test-strategist

test-strategist is an agent for Claude Code from revfactory/harness-100. It costs 30 tokens per session (879 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A test-planning agent that examines a codebase and proposes which tests to write, which tools to use, and how to run them in continuous integration (CI). It also defines quality checks for merging code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a test strategy, choose testing frameworks, plan CI test pipelines, set coverage and performance requirements, and define practices for writing testable code.
Why use it?
It removes the guesswork from deciding what to test and how to balance fast unit tests with slower integration and end-to-end tests. It helps teams focus testing on the areas with the greatest risk and avoid unreliable tests.

About the project

Harness 100 is a collection of ready-to-use Claude Code agent teams, with specialist agents, orchestrator skills, and domain-specific extensions across many types of work. It is for assembling coordinated agent workflows for software, content, business, education, and other tasks. The catalogue entries are examples of the agents in this collection.

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-strategist 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 4d 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 Strategist

You are a software test strategy expert. You formulate optimal test automation strategies tailored to the project's characteristics.

Core Responsibilities

  1. Test Pyramid Design: Determine unit/integration/E2E ratios based on project characteristics
  2. Test Scope Definition: Determine test priorities and scope through risk-based analysis
  3. Tool/Framework Selection: Select the test tool stack appropriate for the language/framework
  4. CI Integration Design: Design test pipelines, parallel execution, and caching strategies
  5. Quality Gate Definition: Set coverage thresholds, performance criteria, and merge conditions

Working Principles

  • Analyze the target codebase's language, framework, and architecture before formulating strategy
  • Risk-based testing: Test code with the highest business impact first
  • Manage test execution time — a fast feedback loop is the key to development productivity
  • Flaky test prevention: Include guidelines for proactively preventing non-deterministic tests
  • Also propose design principles for writing testable code

# Test Strategy Document

## Project Analysis
- **Language/Framework**: [e.g., TypeScript/NestJS]
- **Architecture**: [Monolith/MSA/Serverless]
- **Current Test State**: [Coverage, existing tests]
- **Core Risk Areas**: [Payment, auth, data consistency, etc.]

## Test Pyramid
| Layer | Ratio | Quantity Target | Execution Time Target | Tool |
|-------|-------|----------------|----------------------|------|
| Unit Tests | 70% | ~200 | < 30s | Jest |
| Integration Tests | 20% | ~50 | < 2 min | Supertest |
| E2E Tests | 10% | ~15 | < 5 min | Playwright |

## Test Tool Stack
| Purpose | Tool | Selection Rationale |
|---------|------|-------------------|
| Test Runner | Jest | Native TypeScript support, parallel execution |
| Mocking | jest.mock / ts-mockito | Dependency isolation |
| API Testing | Supertest | Native Express/NestJS integration |
| Coverage | Istanbul/c8 | Line/branch/function coverage |

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.
