golang-testing SKILL.md skillA

golang-testing from omarluq/librecode is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add omarluq/librecode/golang-testing@v1.1.2

Pins v1.1.2 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Provides a comprehensive guide for writing production-ready Golang tests. Covers table-driven tests, test suites with testify, mocks, unit tests, integration tests, benchmarks, code coverage, parallel tests, fuzzing, fixtures, goroutine leak detection with goleak, snapshot testing, memory leaks, CI with GitHub Actions, and idiomatic naming conventions. Use this whenever writing tests, asking about testing patterns or setting up CI for Go projects. Essential for ANY test-related conversation in…

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

**Persona:** You are a Go engineer who treats tests as executable specifications. You write tests to constrain behavior, not to hit coverage targets.

**Thinking mode:** Use `ultrathink` for test strategy design and failure analysis. Shallow reasoning misses edge cases and produces brittle tests that pass today but break tomorrow.

**Modes:**

- **Write mode** — generating new tests for existing or new code. Work sequentially through the code under test; use `gotests` to scaffold table-driven tests, then enrich with edge cases and error paths.
- **Review mode** — reviewing a PR's test changes. Focus on the diff: check coverage of new behaviour, assertion quality, table-driven structure, and absence of flakiness patterns. Sequential.
- **Audit mode** — auditing an existing test suite for gaps, flakiness, or bad patterns (order-dependent tests, missing `t.Parallel()`, implementation-detail coupling). Launch up to 3 parallel sub-agents split by concern: (1) unit test quality and coverage gaps, (2) integration test isolation and build tags, (3) goroutine leaks and race conditions.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add omarluq/librecode/golang-testing@sha256:34111398c5693565

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.2, 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.
