How do I handle external dependencies like curl in tests?

This skill provides mocking and stubbing patterns to isolate your scripts from external network calls or system-level dependencies during testing by creating command stubs.

What is Bats in the context of shell scripting?

Bats (Bash Automated Testing System) is a TAP-compliant testing framework for Bash scripts that allows you to write assertions and verify script behavior in a clean, readable syntax.

Can this skill help with testing cross-shell compatibility?

Yes, it includes patterns to verify that scripts function correctly across different shell dialects such as Bash, sh, and Dash.

Is it possible to run Bats tests in a CI/CD pipeline?

Absolutely. This skill includes specific guidance and configuration examples for integrating Bats tests into platforms like GitHub Actions using TAP reporters.

Implements comprehensive unit and integration tests for shell scripts using the Bash Automated Testing System (Bats) framework.

소개

This skill provides specialized patterns and best practices for writing production-grade tests for shell scripts using Bats. It equips Claude with the ability to design test suites that cover exit codes, output validation, file system changes, and complex environment mocking. Whether you are building simple CLI utilities or complex orchestration scripts, this skill ensures your shell code is reliable, maintainable, and verified across different shell dialects like Bash, Sh, and Dash. It also includes specific guidance for integrating these tests into automated CI/CD pipelines and parallel execution environments.
