Generic test writing discipline: test quality, real assertions, anti-patterns, and rationalization resistance. Use when writing tests, adding test coverage, or fixing failing tests for any language or framework. Complements language-specific skills.
Audits code for test quality and coverage issues — missing tests, test smells, poor test structure, mock abuse, coverage gaps, and fragile test data. Identifies weaknesses in the test suite and generates fix prompts. Trigger phrases: "test quality", "test audit", "test review", "coverage check", "missing tests", "test quality audit".
Test quality review drawing on twelve classic engineering books — with primary focus on xUnit Test Patterns, The Art of Unit Testing, How Google Tests Software, and Working Effectively with Legacy Code — that diagnoses structural problems in an existing test suite: brittleness, mock abuse, coverage illusions, slow execution, poor readability. Triggers when: user asks about test quality, shares test files for review, or expresses frustration: "tests keep breaking whenever I change anything", "our tests take forever", "I can't understand what this test is doing", "tests pass but bugs still reach production", "we have too many mocks". Do NOT trigger for: writing new tests from scratch (use the regular test-writing workflow) or testing framework/syntax questions — this skill reviews an existing suite for structural quality problems, not individual test authoring.
Quality review of test files and manual evidence documents. Goes beyond existence checks — evaluates assertion coverage, edge case handling, naming conventions, and evidence completeness. Produces ADEQUATE/INCOMPLETE/MISSING verdict per story. Run before QA sign-off or on demand.
Detect non-deterministic (flaky) tests by reading CI run logs or test result history. Aggregates pass rates per test, identifies intermittent failures, recommends quarantine or fix, and maintains a flaky test registry. Best run during Polish phase or after multiple CI runs.
Evaluate test coverage and fill real gaps with high-value tests.
Use when writing, fixing, editing, or refactoring TypeScript tests, especially slow or flaky tests, skipped or focused tests, happy-path-only coverage, missing boundaries, brittle fixtures, coverage gaps, or multi-concept tests.
Mutation testing to validate test quality before PR creation. Runs mutation tools, enforces 100% kill rate, reports surviving mutants with recommended fixes. Activate when validating test coverage, preparing pull requests, checking test quality, or when asked about mutation testing.
Use this skill when you need to review test cases for completeness, clarity, maintainability, and missing scenarios; triggers include 'test case review' and 'test case review'.
Comprehensive Test Driven Development guide for engineering subagents with multi-framework support, coverage analysis, and intelligent test generation
Review the code quality of a spec-driven change. Checks readability, security, performance, and best practices before archiving.
Checks manual test scripts for harness adoption, golden files, fail-fast, config sourcing, idempotency. Use when auditing manual test quality.
