Test Generation

Overview

Generate tests systematically by analyzing code paths, covering edge cases, and validating coverage targets.

When to Use

Creating tests for new features
Improving coverage in weak areas
Building regression or integration test suites

Avoid when:

The task is only running existing tests (use dev-workflows)

Quick Reference

Task	Load reference
Test generation workflow	`skills/test-generation/references/generate-tests.md`

Workflow

Identify target scope and test type.
Load the test generation reference.
Analyze code paths and edge cases.
Generate tests and validate coverage.
Summarize results and gaps.

Output

Generated tests
Coverage report and follow-ups

Common Mistakes

Writing tests without understanding code paths
Ignoring edge cases or failure modes
