| description | Use when the user wants to write, run, or troubleshoot automated regression tests for Protheus routines with ADVPR (Advanced Protheus Robot) -- covering FWTestHelper API, TestSuite/GPS de Testes setup, headless execution via FwExecSuite, and per-pattern scripting (MVC, ExecAuto/MSExecAuto, reports, processing routines, webservices, SmartLink, Smart View, single-message/TOTVS Message) plus routine preparation (screen bypass) and best practices. Also triggers on Portuguese phrasing like "teste automatizado", "robo de testes", "automacao de testes Protheus", "rodar suite de testes", "FWMyTestRunner", "GPS de testes", or "preparar rotina para teste automatico".

ADVPR — Automação de Testes Protheus
This skill covers writing and running automated business-rule regression tests for TOTVS Protheus using ADVPR, the internal ADVPL-based test robot. It explains the FWTestHelper assertion API, how to register and organize test cases in a TestSuite (GPS de Testes), how to run suites with or without UI (FWMyTestRunner vs headless FwExecSuite), and per-routine-pattern scripting guidance for MVC, ExecAuto/MSExecAuto, reports, processing routines, webservices (REST/SOAP/Portal), SmartLink, Smart View, and TOTVS Message (single-message) flows. It also covers "routine preparation" -- adjusting legacy code so it runs screen-free during official headless execution -- and general ADVPR scripting best practices.
Activate this skill when the user wants to create or debug an ADVPR test script, set up a TestSuite, diagnose a TimeOut or unexpected-screen failure during headless execution, or needs guidance on which ADVPR pattern applies to a given routine type. It does not cover manual/interface-driven QA, unit testing of isolated ADVPL functions outside ADVPR, or general debugging of runtime/compilation errors unrelated to test automation (see advpl-debugging).
