test-suite-architect

test-suite-architect is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zebbern/claude-code-guide. It costs 89 tokens per session (2,577 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A quality-assurance toolkit for organising software testing. It helps define test cases, test plans, bug reports, progress tracking, and quality measurements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set up QA for a project, write tests, run test plans, classify bugs by priority, track coverage and pass rates, and prepare handoff documentation.
Why use it?
Testing work can become inconsistent when teams lack shared formats and a clear record of what was checked. This provides templates and processes for managing that work.

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

test-suite-architect 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/calculate_metrics.py, scripts/init_qa_project.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.

QA Expert

Establish world-class QA testing processes for any software project using proven methodologies from Google Testing Standards and OWASP security best practices.

When to Use This Skill

Trigger this skill when:

  • Setting up QA infrastructure for a new or existing project
  • Writing standardized test cases (AAA pattern compliance)
  • Executing comprehensive test plans with progress tracking
  • Implementing security testing (OWASP Top 10)
  • Filing bugs with proper severity classification (P0-P4)
  • Generating QA reports (daily summaries, weekly progress)
  • Calculating quality metrics (pass rate, coverage, gates)
  • Preparing QA documentation for third-party team handoffs
  • Enabling autonomous LLM-driven test execution

Quick Start

One-command initialization:

python scripts/init_qa_project.py <project-name> [output-directory]

What gets created:

  • Directory structure (tests/docs/, tests/e2e/, tests/fixtures/)
  • Tracking CSVs (TEST-EXECUTION-TRACKING.csv, BUG-TRACKING-TEMPLATE.csv)
  • Documentation templates (BASELINE-METRICS.md, WEEKLY-PROGRESS-REPORT.md)
  • Master QA Prompt for autonomous execution
  • README with complete quickstart guide

For autonomous execution (recommended): See references/master_qa_prompt.md - single copy-paste command for 100x speedup.

Core Capabilities

1. QA Project Initialization

Initialize complete QA infrastructure with all templates:

python scripts/init_qa_project.py <project-name> [output-directory]

Creates directory structure, tracking CSVs, documentation templates, and master prompt for autonomous execution.

Use when: Starting QA from scratch or migrating to structured QA process.

2. Test Case Writing

Write standardized, reproducible test cases following AAA pattern (Arrange-Act-Assert):

  1. Read template: assets/templates/TEST-CASE-TEMPLATE.md
  2. Follow structure: Prerequisites (Arrange) → Test Steps (Act) → Expected Results (Assert)
  3. Assign priority: P0 (blocker) → P4 (low)
  4. Include edge cases and potential bugs

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.
