What is the Transformation Priority Premise in test-driven development?

The Transformation Priority Premise in test-driven development is a sequencing method that prioritizes tests to drive simpler code transformations first, progressively testing more complex behavior throughout the workflow.

How do I generate a test checklist for a new feature requirement?

You generate a test checklist by analyzing feature requirements and outputting a prioritized checklist of tests ordered from simplest to most complex, ensuring stakeholder goals are reflected in unambiguous test descriptions.

Does ZOMBIES test ordering work at the use-case level?

Yes, ZOMBIES test ordering applies primarily at the use-case level to guide TDD workflows, mapping requirements to business-domain test names to ensure stakeholder goals are reflected in clear, unambiguous test descriptions.

Can I use Transformation Priority Premise to align tests with domain vocabulary?

Yes, you can use Transformation Priority Premise to align tests with domain vocabulary by mapping requirements to business-domain test names that satisfy domain vocabulary constraints while maintaining outside-in ordering.

What is the best way to sequence test cases for outside-in development?

The best way to sequence test cases for outside-in development is to apply the Transformation Priority Premise alongside ZOMBIES ordering, prioritizing tests that drive simpler code changes first before testing more complex behavior.
