Description

A standalone Bash script for Behavior-Driven Development with Ralph Wiggum Loop. In principle, while running unattended, the script can keep code and requirements in sync, but in practice it still requires interactive human supervision, so it supports both modes. The script is standalone and can be modified and committed into your project.

Validate Claims

You are building a small, greenfield project, and collected free-form requirements, such as https://github.com/marcindulak/ralph-wiggum-bdd/blob/main/examples/python/example1/REQUIREMENTS.md

Based on the requirements, the script will follow the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior-driven_development approach. It will create features (which are like user stories), generate the corresponding tests and implement code.

Specific Task(s)

Try this example https://github.com/marcindulak/ralph-wiggum-bdd?tab=readme-ov-file#example-project

Specific Prompt(s)

You don't need to use any prompt. The prompt is built-in into the script.

Additional Comments

I'm sorry about adding it, it's more work for you, but I think the standalone nature of the script and relying in BDD makes it interesting.

No no, this is not my job. These are helpful recommendations that I make no promises to review. I appreciate the recommendation (although I am a little tired of Ralph to be honest).
