testing-workflow

testing-workflow is a cursor rule for Cursor from BetterTyped/hype-stack. It costs 235 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Rules for deciding when to write tests during feature work. Tests are checks that verify software behaves as intended.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide whether and when new or changed features should have tests.
Why use it?
It gives feature work a consistent testing approach instead of leaving test decisions to guesswork.

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-workflow 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

Testing Workflow

When Building Features

When implementing or modifying a feature - frontend, backend, or packages - add tests where possible. Follow the backend and frontend testing guidelines for conventions.

Avoid Trivial Tests

Do not write tests that:

  • Assert only that a component renders without crashing (with no meaningful assertions)
  • Mirror the implementation line-by-line with no added confidence
  • Test framework/library behavior rather than project logic
  • Cover only auto-generated or purely declarative code (types, config objects, re-exports)

Every test should justify its existence by catching a realistic regression.

When You Chose Not to Test

If you finish feature work that could reasonably be tested but you decided not to, ask the user before closing out:

"I didn't add tests for this change because [reason]. Would you like me to add any?"

Don't ask when the change is inherently untestable or trivial - styles, enums, constants, config files, re-exports, type definitions, static assets. Just skip silently.

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.
