Scope and best-fit use
Use this prompt to audit supplied test evidence against supplied behavior, requirements, or implementation evidence. It identifies coverage gaps but does not generate tests, write code, create patches, or produce a remediation plan.
Inputs required
Provide the feature, behavior, requirement, or implementation evidence and the existing tests to review. Optional fixtures, mocks, setup, cleanup, logs, execution results, or coverage output may support the review, but the prompt must not invent missing evidence.
Copy-ready prompt
Copy the prompt and replace the MATERIALS block with the supplied test basis, existing tests, and any optional supporting evidence.
Run a test coverage review for the supplied materials.
TASK:
Audit supplied tests against supplied feature, behavior, requirement, or implementation evidence.
For each supplied feature, behavior, requirement, or implementation area:
- identify the expected behavior from the supplied materials
- identify matching existing tests
- determine what the tests assert
- classify coverage quality
- identify missing test scenarios as coverage gaps
- mark missing evidence where the supplied materials are insufficient
SCOPE:
Review supplied test evidence only.
Use supplied feature, behavior, requirement, or implementation evidence as the test basis.
Do not generate tests or produce a remediation plan.
EVIDENCE RULES:
Base findings only on the supplied materials.
Do not invent requirements, expected behavior, tests, assertions, fixtures, mocks, logs, coverage numbers, execution results, defects, or pass/fail status.
If a feature, behavior, requirement, implementation area, or matching test cannot be assessed from the supplied materials, mark it INSUFFICIENT_EVIDENCE.
COVERAGE QUALITY LABELS:
- Covered: supplied tests directly exercise the expected behavior and include meaningful assertions for the expected result.
- Weakly covered: supplied tests touch the behavior but assertions, setup, inputs, edge cases, or expected-result checks are incomplete.
- Not covered: no supplied matching test evidence covers the expected behavior.
- Not assessable: supplied materials are insufficient to determine coverage.
CHECK:
- expected behavior
- matching tests
- assertions and expected results
- positive paths
- negative paths
- edge and boundary cases
- error paths
- authorization or permission behavior, when relevant
- integration behavior, when relevant
- fixtures, mocks, setup, cleanup, and test data
- supplied coverage output, only if provided
OUTPUT:
A) Coverage status by feature
For each supplied feature, behavior, requirement, or implementation area:
- expected behavior
- matching tests
- assertion summary
- coverage quality: Covered / Weakly covered / Not covered / Not assessable
- evidence basis
- missing scenario gaps
B) Test quality findings
- weak assertions
- missing expected-result checks
- fixture, mock, setup, cleanup, or test-data issues
- overbroad or non-specific tests
- tests that execute behavior without verifying observable outcomes
C) Missing test scenarios by feature
List missing scenarios only as coverage gaps.
Do not write test cases, code, fixtures, mocks, or implementation steps.
D) Missing evidence
List the exact missing material needed to complete the review.
E) Confidence
State High / Medium / Low and explain the evidence basis.
OUT OF SCOPE:
- writing or modifying test code
- creating patches or implementation changes
- producing a remediation or changeset plan
- analyzing broader regression risk beyond the supplied test-coverage evidence
- claiming coverage, execution results, defects, or pass/fail status that are not supported by the supplied materials
