Implements new bashunit assertion functions using a rigorous test-driven development (TDD) workflow.
The Bashunit Assertion Creator skill automates the expansion of the bashunit testing framework by guiding the creation of new assertion capabilities. It enforces a strict TDD methodology—encompassing planning, pattern analysis, and red-green-refactor cycles—to ensure every new function is robust, compatible with Bash 3.0+, and professionally documented. By standardizing how assertions are added, it ensures consistent error messaging, proper return codes, and comprehensive test coverage for both success and failure states.
