Phase 2: TDD Implementation Roadmap

Status: ✅ COMPLETE
Start: 2026-05-29
End: 2026-05-30
Result: All 63 tests passing ✅

TDD Workflow (Golden Rules)

1. RED: Write failing test (shows missing implementation)
2. GREEN: Write minimum code to make it pass
3. REFACTOR: Clean up while test stays green
4. REPEAT: Next test, next feature

Implementation Order (Bottom-Up)

Layer 1: Models (Core Data)

• itsulu.blog.topic — topic queue management

  • test_topic_is_created_with_pending_state

  • test_gemini_provider_generates_blog_content
  • test_ollama_provider_generates_blog_content_using_local_model

Daily TDD Rhythm

Morning (RED):
  - Pick next failing test
  - Read test specification
  - Understand what model/method is missing

Midday (GREEN):
  - Write minimum code to pass the test
  - Run test locally (K8s job): pytest addons/itsulu_blog_publisher/tests -k <test_name> -v
  - If fails, iterate

Afternoon (REFACTOR):
  - Clean up code style
  - Run full test suite: pytest addons/itsulu_blog_publisher/tests/ -v
  - Pre-commit: black, isort, pylint-odoo
  - Commit with message: "feat: implement <feature> (test: <test_name>)"

Success Criteria

✅ Phase 2 Complete:

• ✅ All 63 tests passing (48 TDD + 15 BDD)
