Testing &amp; QA

improve-skill-quality

Diagnoses and fixes skills in the dotnet/skills repository that lose to their own baseline, fail to activate, time out, or return "no credible improvement". Use when an evaluation verdict is a regression or underpowered, when a skill regressed after a change, when /evaluate reports no results, or when deciding whether a weak skill should be strengthened or retired. Do not use for scaffolding a brand-new skill (use create-skill) or a brand-new eval (use create-skill-test).

Use when the user asks for 小红书图文, Rednote/Xiaohongshu images, social cards, carousel images, 3:4 covers, Live Photo, 实况照片, 单视频实况拼图, 二宫格实况拼图, 三连实况拼图, 四宫格实况拼图, 微信公众号封面, WeChat 21:9 + 1:1 covers, Swiss Style, or magazine-style social images.

migrate-xunit-to-mstest

Convert .NET tests from xUnit.net v2/v3 to MSTest v4 while preserving VSTest or MTP. Use for replacing xunit packages, Fact/Theory/InlineData/MemberData, assertions, IClassFixture/ICollectionFixture, ITestOutputHelper, TestContext cancellation, traits/Owner, skips, timeouts, and xUnit parallelization. Also use when a "convert xUnit to MSTest" request may already be migrated: inspect and report the no-op. Do not use for xUnit v2-to-v3, MSTest upgrades, NUnit/TUnit conversion, or runner-only VSTest-to-MTP migration.

vitest

Vitest fast unit testing framework powered by Vite with Jest-compatible API. Use when writing tests, mocking, configuring coverage, or working with test filtering and fixtures.

apple-crash-symbolication

Symbolicate .NET runtime frames in Apple platform .ips crash logs (iOS, tvOS, Mac Catalyst, macOS). Extracts UUIDs and addresses from the native backtrace, locates dSYM debug symbols, and runs atos to produce function names with source file and line numbers. Automatically downloads .dwarf symbols from the Microsoft symbol server using Mach-O UUIDs. USE FOR triaging a .NET MAUI or Mono app crash from an .ips file on any Apple platform, resolving native backtrace frames in libcoreclr or libmonosgen-2.0 to .NET runtime source code, retrieving .ips crash logs from a connected iOS device or iPhone, or investigating EXC_CRASH, EXC_BAD_ACCESS, SIGABRT, or SIGSEGV originating from the .NET runtime. DO NOT USE FOR pure Swift/Objective-C crashes with no .NET components, or Android tombstone files. INVOKES Symbolicate-Crash.ps1 script, atos, dwarfdump, idevicecrashreport.

test-smell-detection

Audits existing tests in any language using formal, research-backed test smell names and the testsmells.org 19-smell academic taxonomy. Use when the caller asks for an academic or citable test-smell review, named smell categories, or a formal severity-ranked smell assessment. Covers Assertion Roulette, Conditional Test Logic, Mystery Guest, Eager Test, Sleepy Test, Unknown Test, Sensitive Equality, and the rest of the catalog across .NET, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Go, Ruby, Rust, Swift, Kotlin, PowerShell, and C++. DO NOT USE FOR a quick pragmatic test review (use test-anti-patterns), writing or running tests, framework migration, coverage, or assertion-diversity metrics.

test-gap-analysis

Pseudo-mutation analysis ONLY: find caller-visible production-code changes that existing assertions would not catch, then optionally close verified gaps. Activate only when the request asks whether a bug/change/mutation could survive, names behavioral blind spots, or asks for missing edge cases tied to production behavior. Polyglot. DO NOT USE FOR: suite organization, taxonomy, metadata, or distribution reports (test-tagging); .NET line-vs-branch or Cobertura interpretation, arithmetic, plateaus, project-wide coverage gaps, or coverage-backed test/CRAP priorities (coverage-analysis; use native coverage tooling outside .NET); named-target CRAP (crap-score); new suites (code-testing-agent); assertion/smell audits; or mutation tools.

create-skill-test

Scaffolds eval.yaml evaluation specs for agent skills in the dotnet/skills repository. Use when creating skill tests, writing evaluation stimuli, defining graders and rubrics, sizing an eval for statistical power, or setting up test fixture files. Handles the Vally eval.yaml schema, fixture organization, and overfitting avoidance. Do not use for running or debugging existing evals (use improve-skill-quality) nor for skills authoring (use create-skill).

platform-detection

Identify a .NET project's test platform, framework, command mode, and SDK-style vs classic project system. Use only for "which test platform/framework?", "VSTest or MTP?", or "what runner does this project use?", including bridge settings, UseVSTest opt-outs, and incompatible or conflicting VSTest/MTP configuration. Resolves global.json, project, packages.config, Directory.Build.props, and Directory.Packages.props precedence for MSTest/xUnit/NUnit/TUnit. For running/filtering tests, exact commands or flags, TRX/dumps, and test-command/filter errors, use run-tests. Do not use for hot reload or migration.

dotnet-pinvoke

Correctly call native (C/C++) libraries from .NET using P/Invoke and LibraryImport. Covers function signatures, string marshalling, memory lifetime, SafeHandle, and cross-platform patterns. USE FOR: writing new P/Invoke or LibraryImport declarations, reviewing or debugging existing native interop code, wrapping a C or C++ library for use in .NET, diagnosing crashes, memory leaks, or corruption at the managed/native boundary. DO NOT USE FOR: COM interop, C++/CLI mixed-mode assemblies, or pure managed code with no native dependencies.

microbenchmarking

Activate this skill when BenchmarkDotNet (BDN) is involved in the task — creating, running, configuring, or reviewing BDN benchmarks. Also activate when microbenchmarking .NET code would be useful and BenchmarkDotNet is the likely tool. Consider activating when answering a .NET performance question requires measurement and BenchmarkDotNet may be needed. Covers microbenchmark design, BDN configuration and project setup, how to run BDN microbenchmarks efficiently and effectively, and using BDN for side-by-side performance comparisons. Do NOT use for profiling/tracing .NET code (dotnet-trace, PerfView), production telemetry, or load/stress testing (Crank, k6).

directory-build-organization

5.2Ktesting-qa

Guide for organizing MSBuild infrastructure with Directory.Build.props, Directory.Build.targets, Directory.Packages.props, and Directory.Build.rsp. USE FOR: structuring multi-project repos, centralizing build settings, implementing NuGet Central Package Management (CPM) with ManagePackageVersionsCentrally, consolidating duplicated properties across .csproj files, setting up multi-level Directory.Build hierarchy with GetPathOfFileAbove, understanding evaluation order (Directory.Build.props → SDK .props → .csproj → SDK .targets → Directory.Build.targets). Critical pitfall: $(TargetFramework) conditions in .props silently fail for single-targeting projects — must use .targets. DO NOT USE FOR: non-MSBuild build systems, migrating legacy projects to SDK-style (use msbuild-modernization), single-project solutions with no shared settings.

android-emulator

4.4Ktesting-qa

Verify and debug native, React Native, Expo, or Flutter apps on an Android Emulator with agent-device. Use when an agent needs to launch an app, inspect its live UI, tap, type, scroll, validate a code change, collect failure evidence, or reproduce a workflow on an Android virtual device.

ios-simulator

4.3Ktesting-qa

Verify and debug native, React Native, Expo, or Flutter apps on an iOS Simulator with agent-device. Use when an agent needs to launch an app, inspect its live UI, tap, type, scroll, validate a code change, collect failure evidence, or reproduce a workflow on an iPhone or iPad Simulator.

excalidraw-diagram

agent-device

4Ktesting-qa

Automates Apple-platform apps (iOS, tvOS, macOS), Android devices, and Amazon Vega OS TV apps in Vega Virtual Devices. Use when navigating apps, taking snapshots/screenshots where supported, driving TV remotes, tapping, typing, scrolling, extracting UI info, collecting evidence, or planning agent-device CLI commands.

printing-press-output-review

4Ktesting-qa

Internal sub-skill: agentic review of a printed CLI's sampled command output for plausibility issues that rule-based checks can't encode (substring-match relevance, format bugs, silent source drops, ranking failures). Invoked via the Skill tool by main printing-press SKILL.md (Phase 4.85) and printing-press-polish SKILL.md during the diagnostic loop. Not for direct user invocation — its actionable wrappers are /printing-press and /printing-press-polish.
