Run Tests Skill
Trigger Phrases
This skill is automatically triggered when the user:
- Asks to "run tests" or "execute tests"
- Requests test verification or checking
- Wants to "test" or "verify" code
- Mentions "test suite", "test coverage", or "test results"
- Asks if tests pass or fail
Delegation Instructions
When this skill is triggered:
- Delegate immediately to the
test-runner agent
- Specify which tests to run (all, specific files, etc.)
- Include test options if mentioned (coverage, watch, etc.)
- Provide context about recent changes
- Include any test configuration
Context to Pass
- Test Scope: Which tests to run (all, specific, etc.)
- Test Options: Coverage, watch mode, etc.
- Recent Changes: Code changes that might affect tests
- Environment: Test environment requirements
- Configuration: Test configuration or options
- Expected Results: What should pass
Agent Responsibilities
The test-runner agent will:
- Execute the appropriate test commands
- Analyze test results
- Report test outcomes
- Identify test failures
- Provide test statistics
- Suggest next steps for failures
Usage Examples
Example 1: Run All Tests
User: "Run all tests to make sure everything works"
Delegation: Delegate to test-runner with:
- Scope: All tests
- Context: Recent code changes
Example 2: Specific Tests
User: "Run the authentication tests"
Delegation: Delegate to test-runner with:
- Scope: Authentication test files
- Focus: Authentication functionality
Example 3: With Coverage
User: "Run tests with coverage report"
Delegation: Delegate to test-runner with:
- Scope: All tests
- Options: Coverage report
- Goal: Check test coverage
Best Practices
- Delegate test execution to test-runner
- Specify test scope clearly
- Include test options if needed
- Provide context about changes
- Request detailed results
