Test-Driven Development

Overview

Write a failing test before writing the code that makes it pass. For bug fixes, reproduce the bug with a test before attempting a fix. Tests are proof — "seems right" is not done. A codebase with good tests is an AI agent's superpower; a codebase without tests is a liability.

When to Use

Implementing any new logic or behavior
Fixing any bug (the Prove-It Pattern)
Modifying existing functionality
Adding edge case handling
Any change that could break existing behavior

When NOT to use: Pure configuration changes, documentation updates, or static content changes that have no behavioral impact.

Discover the Stack First

The TDD cycle is universal; the commands are not. Before writing the first test, discover how this repository tests, and use its commands for every RED, GREEN, and verification step:

Language and build system — package.json, pom.xml/build.gradle, pyproject.toml, go.mod, Cargo.toml, Gemfile, a Makefile
Checked-in wrappers — prefer ./gradlew, ./mvnw, make test, or a repo script over globally installed tools
Test framework and configuration — and how it runs a single focused test vs the full suite
Existing conventions — where tests live, how files are named, what patterns neighboring tests follow
Documented commands — README, CONTRIBUTING, and CI workflows show the commands that actually gate merges

Run the repository's focused-test command during the loop and its full-suite command before completion. Never assume a default like npm test — a Gradle, Cargo, or pytest project has its own equivalent.

The examples below use TypeScript for illustration; the workflow is identical in any language once you've discovered the project's own tooling.

The TDD Cycle

    RED                GREEN              REFACTOR
 Write a test    Write minimal code    Clean up the
 that fails  ──→  to make it pass  ──→  implementation  ──→  (repeat)
      │                  │                    │
      ▼                  ▼                    ▼
   Test FAILS        Test PASSES         Tests still PASS

Step 1: RED — Write a Failing Test

Write the test first. It must fail. A test that passes immediately proves nothing.

// RED: This test fails because createTask doesn't exist yet
describe('TaskService', () => {
  it('creates a task with title and default status', async () => {
    const task = await taskService.createTask({ title: 'Buy groceries' });

    expect(task.id).toBeDefined();
    expect(task.title).toBe('Buy groceries');
    expect(task.status).toBe('pending');
    expect(task.createdAt).toBeInstanceOf(Date);
  });
});

Step 2: GREEN — Make It Pass

Write the minimum code to make the test pass. Don't over-engineer:

// GREEN: Minimal implementation
export async function createTask(input: { title: string }): Promise<Task> {
  const task = {
    id: generateId(),
    title: input.title,
    status: 'pending' as const,
    createdAt: new Date(),
  };
  await db.tasks.insert(task);
  return task;
}

Step 3: REFACTOR — Clean Up

With tests green, improve the code without changing behavior:

Extract shared logic
Improve naming
Remove duplication
Optimize if necessary

Run tests after every refactor step to confirm nothing broke.

The Prove-It Pattern (Bug Fixes)

When a bug is reported, do not start by trying to fix it. Start by writing a test that reproduces it.

Bug report arrives
       │
       ▼
  Write a test that demonstrates the bug
       │
       ▼
  Test FAILS (confirming the bug exists)
       │
       ▼
  Implement the fix
       │
       ▼
  Test PASSES (proving the fix works)
       │
       ▼
  Run full test suite (no regressions)

Example:

// Bug: "Completing a task doesn't update the completedAt timestamp"

// Step 1: Write the reproduction test (it should FAIL)
it('sets completedAt when task is completed', async () => {
  const task = await taskService.createTask({ title: 'Test' });
  const completed = await taskService.completeTask(task.id);

  expect(completed.status).toBe('completed');
  expect(completed.completedAt).toBeInstanceOf(Date);  // This fails → bug confirmed
});

// Step 2: Fix the bug
export async function completeTask(id: string): Promise<Task> {
  return db.tasks.update(id, {
    status: 'completed',
    completedAt: new Date(),  // This was missing
  });
}

// Step 3: Test passes → bug fixed, regression guarded

The Test Pyramid

Invest testing effort according to the pyramid — most tests should be small and fast, with progressively fewer tests at higher levels:

          ╱╲
         ╱  ╲         E2E Tests (~5%)
        ╱    ╲        Full user flows, real browser
       ╱──────╲
      ╱        ╲      Integration Tests (~15%)
     ╱          ╲     Component interactions, API boundaries
    ╱────────────╲
   ╱              ╲   Unit Tests (~80%)
  ╱                ╲  Pure logic, isolated, milliseconds each
 ╱──────────────────╲

The Beyonce Rule: If you liked it, you should have put a test on it. Infrastructure changes, refactoring, and migrations are not responsible for catching your bugs — your tests are. If a change breaks your code and you didn't have a test for it, that's on you.

Test Sizes (Resource Model)

Beyond the pyramid levels, classify tests by what resources they consume:

Size	Constraints	Speed	Example
Small	Single process, no I/O, no network, no database	Milliseconds	Pure function tests, data transforms
Medium	Multi-process OK, localhost only, no external services	Seconds	API tests with test DB, component tests
Large	Multi-machine OK, external services allowed	Minutes	E2E tests, performance benchmarks, staging integration

Small tests should make up the vast majority of your suite. They're fast, reliable, and easy to debug when they fail.

Decision Guide

Is it pure logic with no side effects?
  → Unit test (small)

Does it cross a boundary (API, database, file system)?
  → Integration test (medium)

Is it a critical user flow that must work end-to-end?
  → E2E test (large) — limit these to critical paths

Writing Good Tests

Test State, Not Interactions

Assert on the outcome of an operation, not on which methods were called internally. Tests that verify method call sequences break when you refactor, even if the behavior is unchanged.

// Good: Tests what the function does (state-based)
it('returns tasks sorted by creation date, newest first', async () => {
  const tasks = await listTasks({ sortBy: 'createdAt', sortOrder: 'desc' });
  expect(tasks[0].createdAt.getTime())
    .toBeGreaterThan(tasks[1].createdAt.getTime());
});

// Bad: Tests how the function works internally (interaction-based)
it('calls db.query with ORDER BY created_at DESC', async () => {
  await listTasks({ sortBy: 'createdAt', sortOrder: 'desc' });
  expect(db.query).toHaveBeenCalledWith(
    expect.stringContaining('ORDER BY created_at DESC')
  );
});

DAMP Over DRY in Tests

In production code, DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) is usually right. In tests, DAMP (Descriptive And Meaningful Phrases) is better. A test should read like a specification — each test should tell a complete story without requiring the reader to trace through shared helpers.

// DAMP: Each test is self-contained and readable
it('rejects tasks with empty titles', () => {
  const input = { title: '', assignee: 'user-1' };
  expect(() => createTask(input)).toThrow('Title is required');
});

it('trims whitespace from titles', () => {
  const input = { title: '  Buy groceries  ', assignee: 'user-1' };
  const task = createTask(input);
  expect(task.title).toBe('Buy groceries');
});

// Over-DRY: Shared setup obscures what each test actually verifies
// (Don't do this just to avoid repeating the input shape)

Duplication in tests is acceptable when it makes each test independently understandable.

Prefer Real Implementations Over Mocks

Use the simplest test double that gets the job done. The more your tests use real code, the more confidence they provide.

Preference order (most to least preferred):
1. Real implementation  → Highest confidence, catches real bugs
2. Fake                 → In-memory version of a dependency (e.g., fake DB)
3. Stub                 → Returns canned data, no behavior
4. Mock (interaction)   → Verifies method calls — use sparingly

Use mocks only when: the real implementation is too slow, non-deterministic, or has side effects you can't control (external APIs, email sending). Over-mocking creates tests that pass while production breaks.

Use the Arrange-Act-Assert Pattern

it('marks overdue tasks when deadline has passed', () => {
  // Arrange: Set up the test scenario
  const task = createTask({
    title: 'Test',
    deadline: new Date('2025-01-01'),
  });

  // Act: Perform the action being tested
  const result = checkOverdue(task, new Date('2025-01-02'));

  // Assert: Verify the outcome
  expect(result.isOverdue).toBe(true);
});

One Assertion Per Concept

// Good: Each test verifies one behavior
it('rejects empty titles', () => { ... });
it('trims whitespace from titles', () => { ... });
it('enforces maximum title length', () => { ... });

// Bad: Everything in one test
it('validates titles correctly', () => {
  expect(() => createTask({ title: '' })).toThrow();
  expect(createTask({ title: '  hello  ' }).title).toBe('hello');
  expect(() => createTask({ title: 'a'.repeat(256) })).toThrow();
});

Name Tests Descriptively

// Good: Reads like a specification
describe('TaskService.completeTask', () => {
  it('sets status to completed and records timestamp', ...);
  it('throws NotFoundError for non-existent task', ...);
  it('is idempotent — completing an already-completed task is a no-op', ...);
  it('sends notification to task assignee', ...);
});

// Bad: Vague names
describe('TaskService', () => {
  it('works', ...);
  it('handles errors', ...);
  it('test 3', ...);
});

Test Anti-Patterns to Avoid

Anti-Pattern	Problem	Fix
Testing implementation details	Tests break when refactoring even if behavior is unchanged	Test inputs and outputs, not internal structure
Flaky tests (timing, order-dependent)	Erode trust in the test suite	Use deterministic assertions, isolate test state
Testing framework code	Wastes time testing third-party behavior	Only test YOUR code
Snapshot abuse	Large snapshots nobody reviews, break on any change	Use snapshots sparingly and review every change
No test isolation	Tests pass individually but fail together	Each test sets up and tears down its own state
Mocking everything	Tests pass but production breaks	Prefer real implementations > fakes > stubs > mocks. Mock only at boundaries where real deps are slow or non-deterministic

Browser Testing with DevTools

For anything that runs in a browser, unit tests alone aren't enough — you need runtime verification. Use Chrome DevTools MCP to give your agent eyes into the browser: DOM inspection, console logs, network requests, performance traces, and screenshots.

The DevTools Debugging Workflow

1. REPRODUCE: Navigate to the page, trigger the bug, screenshot
2. INSPECT: Console errors? DO

# Test-Driven Development

## Overview

Write a failing test before writing the code that makes it pass. For bug fixes, reproduce the bug with a test before attempting a fix. Tests are proof — "seems right" is not done. A codebase with good tests is an AI agent's superpower; a codebase without tests is a liability.

## When to Use

- Implementing any new logic or behavior
- Fixing any bug (the Prove-It Pattern)
- Modifying existing functionality
- Adding edge case handling
- Any change that could break existing behavior

**When NOT to use:** Pure configuration changes, documentation updates, or static content changes that have no behavioral impact.

**Related:** For browser-based changes, combine TDD with runtime verification using Chrome DevTools MCP — see the Browser Testing section below.

## Discover the Stack First

The TDD cycle is universal; the commands are not. Before writing the first test, discover how *this* repository tests, and use its commands for every RED, GREEN, and verification step:

- **Language and build system** — `package.json`, `pom.xml`/`build.gradle`, `pyproject.toml`, `go.mod`, `Cargo.toml`, `Gemfile`, a `Makefile`
- **Checked-in wrappers** — prefer `./gradlew`, `./mvnw`, `make test`, or a repo script over globally installed tools
- **Test framework and configuration** — and how it runs a single focused test vs the full suite
- **Existing conventions** — where tests live, how files are named, what patterns neighboring tests follow
- **Documented commands** — README, CONTRIBUTING, and CI workflows show the commands that actually gate merges

Run the repository's focused-test command during the loop and its full-suite command before completion. Never assume a default like `npm test` — a Gradle, Cargo, or pytest project has its own equivalent.

The examples below use TypeScript for illustration; the workflow is identical in any language once you've discovered the project's own tooling.

## The TDD Cycle

```
    RED                GREEN              REFACTOR
 Write a test    Write minimal code    Clean up the
 that fails  ──→  to make it pass  ──→  implementation  ──→  (repeat)
      │                  │                    │
      ▼                  ▼                    ▼
   Test FAILS        Test PASSES         Tests still PASS
```

### Step 1: RED — Write a Failing Test

Write the test first. It must fail. A test that passes immediately proves nothing.

```typescript
// RED: This test fails because createTask doesn't exist yet
describe('TaskService', () => {
  it('creates a task with title and default status', async () => {
    const task = await taskService.createTask({ title: 'Buy groceries' });

    expect(task.id).toBeDefined();
    expect(task.title).toBe('Buy groceries');
    expect(task.status).toBe('pending');
    expect(task.createdAt).toBeInstanceOf(Date);
  });
});
```

### Step 2: GREEN — Make It Pass

Write the minimum code to make the test pass. Don't over-engineer:

```typescript
// GREEN: Minimal implementation
export async function createTask(input: { title: string }): Promise<Task> {
  const task = {
    id: generateId(),
    title: input.title,
    status: 'pending' as const,
    createdAt: new Date(),
  };
  await db.tasks.insert(task);
  return task;
}
```

### Step 3: REFACTOR — Clean Up

With tests green, improve the code without changing behavior:

- Extract shared logic
- Improve naming
- Remove duplication
- Optimize if necessary

Run tests after every refactor step to confirm nothing broke.

## The Prove-It Pattern (Bug Fixes)

When a bug is reported, **do not start by trying to fix it.** Start by writing a test that reproduces it.

```

       │
       ▼
  Implement the fix
       │
       ▼
  Test PASSES (proving the fix works)
       │
       ▼
  Run full test suite (no regressions)
```

**Example:**

```typescript
// Bug: "Completing a task doesn't update the completedAt timestamp"

// Step 1: Write the reproduction test (it should FAIL)
it('sets completedAt when task is completed', async () => {
  const task = await taskService.createTask({ title: 'Test' });
  const completed = await taskService.completeTask(task.id);

  expect(completed.status).toBe('completed');
  expect(completed.completedAt).toBeInstanceOf(Date);  // This fails → bug confirmed
});

// Step 2: Fix the bug
export async function completeTask(id: string): Promise<Task> {
  return db.tasks.update(id, {
    status: 'completed',
    completedAt: new Date(),  // This was missing
  });
}

// Step 3: Test passes → bug fixed, regression guarded
```
