Does this skill help with CI/CD integration?

Absolutely. It provides ready-to-use configurations for GitHub Actions and Makefiles to ensure your shell tests run automatically on every push.

Can I mock external commands like curl or jq with this skill?

Yes, this skill includes specific patterns for command stubbing and function mocking to isolate your script from external dependencies during tests.

What is Bats in the context of shell testing?

Bats (Bash Automated Testing System) is a TAP-compliant testing framework for Bash that provides a simple way to verify that shell scripts behave as expected.

Can I use Bats to test scripts in shells other than Bash?

Yes, while Bats itself is Bash-based, it can be used to execute and validate scripts running in sh, dash, and other POSIX-compliant shells.

安全与测试

Provides comprehensive patterns and best practices for writing production-grade unit tests for shell scripts using the Bats framework.

关于

This skill empowers developers to implement robust, automated testing for shell scripts by leveraging the Bash Automated Testing System (Bats). It provides expert guidance on structuring test files, managing fixtures, mocking external commands, and validating exit codes or output across different shell environments like Bash, sh, and dash. Whether you are building complex CI/CD pipelines or simple utility scripts, this skill ensures your shell code is maintainable, portable, and bug-free through proven test-driven development (TDD) patterns and standardized fixture management.
