Test-Driven Development is enforced by adhering to a strict Red-Green-Refactor cycle, requiring you to write a failing test before any implementation. This ensures every new feature is backed by a failing test first, eliminating technical debt.

The Red-Green-Refactor cycle works by first writing a failing test that captures the bug or refactoring goal, then writing minimal implementation code to pass the test, and finally cleaning up the code. This verifies test failures before implementation.

TDD applies to both backend and frontend environments, including E2E testing for frontend components. You can define expected behavior in a test file for a new API endpoint, watch it fail, and write minimal code to pass.

The best way to prevent unverified code is to define the expected behavior in a test file first, watch it fail, and then write the minimal code required to pass. This regression-proof approach ensures robust feature development.

Yes, this TDD approach supports browser-harness integration specifically for E2E testing of frontend components and mobile responsiveness. It provides a strict framework to verify test failures before writing the implementation code.

Writing a failing test case first is required to eliminate the technical debt and unverified code that results from writing implementation before testing. It ensures production code quality and reliability by verifying failures before implementation.
