Organize and run the backend repository's tests: where a test file goes (tests/__tests__ for tests that do not write to the database, tests/_orders for tests that do), how run order among DB-writing tests is guaranteed, how to run the whole suite or a single test, and the purity rules for tests and their doubles. Use whenever the user asks where to place a test, how to guarantee test order, how to run tests, or how to keep tests pure. Manual E2E verification is out of scope.
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 A skill for **implementing tests in a backend repository**: **where** each test file belongs, **how** DB-writing tests are ordered so they do not corrupt each other, **how** to run them, and the **purity** rules that keep a failing test meaningful. It governs test *organization and discipline* — the *writing style* of an individual test (describe/test structure, case data, naming) follows the project's own Jest conventions and is out of scope here. > This skill states a **general, project-independent rule**, not one repo's current tree. The > directory names (`tests/__tests__`, `tests/_orders`, `tests/mocks`, `tests/tools`) are the > **recommended layout** — map them onto your project. Sample code follows the project's lint style > (no semicolons, 2-space indent, trailing commas). ## Core principle: a test fails only when the code under test is wrong A test must fail **only** because the code it exercises is wrong — not because another test ran first, and not because the test itself contains untested logic. Two rules enforce that, and everything below follows from them: …

How to install
mdr add openreachtech/hora-skills-ort-renchan/hor-backend-testing@sha256:d26c592cf05c2164The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.ade0c6a, 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.
