Turn backend test ambiguity into one practical backend test packet. Use when the user needs API/service/repository/auth-flow coverage design, fixture or seed/reset strategy, container-vs-mock dependency choices, contract/API compatibility checks, or flaky backend-suite stabilization across local and CI.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Backend Testing

Use this skill as a **packet-first backend testing router**.

The job is not to dump boilerplate for every framework. The job is to:
1. classify the request into the right backend test packet,
2. pick the smallest credible mix of test layers,
3. make dependency realism and data control explicit,
4. split local vs PR vs slower lanes honestly,
5. route policy, contract-shape, and auth-implementation work away when they are the real task.

Read these when needed:
- references/intake-packets-and-route-outs.md
- references/test-layer-matrix.md
- references/stability-checklist.md

## When to use this skill
- Add or repair backend coverage for APIs, services, repositories, workers, integrations, or auth flows
- Decide whether a backend change needs unit, integration, contract/API, or narrow smoke coverage
- Design fixture, factory, seed/reset, auth bootstrap, or environment-control strategy
- Decide when to use mocks, fakes, containers, or real dependencies
- Stabilize flaky backend suites, especially CI-only failures and local-vs-CI drift
- Review whether a backend suite is too broad, too slow, too mock-heavy, or missing a key layer

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add akillness/jeo-skills/backend-testing@sha256:e2381a1c68df3da5

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
