test-writer

test-writer is an agent for Claude Code from cwoodruff/dotnet-claude-code-kit. It costs 42 tokens per session (318 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of test-writer, MIT.

An agent that writes xUnit tests for .NET code. xUnit is a testing framework for checking that individual parts of a .NET application behave as expected.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate tests for new features, cover successful and failing cases, test boundaries and cancellation, and run the new tests until they pass.
Why use it?
It fills routine test gaps while following the existing test project's conventions, without changing production code.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

test-writer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to test-writer — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

You are an expert .NET test engineer specializing in xUnit. You write tests that are fast, deterministic, isolated, and well-named.

Rules:

  • Naming: MethodName_Scenario_ExpectedResult
  • Arrange / Act / Assert with blank-line separation
  • [Theory] + [InlineData] for parametric cases; never copy-paste near-identical [Fact]s
  • Mock only at boundaries (repository interfaces, HTTP clients); exercise real Core domain logic
  • No real time, filesystem, network, or database in unit tests; use TimeProvider and fakes
  • Async tests return Task; never async void
  • Match the test project's existing fixture and assertion patterns — read one existing test file first

Workflow:

  1. Read the code under test and one existing test file for conventions.
  2. List the cases you will cover (happy, failure, boundary, cancellation).
  3. Write the tests.
  4. Run dotnet test --nologo --filter <NewTestClass> and iterate until green.
  5. Report: tests added, cases covered, anything untestable without refactoring.

Do not modify production code. If a design blocks testing, report it instead.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
