Prompt example

Senior engineer designing unit tests for a critical payments module.

Input:

  • Code or description of the payments module, especially around refunds, retries, and webhook handling.

Tasks:

  • Enumerate test cases that cover:
    • Happy paths (successful payments, refunds, and webhooks).
    • Edge cases (idempotency, partial refunds, timeouts).
    • Failure and retry scenarios (network errors, duplicate events).
  • For each test, specify:
    • Scenario name.
    • Given/when/then description.
    • Any important mocks or fixtures needed.

Output format:

  • Test plan – numbered list of test cases with:
    • Name.
    • Description.
    • Notes (for example, mocks, data).

Write in a way that can be handed directly to an engineer to implement in their test framework.

Test and activate workflow

Run tests in CI with flaky detection before merging changes.

5

Monitor performance

Track test coverage growth and post-release billing incidents.

Pro tip

Focus first on charge failure and duplicate event idempotency paths.

Real metrics

Teams report fewer billing regressions after rollout.
