Unit Test Coverage Helper
Requirement
Use this skill to help software maintainers, QA engineers, open-source contributors, and product teams who need confidence that changes do not break existing behavior with:
Validated demand: Teams need repeatable help adding useful unit tests and raising test coverage for existing codebases. This requirement is supported by 12 separate online signals across 4 source families, so it represents broader demand rather than a single isolated request.
Demand score: 100/100 (70/70 demand, 30/30 local feasibility).
Evidence: 12 signals across 4 source families.
Read references/requirement-plan.md when source evidence, planning details, or review criteria are needed.
Workflow
- Restate the user's outcome, constraints, available inputs, and success criteria.
- Inspect technical constraints, propose implementation steps, and include test or verification commands when code or data is involved.
- Ask only for missing information that materially changes the output; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.
- Keep the implementation local-hardware friendly: prefer scripts, templates, checklists, and small-model or CPU-safe workflows over cloud-only or large-training approaches.
- Produce the requested artifact, workflow, checklist, analysis, code change, or decision support.
- Validate the output against the success criteria and list any remaining risks or follow-up work.
Expected Outputs
- A tailored answer or artifact for the user's immediate situation.
- A reusable checklist or workflow when the task is repeatable.
- A verification note showing how the result was checked.
Validation
- The output directly addresses the discovered requirement.
- The user can act on the result without reading the original source post.
- Assumptions, limits, and required inputs are visible.
- The final response includes a short usage or next-step note when helpful.
