e2e-testing-patterns

e2e-testing-patterns is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from is-bo/fullstack-forge-skill. It costs 51 tokens per session (941 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of e2e-testing-patterns, Apache-2.0.

A guide to end-to-end tests that imitate real user journeys in a browser, using tools such as Playwright and Cypress. These tests check that the whole application works across its connected parts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test login, checkout, signup, multi-step forms, browser compatibility, accessibility, responsive layouts, and real API interactions.
Why use it?
It helps catch failures in important flows before users encounter them and provides patterns for dealing with unreliable tests. It also clarifies which checks belong in faster unit tests instead.

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

e2e-testing-patterns 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.

Origin

E2E Testing Patterns

Build reliable, fast, and maintainable end-to-end test suites that provide confidence to ship code quickly and catch regressions before users do.

When to Use This Skill

  • Implementing end-to-end test automation
  • Debugging flaky or unreliable tests
  • Testing critical user workflows
  • Setting up CI/CD test pipelines
  • Testing across multiple browsers
  • Validating accessibility requirements
  • Testing responsive designs
  • Establishing E2E testing standards

Core Concepts

1. E2E Testing Fundamentals

What to Test with E2E:

  • Critical user journeys (login, checkout, signup)
  • Complex interactions (drag-and-drop, multi-step forms)
  • Cross-browser compatibility
  • Real API integration
  • Authentication flows

What NOT to Test with E2E:

  • Unit-level logic (use unit tests)
  • API contracts (use integration tests)
  • Edge cases (too slow)
  • Internal implementation details

2. Test Philosophy

The Testing Pyramid:

        /\
       /E2E\         ← Few, focused on critical paths
      /─────\
     /Integr\        ← More, test component interactions
    /────────\
   /Unit Tests\      ← Many, fast, isolated
  /────────────\

Best Practices:

  • Test user behavior, not implementation
  • Keep tests independent
  • Make tests deterministic
  • Optimize for speed
  • Use data-testid, not CSS selectors

Detailed patterns and worked examples

Detailed pattern documentation lives in references/details.md. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient.

Best Practices

  1. Use Data Attributes: data-testid or data-cy for stable selectors
  2. Avoid Brittle Selectors: Don't rely on CSS classes or DOM structure
  3. Test User Behavior: Click, type, see - not implementation details
  4. Keep Tests Independent: Each test should run in isolation
  5. Clean Up Test Data: Create and destroy test data in each test
  6. Use Page Objects: Encapsulate page logic
  7. Meaningful Assertions: Check actual user-visible behavior
  8. Optimize for Speed: Mock when possible, parallel execution

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.
