Can I use this skill if my tests are currently failing?

No, this skill is designed for the Refactor phase of the BDD cycle; all scenarios must be in a passing (green) state before starting the refactoring process.

How does this skill handle duplicate scenario steps?

It identifies common preconditions and extracts them into Gherkin 'Background' blocks or parameterizes them in step definitions to reduce redundancy.

What quality standards does the skill enforce?

It checks for zero unused imports, no dead code, max cyclomatic complexity of 10, and ensures all scenarios remain passing throughout the process.

What is the primary purpose of the refactor-bdd skill?

It automates the cleanup and optimization of BDD-related code, covering feature implementation, step definitions, and Gherkin scenarios to eliminate technical debt.

Which specific files does this skill modify?

It targets three distinct layers: the feature implementation (production code), the step definition files (test code), and the Gherkin .feature files (business scenarios).

Refactors BDD components including Gherkin scenarios, step definitions, and feature code to eliminate technical debt while maintaining passing tests.

This skill provides a structured workflow for the 'Refactor' phase of Behavior-Driven Development (BDD). It guides Claude through a rigorous three-layer cleanup process: pruning technical debt in production code, modularizing step definitions into reusable helpers, and optimizing Gherkin feature files through backgrounds and scenario outlines. By enforcing a strict 'excellence or nothing' policy, it ensures codebase maintainability and readability without breaking existing functionality, making it an essential tool for teams practicing sustainable BDD.
