Can I use this for unit testing?

While BDD focuses on high-level business behavior and acceptance testing, it can complement unit-level TDD practices by providing the overarching structure for the feature being built.

What BDD frameworks are compatible with this skill?

The skill is designed to work with standard Gherkin-based frameworks, including Cucumber, Behave, and SpecFlow, and can adapt to the specific framework installed in your repository.

Is a requirement ID mandatory to use the BDD workflow?

Yes, the workflow requires a REQ-* key to maintain traceability. If one is missing, the skill will prompt you to use a requirement-extraction skill first.

How does this skill handle technical debt?

Phase 4 of the workflow is dedicated to refactoring. It specifically looks for unused code and complexity, ensuring the implementation is clean and maintainable before completing the task.

Security & Testing

Automates the complete Behavior-Driven Development lifecycle from Gherkin scenario creation to requirement-traced implementation and refactoring.

This skill provides an end-to-end orchestration of the BDD cycle, ensuring that software features are built directly from business requirements. It guides Claude through writing Given/When/Then scenarios, generating executable step definitions, implementing the actual code to pass tests, and performing a final refactor to eliminate technical debt. By enforcing requirement traceability with specific requirement keys, it bridges the gap between business stakeholders and developers, creating living documentation that remains in sync with the codebase.
