How does this skill handle external dependencies like curl?

It provides templates for command stubbing and function mocking, allowing you to simulate the behavior of external tools without actually calling them.

What is Bats in the context of shell scripting?

Bats (Bash Automated Testing System) is a TAP-compliant testing framework for shell scripts that provides a simple syntax for assertions and fixtures.

Can I use this skill to test scripts in different shells?

Yes, this skill includes specific patterns for validating script behavior across Bash, sh, and Dash to ensure portability and compatibility.

Does this support automated testing in GitHub Actions?

Absolutely. The skill includes pre-configured YAML patterns for integrating Bats tests directly into GitHub Actions workflows.

How do I manage temporary files created during testing?

The skill provides standardized setup and teardown patterns using mktemp to ensure every test has a clean environment and leaves no residue.
