TestDrivenDevelopment

Test-driven development helps write robust, maintainable code by forcing you to write failing tests before implementation, ensuring your codebase remains highly testable and functionally correct from the start.

You can structure unit, integration, and property-based tests in Rust by following specific test organization conventions that separate test categories logically within your project to ensure optimal coverage and maintainability.

You should write edge case tests during software development as part of the test categorization process to verify that your code correctly handles boundary conditions and unexpected inputs alongside standard unit and integration tests.

Common testing anti-patterns in TDD include writing tests after implementation, creating overly complex tests, and ignoring test coverage strategies, all of which undermine the goal of producing robust and maintainable code.

Yes, you can use test-driven development for adding new features to legacy shell test suites by following the provided workflows to write failing tests first and structure your new tests effectively within the existing project.
