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
