Can I test federation features like WebFinger with this skill?

Absolutely. The skill includes specific patterns for testing WebFinger discovery, actor object JSON responses, and other federation-specific interactions.

What is the ActivityPub Testing skill?

It is a specialized capability for Claude Code that provides templates, patterns, and commands for testing ActivityPub protocols within a WordPress development environment.

Does this skill support both unit and end-to-end testing?

Yes, it provides guidance for PHPUnit (unit/integration testing) and Playwright (end-to-end browser testing).

Is this only for the WordPress ActivityPub plugin?

While the examples are optimized for the WordPress ActivityPub plugin environment, the testing patterns for Playwright and federation logic are applicable to many ActivityPub implementations.

How does it help with debugging failed tests?

It provides specific CLI commands for running isolated tests, enabling verbose debug output, and utilizing error logging within the PHPUnit framework.
