# Tutorial 1: Hello World!

Let’s walk through your first **HelloWorld** component built with **TestDrive-UI**.

This will demonstrate the full workflow:
👉 requirement → test → implementation → run → refinement.

---

## 🧱 1. Project setup

If you haven’t already:

```bash
unzip testdrive-ui.zip
cd testdrive-ui
npm install
```

Now you’re ready to create your first component.

---

## 🧩 2. Create a component folder

```bash
mkdir src/components/hello-world
```

Inside it, you’ll have:

```
hello-world/
├── hello-world.js
├── hello-world.test.js
└── hello-world.stories.js
```

---

## ✏️ 3. Step 1 — Write the requirement

> “When `<hello-world>` is rendered, it should display the text **Hello World!**
> and clicking the element should show an alert.”

That’s your behavioral spec — the *“why”* that drives the test.

---

## 🧪 4. Step 2 — Write the test first

`src/components/hello-world/hello-world.test.js`

```javascript
import "./hello-world.js";

describe("<hello-world>", () => {
  it("renders the correct greeting", () => {
    const el = document.createElement("hello-world");
    document.body.appendChild(el);

    const content = el.shadowRoot.textContent;
    expect(content).to.include("Hello World!");
  });

  it("triggers an alert on click", () => {
    const el = document.createElement("hello-world");
    document.body.appendChild(el);

    let alerted = false;
    window.alert = () => (alerted = true);

    const div = el.shadowRoot.querySelector("div");
    div.click();

    expect(alerted).to.be.true;
  });
});
```

Run this test now:

```bash
npm test
```

Both tests will **fail** initially — perfect, that’s the TDD start.

---

## 💡 5. Step 3 — Implement the component

`src/components/hello-world/hello-world.js`

```javascript
import { LitElement, html, css } from "lit";

export class HelloWorld extends LitElement {
  static styles = css`
    div {
      font-family: system-ui, sans-serif;
      font-size: 1.5rem;
      color: #007acc;
      padding: 1rem;
      text-align: center;
      cursor: pointer;
      user-select: none;
    }
    div:hover {
      color: #005fa3;
    }
  `;

  render() {
    return html`<div @click=${this._onClick}>Hello World!</div>`;
  }

  _onClick() {
    alert("Hello from TestDrive-UI!");
  }
}

customElements.define("hello-world", HelloWorld);
```

Run the tests again:

```bash
npm test
```

✅ Both should now pass.

---

## ⚡ 6. Step 4 — Preview it in the browser

Add it to your `index.html`:

```html
<script type="module" src="./components/hello-world/hello-world.js"></script>
<hello-world></hello-world>
```

Then run:

```bash
npm run dev
```

Open [http://localhost:5173](http://localhost:5173)
→ You’ll see your clickable **Hello World!** component rendered live.

---

## 🧭 7. Step 5 — Visual story (optional)

`src/components/hello-world/hello-world.stories.js`

```javascript
import "./hello-world.js";

export default {
  title: "UI/Hello World",
};

export const Default = () => `<hello-world></hello-world>`;
```

Once you add Storybook to the scaffold later, this file will automatically generate a visual preview card.

---

## ✅ 8. What you achieved

* Created an **independent UI component** with Lit
* Wrote deterministic **tests with jsdom + Mocha**
* Verified behavior automatically
* Previewed visually via **Vite**

This loop is your core **TestDrive-UI workflow**:

```
spec → test → implement → run → refine
```
