What does this skill do for the Red phase?

It helps diagnose issues such as tests passing immediately when they should fail, syntax errors, or incorrect assertions that prevent a valid TDD start.

How does it help isolate failing tests?

It provides a step-by-step task flow to run only the failing test, add specific debug outputs, and pinpoint the exact failure point within the code logic.

Can it help with regression testing?

Yes, during the Green phase, it helps identify when new implementation code breaks existing tests and provides strategies to fix regressions without losing new progress.

When should I use the TDD Failure Recovery skill?

Use it whenever tests behave unexpectedly in any TDD phase, if a refactor breaks existing functionality, or when you need to safely rollback to a previous stable state.

How does the rollback protocol work?

The skill follows a structured process using git status, diff, and checkout to revert changes and verify that a 'green' state is restored before suggesting smaller, safer steps.

セキュリティとテスト

Recovers from unexpected test behaviors and TDD cycle issues using standardized rollback and diagnostic protocols.

概要

The TDD Failure Recovery skill empowers Claude to identify and resolve common Test-Driven Development pitfalls across the Red, Green, and Refactor phases. It provides a structured approach for diagnosing why tests pass prematurely or fail unexpectedly, offering automated rollback protocols to restore a known good state and isolation techniques for pinpointing exact failure points. This skill ensures developers maintain momentum by preventing common TDD regressions and providing clear paths back to a stable development flow.
