Testing Test Writing

When to use this skill

• When deciding which tests to write during feature development
• When writing tests for critical user flows and core functionality
• When creating unit tests that are fast and isolated
• When writing descriptive test names that explain expected outcomes
• When mocking databases, APIs, file systems, and external services
• When testing behavior rather than implementation details
• When deferring edge case and error state testing unless business-critical
• When writing minimal tests during development, adding more at logical completion points
• When ensuring tests execute quickly to encourage frequent running

This Skill provides Claude Code with specific guidance on how to adhere to coding standards as they relate to how it should handle testing test writing.
