testing-strategy

testing-strategy is a skill for Claude Code from sun2443/designer-skills. It costs 56 tokens per session (273 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of testing-strategy, Apache-2.0.

A skill that designs a testing strategy, which is a plan for checking software at different levels and deciding what coverage matters.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan unit, integration, end-to-end, contract, frontend, data-pipeline, and infrastructure tests, including edge cases and security boundaries.
Why use it?
It helps avoid both missing important failures and spending time testing trivial code or using unsuitable test types.

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-strategy 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 13d 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 Strategy

Design effective testing strategies balancing coverage, speed, and maintenance.

Testing Pyramid

        /  E2E  \         Few, slow, high confidence
       / Integration \     Some, medium speed
      /    Unit Tests  \   Many, fast, focused

Strategy by Component Type

  • API endpoints: Unit tests for business logic, integration tests for HTTP layer, contract tests for consumers
  • Data pipelines: Input validation, transformation correctness, idempotency tests
  • Frontend: Component tests, interaction tests, visual regression, accessibility
  • Infrastructure: Smoke tests, chaos engineering, load tests

What to Cover

Focus on: business-critical paths, error handling, edge cases, security boundaries, data integrity.

Skip: trivial getters/setters, framework code, one-off scripts.

Output

Produce a test plan with: what to test, test type for each area, coverage targets, and example test cases. Identify gaps in existing coverage.

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.
