test-scaffolding

Test scaffolding analyzes your source code to auto-generate language-specific test templates. Run the scaffold-tests workflow against your project; it detects frameworks, extracts public APIs, and outputs ready-to-fill test skeletons in your test directories while preserving repository structure.

Scaffold generation supports Python (pytest), TypeScript (vitest/jest), Go (testing), Rust, and Dart (flutter_test/test). Each generates framework-compatible test templates mapped to your project's public APIs and package structure.

Yes. Test scaffolding is language-aware and processes multi-language repositories in a single run. It detects each language's package manifests, generates appropriate framework-specific skeletons, and outputs a unified manifest tracking all generated files and unit counts.

Test scaffolding maintains your source directory structure in generated test files, mapping public symbols to corresponding test locations. This preserves navigation hierarchy and simplifies integration with your existing project layout and CI/CD automation.

The workflow generates language-specific test skeleton files placed in corresponding test directories and produces a JSON manifest listing generated files, skipped files, and unit counts. This manifest enables downstream automation and provides full traceability of scaffold generation.

Test scaffolding auto-detects installed frameworks through package manifests (package.json, pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml, etc.). It generates skeletons compatible with your detected framework; you may install additional test dependencies after scaffold generation if needed.
