How does this skill improve my Git history?

The skill mandates a 'Commit' phase after every successful test-and-refactor cycle, resulting in a granular, descriptive history that makes debugging and reverts easier.

Does this support different testing frameworks?

Yes, the methodology is framework-agnostic and can be applied to any testing environment including Jest, Pytest, Vitest, or JUnit.

Can I use this for existing codebases?

Absolutely. It is highly effective for bug fixes and new feature additions in existing projects, ensuring that new code is reliable and doesn't break existing functionality.

Why is the Refactor step mandatory?

Refactoring prevents technical debt. After a test passes (Green), the code is often messy; the Refactor phase ensures the code remains clean, modular, and adheres to SOLID principles.

What is the Red-Green-Refactor-Commit cycle?

It is a four-step TDD process: write a failing test (Red), write minimal code to pass (Green), clean up the code (Refactor), and save progress with an atomic commit (Commit).

Seguridad y Pruebas

Enforces a rigorous Test-Driven Development (TDD) methodology through the Red-Green-Refactor-Commit cycle for high-quality software delivery.

Acerca de

This skill guides developers through a disciplined TDD workflow, ensuring that every functional change is preceded by a failing test and followed by code optimization and atomic commits. By adhering to the Red-Green-Refactor-Commit cycle, it helps minimize technical debt, improve software design, and maintain a clean Git history. It is an essential tool for developers and teams who prioritize reliability, maintainability, and incremental development in their coding process.
