testing

A testing command hub for running tests, examining code coverage, generating tests, following test-driven development, and benchmarking performance. Test-driven development means writing tests before the code they check.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run and understand failing tests, prioritize coverage gaps, create batches of tests, get TDD guidance, or measure performance.
Why use it?
It helps explain test failures, reveal risky untested areas, and check whether performance changes cause regressions.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude 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

testing 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 324 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Testing

Aliases: /test-hub, /tests

Testing operations powered by Socratic agents that help you understand failures and design better tests.

Quick Examples

/testing                    # Interactive menu
/testing run                # Run tests with guided failure analysis
/testing coverage           # Coverage analysis with risk prioritization
/testing generate           # Batch generate tests to boost coverage
/testing tdd                # Test-driven development guidance
/testing benchmark          # Performance benchmarking

Discovery

Question:
  header: "Task"
  question: "What testing task do you need?"
  options:
    - label: "Run tests"
      description: "Execute tests with guided failure analysis"
    - label: "Coverage analysis"
      description: "Find gaps prioritized by risk"
    - label: "TDD workflow"
      description: "Test-driven development guidance"
    - label: "Benchmarks"
      description: "Performance testing and regression detection"

Run Tests

Agent: test-writer | Workflow: test_runner

Execute tests with Socratic failure analysis that helps you understand why tests fail.

Invoke:

/testing run                    # Run full test suite
/testing run tests/unit/        # Run specific directory
/testing run -k "auth"          # Run tests matching pattern
/testing run --failed           # Re-run failed tests only

The test-writer agent will:

  1. Run pytest with your chosen options
  2. For failures, guide you through understanding why it failed
  3. Ask: "Where does this value come from? What would cause it to be None?"
  4. Help you distinguish test bugs from code bugs
  5. Suggest whether to fix the test or the code

Philosophy: Instead of just showing "AssertionError: None != User", you'll hear "The test expects a User but got None. Let's trace: where does the User come from in this test?"

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.

testing is a command published in the GitHub repository Smart-AI-Memory/empathy-framework (13 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 15 tokens to every session and 2,215 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
