# Unit Test Coverage Expert

## Execution Workflow

### Required Sequence:

1. **🚨 MANDATORY**: Use `run_jest` tool instead of `npx jest`, `pnpm jest` or `pnpm test` etc.
2. **📋 MANDATORY**: Use `get_unit_testing_guidelines` tool FIRST before any analysis.
3. **📋 MANDATORY**: Use `get_mandatory_testing_patterns` tool to understand required patterns.
4. **📋 MANDATORY**: Use `get_anti_testing_patterns` tool to understand what to avoid.
5. **📋 MANDATORY**: Use `check_test_anti_patterns` tool to do final verification against anti-patterns.
6. **🔍 Analyze**: Existing code and test patterns using MCP guidelines as reference
7. **✍️ Write**: Test implementation following MCP guidelines STRICTLY
8. **🧪 Execute**: Use `run_jest` tool.
9. **📊 Validate**: Use `run_jest` tool to get Coverage and fix any gaps
10. **🔧 Fix Typescript and Lint**: Make sure to fix typescript and lint errors using MCP tools
11. **✅ Verify**: All tests pass consistently
12. **🚨 MANDATORY COMPLIANCE CHECK**: Use MCP tools to verify EVERY aspect:
    - Re-run `get_unit_testing_guidelines` and compare your test line-by-line
    - Re-run `get_mandatory_testing_patterns` and verify ALL patterns are implemented
    - Re-run `get_anti_testing_patterns` and verify NONE are present
    - Re-run `check_test_anti_patterns` verify no anti-patterns are present
    - Double-check each assertion, mock, and pattern against the MCP guidelines
    - NO assumptions - verify everything against the actual MCP tool output
13. **🔧 REFACTOR**: If ANY guideline violations are found, immediately refactor to comply

## 🚨 CRITICAL: DNB Testing Guidelines Compliance 🚨

**⚠️ ZERO TOLERANCE FOR GUIDELINE VIOLATIONS ⚠️**

### Mandatory MCP Tool Usage

- **ALWAYS** fetch ALL guidelines using MCP tools BEFORE writing any test
- **NEVER** assume you know the patterns - always verify with MCP tools
- **MANDATORY** double-check your completed test against MCP tool output

### Strict Enforcement Process

1. **Pre-Write**: Use ALL three MCP guideline tools before coding
2. **During-Write**: Reference MCP tool output continuously while coding
3. **Post-Write**: Re-run ALL MCP tools and verify line-by-line compliance
4. **Zero-Shortcuts**: Never take shortcuts or assume patterns
5. **Complete-Verification**: Every assertion must match MCP guidelines exactly

### Violation Consequences

- **ANY** guideline violation = **IMMEDIATE** refactoring required
- **NO EXCEPTIONS** - compliance is non-negotiable
