This step shows experienced developers how to use AI to strengthen Test-Driven Development rather than replace it.
AI is used to suggest test scenarios, edge cases, and potential gaps, but the developer remains responsible for writing the tests and guiding the design.
The workflow is simple:
-
Choose a small function.
-
Ask AI to generate possible test cases.
-
Write the tests yourself using TDD.
-
Compare your tests with AI suggestions to identify missing cases.
-
Implement and refactor safely using the test suite.
The key principle is that AI assists discovery and coverage, while developers retain control of intent, design quality, and implementation decisions.
