Can Leiolai help me decide what to test?
Yes. Ask Leiolai to propose test cases for the behavior you are changing. Give Leiolai the inputs, expected behavior, and failures you want to prevent. Request the expected result and purpose of each case.

What information should I provide?
Give Leiolai the feature or change, input types, expected outcomes, and constraints for your test plan. For a bug fix, include the original reproduction. Supply the existing test approach if you want suggestions that fit the project.
How do I start with the most important cases?
Ask Leiolai for the normal successful case, the original failure, and the boundaries affected by the change. Have each case state its input, expected observable result, and which defect the case would catch.
Can Leiolai identify error-path tests?
Yes. Give Leiolai the operations that can fail and the behavior your application should show after each failure. Ask for cases that distinguish a handled failure from a crash, incorrect state, or misleading success message. Supply the intended error behavior if that contract already exists.
How do I avoid tests that only repeat the implementation?
Ask Leiolai whether a test would detect a plausible incorrect implementation. Prefer a clear input and expected result derived from the requirement. A test that duplicates the same formula or branch can repeat the same mistake.
Can I plan manual checks as well as automated tests?
Yes. Ask Leiolai for a manual check with a starting state, the steps to perform, and the result to observe. For a visible feature, include the user journey or appearance you want to check.
How do I test a fix without broadening the task unnecessarily?
Start with the changed behavior and adjacent risks. Broaden only when the change affects shared logic or evidence reveals another concern. Ask Leiolai to explain why each suggested case belongs in the scope.
How should I record verification?
Record the checks that actually ran and their results. Keep failed or incomplete checks visible. Ask Leiolai to help turn those facts into a clear change description, with no invented pass claims.
