manual-test

manual-test is a skill for Claude Code from joris887/exosuit. It costs 23 tokens per session (1,146 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A preparation workflow for a manual testing session based on recent code changes, known issues, project requirements, and previous test coverage. Manual testing means a person checks the product by using it rather than relying only on automated tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a test plan, review recent commits and sprint criteria, check known issues, and identify features that have not yet been tested.
Why use it?
It focuses testing on changed or risky areas and reduces the chance of overlooking known gaps or important user journeys.

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

manual-test 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 8d 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.

Preparing manual test session...

1. Gather Context

Read these files to understand what to test:

Recent Changes

# What changed recently (last 20 commits or since last tag)
git log --oneline -20
git diff --stat HEAD~10

Identify which areas of the project were modified and map to testable features.

Known Issues

Check the backlog for known gaps and bugs that are still TODO:

  • Read relevant epic files in docs/reference/backlog/
  • These are confirmed issues — test around them but don't spend time re-discovering them

Recent Sprint Work

  • Read docs/progress.md for latest sprint info
  • Check docs/sprints/ for recent sprint specs with acceptance criteria

UAT Coverage

  • Read docs/testing/UAT_COVERAGE.md (if it exists) for test case status
  • Identify which areas have not been tested yet

Product Requirements & Personas

  • Read docs/context/personas.md (if it exists) for lean persona cards — these provide CONTEXT, GOALS, FRUSTRATIONS, BEHAVIORS, EVALUATES BY, and FAILURE LOOKS LIKE fields that directly inform exploratory testing in Phase 3C
  • Read docs/reference/PRD_SUMMARY.md (if it exists) for success criteria and user flows
  • Section 3 (success criteria) identify what to prioritize testing
  • Section 4 (user flows) provide the core scenarios to regression test
  • If both personas.md and PRD Section 2 exist, prefer personas.md (richer behavioral detail for test generation)

2. Pre-Flight Checks

Before manual testing, verify the system is ready:

Run the project's test command (from CLAUDE.md) to ensure automated tests pass.

If pre-flight fails, fix issues before proceeding to manual testing.

3. Generate Test Plan

Generate a structured test plan covering three areas:

A. Regression Tests (from recent changes)

Based on the git diff, generate specific test scenarios for recently modified code:

#### Regression: [Area changed]
- [ ] **Scenario**: [What to test] — **Steps**: [How to test] — **Expected**: [What should happen]

What ships with it

1 file 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.
