What is the Red-Green-Refactor cycle in this skill?

It is a disciplined three-step process: first, write a test that fails (Red); second, write the minimal production code necessary to pass the test (Green); and third, improve the code structure while keeping the tests passing (Refactor).

Can I use this skill for bug fixing?

Yes. The TDD workflow is ideal for bug fixes by first writing a test that demonstrates the failure, then writing the fix to make that test pass, ensuring the bug is permanently resolved.

What is the AAA pattern mentioned in the documentation?

AAA stands for Arrange, Act, and Assert. It is a pattern for organizing tests where you first set up the data (Arrange), then execute the specific function (Act), and finally verify the result (Assert).

Does this skill work with multiple AI agents?

Yes, it includes a multi-agent pattern where different agents can be assigned roles like writing tests (Agent A), implementing code (Agent B), and optimizing logic (Agent C) for higher quality output.

Security & Testing

Implements Test-Driven Development principles using the Red-Green-Refactor cycle to ensure robust and maintainable code.

This skill provides a structured framework for Test-Driven Development (TDD) within Claude, enforcing the core Red-Green-Refactor cycle and the Three Laws of TDD. It guides the AI to write failing tests before production code, use the AAA (Arrange-Act-Assert) pattern, and perform incremental refactoring to improve code quality without breaking functionality. This workflow is particularly effective for building complex logic, implementing reliable bug fixes, and ensuring that AI-generated code meets strict behavioral specifications through automated verification.

Key Features

01Provides clear guidance on avoiding common testing anti-patterns

02Applies the Three Laws of TDD to ensure 100% test coverage for new code
