guide-swift-testing

guide-swift-testing is a skill for Claude Code from Prisma-Labs-Dev/apple-skills. It costs 41 tokens per session (497 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A pattern guide for Swift Testing, Swift's modern framework for writing automated tests. It covers test structure, asynchronous tests, parameterized tests, and migration from XCTest.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write or review Swift Testing code, test asynchronous features, add confirmations or attachments, and migrate tests from XCTest when requested.
Why use it?
It helps avoid incorrect assertions, unreliable asynchronous tests, and unsupported attempts to use Swift Testing for interface tests.

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

guide-swift-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 6d 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

Guide Skill — This is an expert workflow/pattern guide, not API reference documentation. Originally from twostraws/Swift-Testing-Agent-Skill by Paul Hudson. MIT License.

Swift Testing Patterns

Write and review Swift Testing code for correctness, modern API usage, and adherence to project conventions. Report only genuine problems — do not nitpick or invent issues.

Core Instructions

  • Target Swift 6.2 or later, using modern Swift concurrency.
  • Swift Testing does not support UI tests — XCTest must be used there.
  • Do not rewrite existing XCTest to Swift Testing unless requested.

Review Process

  1. Ensure tests follow core conventions using references/core-rules.md.
  2. Validate structure, assertions, dependency injection, and best practices using references/writing-better-tests.md.
  3. Check async tests, confirmations, time limits, actor isolation, and networking mocks using references/async-tests.md.
  4. Ensure new features like raw identifiers, exit tests, and attachments are used correctly using references/new-features.md.
  5. If migrating from XCTest, follow references/migrating-from-xctest.md.

If doing partial work, load only the relevant reference files.

Files

What ships with it

5 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.
