Use only when writing/updating/fixing C++ tests, configuring GoogleTest/CTest, diagnosing failing or flaky tests, or adding coverage/sanitizers.
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
# C++ Testing (Agent Skill) Agent-focused testing workflow for modern C++ (C++17/20) using GoogleTest/GoogleMock with CMake/CTest. ## When to Use - Writing new C++ tests or fixing existing tests - Designing unit/integration test coverage for C++ components - Adding test coverage, CI gating, or regression protection - Configuring CMake/CTest workflows for consistent execution - Investigating test failures or flaky behavior - Enabling sanitizers for memory/race diagnostics ### When NOT to Use - Implementing new product features without test changes - Large-scale refactors unrelated to test coverage or failures - Performance tuning without test regressions to validate - Non-C++ projects or non-test tasks ## Core Concepts - **TDD loop**: red → green → refactor (tests first, minimal fix, then cleanups). - **Isolation**: prefer dependency injection and fakes over global state. - **Test layout**: `tests/unit`, `tests/integration`, `tests/testdata`. - **Mocks vs fakes**: mock for interactions, fake for stateful behavior. - **CTest discovery**: use `gtest_discover_tests()` for stable test discovery. - **CI signal**: run subset first, then full suite with `--output-on-failure`. …

How to install
mdr add affaan-m/ecc/cpp-testing@sha256:486ff8479ca5b81fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260607.4ad5756, 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.
