## TDD Workflow for Go

### The RED-GREEN-REFACTOR Cycle

```
RED     → Write a failing test first
GREEN   → Write minimal code to pass the test
REFACTOR → Improve code while keeping tests green
REPEAT  → Continue with next requirement
```

### Step-by-Step TDD in Go

```go
// Step 1: Define the interface/signature
// calculator.go
package calculator

func Add(a, b int) int {
    panic("not implemented") // Placeholder
}

// Step 2: Write failing test (RED)
// calculator_test.go
package calculator

import "testing"

func TestAdd(t *testing.T) {
    got := Add(2, 3)
    want := 5
    if got != want {
        t.Errorf("Add(2, 3) = %d; want %d", got, want)
    }
}

// Step 3: Run test - verify FAIL
// $ go test
// --- FAIL: TestAdd (0.00s)
// panic: not implemented

// Step 4: Implement minimal code (GREEN)
func Add(a, b int) int {
    return a + b
}

// Step 5: Run test - verify PASS
// $ go test
// PASS

// Step 6: Refactor if needed, verify tests still pass
