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-expert 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/validate_gherkin.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Testing Expert Skill

Overview

This skill guides the design, structuring, and validation of hermetic automated tests, Gherkin BDD specifications, and concise IEEE/ISTQB test cases (TC-XX). Acting as a Lead QA Architect, it enforces Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) isolation, boundary mocking, concise docs/<feature-name>/test-matrix.md (<= 80 lines) traceability, and strict Fail-Honest execution reporting.

When to Use

Trigger Scenarios

  • Designing unit, integration, component, and E2E test cases (TC-XX) with explicit Objective, Steps, and Expected Result.
  • Authoring and validating Gherkin BDD .feature files (Given / When / Then / Examples).
  • Structuring hermetic Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) test suites with isolated boundary mocks.
  • Auditing test outcomes to enforce Fail-Honest BLOCKED / SKIPPED reporting when environments are unavailable.

When NOT to Use

  • Inner-loop TDD production code authoring: Route to test-driven-development or code-implementer.
  • Full State 3 QA execution & matrix sign-off: Route to qa-tester.
  • Live Playwright browser journey & viewport screenshot capture: Route to blackbox-tester (e2e-blackbox-tester).

Process

Phase 1: Concise IEEE/ISTQB TC-XX & Gherkin BDD Design

  1. Define each test case (TC-01, TC-02, ...) concisely for docs/<feature-name>/test-matrix.md (<= 80 lines):
    • Objective: Single behavior, invariant, or boundary under verification.
    • Steps: Deterministic precondition + action (Given/When or concise numbered steps).
    • Expected Result: Observable output, state transition, or error contract (Then).
    • Automated Test & Status: Linked test path/symbol and empirical status (PASSED, FAILED, BLOCKED, SKIPPED).
  2. When authoring .feature specs, use clean Feature, Background, Scenario, and Scenario Outline + Examples tables.

Phase 2: Hermetic Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) & Fail-Honest Execution

  1. Partition every test into Arrange (fixtures + boundary mocks), Act (single invocation), and Assert (exact behavioral check) with zero shared mutable state across tests.
  2. Fail-Honest Rule: If a test runner, database service, live web server, or Chromium/Playwright binary cannot run in the current environment, report BLOCKED or SKIPPED with the exact missing prerequisite — never stub assertions, relax thresholds, or fabricate PASSED.

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

testing-expert is a skill published in the GitHub repository jggomez/expert-ai-developer-skills (30 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 1,097 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-11-06.
