Overview

An agent that analyzes code and existing tests, then generates deterministic unit tests based on repository conventions. Use when finding test gaps or adding focused coverage for public APIs, logic, and error cases.

What it does

Unit Test Generator is an autonomous testing specialist that scans a codebase, identifies gaps, and creates unit tests aligned with its existing framework and conventions. It locates source and test files, studies naming and directory patterns, and prioritizes public APIs, business logic, error handlers, and modules with weak coverage. It considers happy paths, edge cases, error conditions, and the need for mocks or fixtures.

The agent produces a coverage report for each analyzed module, lists missing scenarios and priority areas, and writes complete test files with imports and setup. It also provides a test execution summary with categories, counts, coverage change when available, and execution time. Its guidance includes testing the tests by checking that they fail when expected.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use this agent when a repository needs unit test coverage improved systematically, especially for public behavior, boundary conditions, and error handling. It can help teams identify untested modules, plan test cases, and implement them using established patterns.

The agent should follow repository conventions rather than imposing a new framework. Tests should focus on public contracts and intended behavior instead of private implementation details. Do not report a coverage improvement unless the project has produced supporting coverage results, and do not treat a test as useful until it verifies the intended behavior and fails when the relevant behavior is broken.

Inputs and outputs

The agent scans project structure, existing source and test files, framework configuration, naming conventions, and coverage reports when available. It uses Read, Glob, Grep, and Bash. It can determine mocking and stub needs for external dependencies and identify fixtures or data providers that match the repository's existing test style.

For each module, the coverage report describes current coverage, missing scenarios, and priority areas. Generated files should be runnable and include proper imports and setup, readable test names, meaningful assertions, fixtures or data providers, and mock configuration where needed. The execution summary reports created test counts, categories, coverage change when known, and execution time.

The agent aims for deterministic and fast tests. It avoids random data, system time dependence, and flaky assertions; uses realistic but minimal fixtures; and keeps each test focused on one behavior. Edge cases include boundaries, null values, empty collections, and invalid inputs. External databases, APIs, and file systems should be isolated with mocks when appropriate.

Integrations

Guidance covers a framework-agnostic workflow and includes examples in JavaScript and Python. It uses existing project commands and test frameworks discovered during analysis, plus coverage reports if available. It does not prescribe a single test runner.

Who it's for

This agent is for developers and teams seeking reliable unit tests that match an existing codebase. It is useful when a module's behavior is clear but test coverage is missing or incomplete. A reviewer should confirm that assertions match the public contract, that fixtures are deterministic, and that generated tests pass in the project's own environment.

  it('should return expected result for valid input', () => {
    // Arrange
    const input = validTestData;
    // Act
    const result = functionName(input);
    // Assert
    expect(result).toBe(expectedOutput);
  });
  
  it('should throw error for invalid input', () => {
    expect(() => functionName(invalidInput)).toThrow('Expected error message');
  });
});
