test-design SKILL.md skillA
test-design from umararshad4/honey-stack is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Design the test matrix and hard edge cases for a feature before writing tests: equivalence/boundary/decision-table/state/pairwise, data-type and systemic edge-case checklists, property-based tests. Feeds tdd.
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
# test-design
Turn a feature into a prioritized list of test cases, including the edge cases most features miss, then hand them to the `tdd` skill to write. This chooses *what* to test; `tdd` writes it and `qa` drives the browser. Finding the bug cheaply is the goal, not maximizing case count.
## Procedure
1. **Restate the behavior** as testable statements: explicit requirements, implicit invariants ("balance never negative"), and acceptance criteria.
2. **Name inputs, outputs, state, side effects, limits.**
3. **Derive cases** with the fitting technique (see `references/techniques.md`):
- ranges/inputs → equivalence partitioning + **boundary value analysis** (the highest-yield one: test `min-1, min, min+1, max-1, max, max+1`)
- combinational rules → decision table
- stateful feature → state-transition, including **illegal** transitions
- many parameters → pairwise

How to install
mdr add umararshad4/honey-stack/test-design@sha256:820f27aa6b583873The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.c52b424, 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.
