When should I use this skill?

Use this skill whenever you ask Claude to write or modify tests, such as creating unit or integration tests for a new feature. It's perfect for enforcing consistent, high-quality testing standards across your codebase.

How does this skill improve my workflow?

It accelerates development by preventing over-testing. By focusing only on critical paths, it reduces time spent writing and maintaining tests, provides faster feedback with quick-running tests, and helps you ship features faster with confidence.

What does the Testing Writing Guidelines skill do?

This skill guides Claude to adopt a minimalist testing strategy. It prioritizes writing focused tests for critical user flows and core business logic, while deferring tests for non-essential edge cases until explicitly requested.

What core capabilities does this skill provide?

It provides a decision framework for what to test, enforces clear naming conventions and behavior-focused assertions, requires mocking of external dependencies (like APIs and databases), and ensures tests are fast and efficient.

セキュリティとテスト

Enforces a minimalist testing strategy by focusing on critical user flows, clear naming conventions, and fast execution.

概要

This skill implements a strategic and minimalist approach to test writing, directing Claude to focus exclusively on core user flows and critical business logic. It prioritizes creating fast, behavior-focused tests with clear, descriptive names and proper mocking of external dependencies. By deferring tests for edge cases and non-critical utilities until explicitly requested, this skill helps streamline the development process, providing a robust testing foundation for the most important "happy path" functionality without getting bogged down in exhaustive, upfront test creation.
