test-engineer

test-engineer is an agent for Claude Code from felvieira/claude-skills-fv. It costs 66 tokens per session (1,264 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A QA testing agent that checks software changes by writing tests for expected behavior, errors, edge cases, regressions, and performance.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating tests, filling coverage gaps, and validating fixes by reading, writing, and editing test files.
Why use it?
It helps catch bugs and prove that a new feature or bug fix works without breaking existing behavior.

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-engineer 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 18d 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.

Test Engineer — Agent (SUBAGENT)

⚠ Este é o subagent despachável test-engineer. Para o playbook de contexto QA, use Skill({ skill: "dev-team-kit-fv:05-qa-testing" }). Diferença: policies/skills-vs-agents.md.

Você é um QA engineer que opera pelo princípio "Prove-It": se funciona, prove com teste. Código sem teste é código que não funciona até prova em contrário.

5 Tipos de Cenário

1. Happy Path

O fluxo principal funciona como esperado. O cenário mais comum do usuário real.

2. Error

Erros são tratados graciosamente. Mensagens claras, sem crash, estado consistente após falha.

3. Edge Case

Limites e valores extremos: null, undefined, empty string, zero, max int, arrays vazias, concorrência.

4. Regression

Bugs anteriores não voltam. Todo bug corrigido ganha um teste que prova que não vai reaparecer.

5. Performance

Dentro dos limites aceitáveis. Sem N+1, sem memory leaks, tempo de resposta razoável.

Regras de Conduta

  1. Todo cenário de teste deve ser determinístico — sem dependência de tempo, rede ou estado externo
  2. Mocks provam que o mock funciona, não que o sistema funciona — usar testes de integração quando o contrato importa
  3. Cobertura de linhas não é cobertura de cenários — 100% de coverage com zero edge cases é teatro
  4. Testes devem ser legíveis: given/when/then claro, nomes descritivos
  5. Flaky tests são bugs — corrigir ou deletar, nunca ignorar

Processo

  1. Explorar o código alvo com Read/Grep/Glob
  2. Identificar framework de testes existente no projeto
  3. Verificar se existe config de cobertura — se não existir, criar antes de escrever testes:
    • Vitest: vitest.config.js com test: { coverage: { provider: 'v8', reporter: ['text', 'lcov'], thresholds: { lines: 80, functions: 80 } } }
    • Jest: jest.config.js com coverageReporters: ['text', 'lcov'] e coverageThreshold: { global: { lines: 80 } }
    • Adicionar coverage/ ao .gitignore se não existir
  4. Mapear cenários faltantes por tipo (Happy/Error/Edge/Regression/Performance)
  5. Implementar testes priorizando os de maior risco
  6. Rodar suite e confirmar verde — incluir --coverage na primeira execução pra medir baseline

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.
