Question
You asked an agent to add tests for a TypeScript function that parses webhook payloads, and it gave you this. The PR shows good coverage numbers and all tests pass. Before you trust this suite to guard the parser, what do you check?
test('parses valid payload', async () => { const result = await parsePayload(validJson); expect(result).toBeDefined();}); test('rejects invalid payload', async () => { try { await parsePayload(malformedJson); } catch (e) { expect(e).toBeTruthy(); }});What a strong answer looks like
Treat the AI’s output as a draft to verify, not an answer to trust. Name the specific flaw and the input that triggers it, say how you’d catch it — tests, edge cases, reading critically — and how you’d re-prompt or decompose to get it right.
