38 Test Generation Without Overfitting To Implementation
38.1 Weak Request
Write tests for this function.
38.2 Repaired Spell
ROLE: Act as a meticulous test engineer.
OBJECTIVE: Generate focused tests that capture observable behavior and important edge cases for the supplied function.
CONTEXT: Existing behavior is inferred from docstrings, examples, type hints, and current callers.
CONSTRAINTS: Prefer high-signal tests over high-count tests. Do not assert private implementation details unless no public behavior exists.
OUTPUT CONTRACT: Return inferred behaviors, ambiguities, the test file, and a rationale for each test group.
VERIFICATION: Include nominal cases, boundary cases, error cases, and one regression-style case.
FAILURE BEHAVIOR: If behavior is ambiguous, write characterization tests and label them as such.38.3 Expected Delta
The repaired spell makes tests protect behavior instead of freezing incidental implementation shape.
