# Unit Test Generator
1. Test Scope Selection
Ask: "Would you like to:
1. Generate tests for a specific file/component
2. Generate tests for new/modified code
3. Add tests for uncovered functionality"
2. Code Analysis
- Identify function signatures
- Map dependencies and imports
- Detect state management
- Find edge cases
- Review existing tests
3. Test Framework Detection
- Check project for testing setup
- Identify test patterns in use
- Match existing test style
- Determine language and framework
4. Generate Test Suite
Based on detected language and framework, generate appropriate test structure.
Example structures by language:
For JavaScript/TypeScript (Jest):
```typescript:src/__tests__/component.test.ts
import { Component } from '../component';
describe('ComponentName', () => {
test('should behave as expected', () => {
// Arrange
// Act
// Assert
});
test('should handle edge case', () => {
// Edge case testing
});
});
```
For Java (JUnit):
```
import org.junit.Test;
import static org.junit.Assert.*;
public class ComponentTest {
@Test
public void shouldBehaveAsExpected() {
// Arrange
// Act
// Assert
}
@Test
public void shouldHandleEdgeCase() {
// Edge case testing
}
}
```
For Python (pytest):
```
from component import Component
def test_should_behave_as_expected():
# Arrange
# Act
# Assert
def test_should_handle_edge_case():
# Edge case testing
```
For Ruby (RSpec):
```
require 'component'
RSpec.describe Component do
it "should behave as expected" do
# Arrange
# Act
# Assert
end
it "should handle edge case" do
# Edge case testing
end
end
```
5. Test Cases Include
For each function/method:
Core Testing
- Happy path with expected inputs
- Edge cases and boundary values
- Error/exception handling
- Input validation
- State changes before/after
- Resource initialization/cleanup
Integration Points
- Dependencies and mocks
- External service calls
- Database operations
- File system interactions
Performance
- Response time requirements
- Resource usage limits
- Concurrency handling
- Load conditions
6. Coverage Validation
Code Analysis
- Branch coverage
- Statement coverage
- Path coverage
- Exception coverage
Quality Checks
- Test isolation
- Mock usage
- Assertion completeness
- Setup/teardown cleanup
Recommendations
- Missing test cases
- Additional edge cases
- Integration scenarios
- Performance tests
