tdd-orchestrator
Helps your agent coordinate test-driven development workflows. It ensures refactoring discipline and comprehensive testing.
What it does
This tool helps organize and execute the Test-Driven Development (TDD) process. It ensures you follow best practices like the 'red-green-refactor' cycle and coordinates different parts of the process to build high-quality software.
When to use it
- ✓When starting a new software project and wanting to use TDD from the beginning.
- ✓When you need to improve the quality and reliability of existing code.
- ✓To coordinate the work of multiple people or tools in test development.

FAQ
What is TDD?
TDD stands for Test-Driven Development. It's an approach where you write tests before writing the code they are supposed to test.
What does 'red-green-refactor' mean?
It's the core TDD cycle: 1. Write a test that fails (red). 2. Write the minimum code to make the test pass (green). 3. Improve the written code and tests, if needed (refactor).
What is 'multi-agent coordination' for?
It means the tool can help organize and synchronize the work of different 'agents' (which could be other testing tools or even other AIs) so they work together efficiently in test development.
