How does Coverage Loop decide what to test first?

The skill follows a strict priority order: it targets core business logic first, followed by error handling, edge cases, and utilities, while skipping generated code and configuration files.

Does it write all the tests in one go?

No, it focuses on one uncovered area per iteration. This ensures each test is verified and the coverage increase is confirmed before moving to the next task.

Where can I see the results of the coverage loop?

The skill appends detailed progress to a 'progress.txt' file, including before and after percentages and descriptions of which specific functions were tested in each iteration.

Can I set a specific coverage target?

Yes, you can provide a target percentage (e.g., 80%) and the skill will continue its loop until that number is reached or it identifies that progress is blocked.

Security & Testing

Increases test coverage iteratively by identifying code gaps and writing targeted tests until a specific percentage is achieved.

Coverage Loop is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to systematically improve codebase reliability through an automated, iterative feedback loop. It handles the tedious process of running coverage reports, identifying high-priority uncovered business logic, and writing individual tests for each gap until a user-defined target is met. By prioritizing meaningful testing over vanity metrics, it focuses on core application logic and error handling first, providing a transparent audit trail of progress via a dedicated log file.
