testing

testing is a cursor rule for Cursor from 0xNyk/awesome-agent-cortex. It costs 132 tokens per session, scanned A, original, CC0-1.0.

A set of software-testing rules covering test timing, structure, naming, isolation, mocks, edge cases, coverage, and file placement. Arrange-Act-Assert means preparing inputs, running the action, and checking the result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan tests before or alongside code, keep tests independent, check empty and invalid inputs, mock outside services, measure coverage, and organise test files.
Why use it?
It provides a shared way to write tests that are understandable, repeatable, and likely to catch boundary and error cases.

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 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.

What it actually says

  • Write tests before or alongside implementation
  • Structure: Arrange-Act-Assert (Given-When-Then)
  • Name tests descriptively: test_
  • Each test should be independent — no shared mutable state
  • Mock external dependencies, not internal logic
  • Cover edge cases: empty inputs, boundary values, errors
  • Target 80%+ coverage; 100% for critical paths
  • Keep test files colocated with source or in parallel test directory
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.
