# Test Tools -- Technical Specification

**Version**: v1.0.0 | **Status**: Placeholder | **Last Updated**: March 2026

## Overview

Reserved submodule for test generation and execution utilities within the `coding` package. Currently contains only a package `__init__.py` with an empty `__all__` export list and no implementation classes.

## Architecture

This module is a structural placeholder. Test generation functionality in Codomyrmex is currently provided by `coding/test_generator.py` at the parent package level, and the broader `testing/` top-level module provides test fixtures, fuzzing, property testing, chaos scenarios, and workflow runners.

## Current State

No implementation classes or functions exist in this submodule. The `__init__.py` exports an empty `__all__` list.

## Planned Capabilities

- Automated test case generation from function signatures
- Test template scaffolding for new modules
- Test coverage gap analysis and targeted test generation
- Mutation testing support

## Dependencies

- **Internal**: Expected to depend on `coding.test_generator`, `testing`, `logging_monitoring`
- **External**: Expected to depend on `ast` (stdlib), `pytest` (dev)

## Constraints

- No implementation exists; importing this module provides no functionality.
- Test generation logic currently lives in `coding/test_generator.py` at the parent level.
- Any future implementation must follow the zero-mock policy: real test generation only, `NotImplementedError` for unimplemented paths.

## Error Handling

- Not applicable until implementation is added.
