tdd-helper

This extension helps you focus on Test-Driven-Development by showing you a colored banner in the menubar. The banner indicates where you are in the TDD cycle. You can move from phase to phase using the TDD Helper: Next Phase-Command.

Features

Shows a banner in the menu bar indicating the current phase of a typical TDD cycle:

Outer Cycle:

1. Integration Test

Inner Cycle:

1. Failing Unit Test
2. Implementation
3. Refactor

You can now switch from phase to phase to align to (and remember yourself of) the TDD Cycle. Just use the command TDD Helper: Next Phase to go to the next phase or TDD Helper: New cycle to start a new feature with an integration test.

Extension Settings

You can configure the font colors of all phases:

• tdd-testhelper.integrationTestPhaseColor
• tdd-testhelper.unitTestPhaseColor
• tdd-testhelper.implementPhaseColor
• tdd-testhelper.refactorPhaseColor
