Practice Test-Driven Development

Developers often skip tests or write them after implementation. This skill guides Claude, Codex, and Claude Code through red-green-refactor discipline.

Install with my Agent

Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.

Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "tdd-workflow" from https://skillstore.io/skills/sickn33-tdd-workflow.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/sickn33-tdd-workflow/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.

Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Agent-readable resources

Test it

Using "tdd-workflow". Add email validation to a signup form.

Expected outcome:

The assistant proposes failing tests for valid addresses, malformed addresses, and empty input. It then suggests minimal implementation and refactoring checks.

Using "tdd-workflow". Fix a bug where discounts apply twice.

Expected outcome:

The assistant starts with a regression test that captures the duplicate discount. It then limits implementation to the smallest passing change.

Using "tdd-workflow". Refactor a complex pricing function.

Expected outcome:

The assistant verifies tests are green, identifies duplication and naming issues, and recommends small refactoring steps without changing behavior.

What You Can Build

Start a New Feature

Guide the first failing test, minimal implementation, and cleanup steps for a new behavior.

Fix a Regression

Write a failing test that reproduces a bug before changing production code.

Coordinate AI Coding Agents

Assign separate agents to test writing, implementation, and refactoring while preserving TDD order.

Try These Prompts

Begin a TDD Task 
Use the tdd-workflow skill. Help me define one failing test for this requirement before any implementation work.
Plan Test Coverage 
Use the tdd-workflow skill. List the happy path, error case, and edge case tests for this feature in priority order.
Run Red Green Refactor 
Use the tdd-workflow skill. Walk me through RED, GREEN, and REFACTOR steps for this change, and stop after each phase.
Manage Multi-Agent TDD 
Use the tdd-workflow skill. Split this work across a test-writing agent, an implementation agent, and a refactoring agent.

Best Practices

  • Write the failing test before changing production code.
  • Keep each test focused on one observable behavior.
  • Refactor only after the full test suite passes.

Avoid

  • Writing implementation first and adding tests later.
  • Testing private implementation details instead of behavior.
  • Expanding scope during the GREEN phase.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this skill help with?
It helps an AI assistant follow test-driven development using RED, GREEN, and REFACTOR steps.
Does it run tests automatically?
No. It provides workflow guidance. The user or agent must run the project test command.
Can it work with any programming language?
Yes, the workflow is language independent when the user provides project context and test framework details.
Is it useful for bug fixes?
Yes. It encourages writing a failing regression test before changing the code.
Does it replace test design judgment?
No. It structures the process, but users still need clear requirements and meaningful assertions.
Can Claude Code or Codex use it?
Yes. The marketplace metadata lists Claude, Codex, and Claude Code as supported tools.
