Isolated TDD loop enables rapid iteration on small changes without requiring the full implement workflow, preventing scope creep and enabling safe regression fixes.
Run the test-tdd loop on a bug fix to execute a red-green-refactor cycle.

An isolated test-driven development loop automates red-green-refactor cycles for small bug fixes. It executes a four-phase process—plan, tracer bullet, loop, refactor—to iterate rapidly on small changes without requiring a full feature workflow.
The red-green-refactor cycle in unit testing requires writing a failing test first, making it pass with minimal code, then cleaning up the implementation. This approach enforces test-first discipline and enables safe regression fixes during debugging sessions.
Yes, a standalone TDD loop handles regression testing without a full feature workflow. It prevents scope creep by focusing on isolated refactors and small bug fixes, enabling rapid iteration on individual behaviors.
Test-driven development prevents horizontal slicing by enforcing a structured four-phase loop that drives one behavior per slice. This discipline ensures refactoring remains vertical and focused, keeping changes isolated and reliable.
The best way to integrate a TDD loop with end-to-end testing is to use it as a focused unit of work alongside other skills like implement, debug, and test-e2e. This provides isolated red-green-refactor cycles without triggering the full end-to-end workflow.
