Can I use this skill for bug fixes?

Yes, it is highly recommended for bug fixes. You start by writing a failing test that reproduces the bug, which then acts as a permanent regression test once the fix is implemented.

What is the 'Iron Law' in this TDD skill?

The Iron Law states that no production code should be written without a failing test first. If code is written before the test, it must be deleted and rewritten following the TDD cycle.

Are there any exceptions to using TDD with this skill?

Exceptions typically include throwaway prototypes, auto-generated code, or basic configuration files, but you should generally consult with your human partner before skipping the process.

Why is watching the test fail (RED) mandatory?

Watching a test fail proves that the test is actually checking the intended behavior and isn't passing by accident or testing the wrong logic.

安全与测试

Enforces a strict Red-Green-Refactor workflow to ensure high-quality code through mandatory test-first implementation.

This skill integrates the rigorous discipline of Test-Driven Development (TDD) into Claude's workflow, ensuring that no production code is written without a preceding failing test. By following the 'Iron Law' of TDD, it guides the development process through the Red-Green-Refactor cycle, forcing the discovery of edge cases early and preventing the accumulation of technical debt. It is a vital tool for developers who prioritize reliability, documented behavior, and maintainable architectures in features, bug fixes, and refactoring tasks.
