Generates Selenium WebDriver tests for React/Angular front-ends with STRICT loop prevention. Triggers on: "test UI", "generate Selenium tests", "test React app", "create E2E tests", "test front-end". WARNING: UI tests cost 3x more than unit tests -- generate selectively.
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
# Selenium UI Test Generator
**Cost warning:** UI tests cost 30-50 credits each (vs. 10-15 for unit tests). Always inform the user of this before generating.
## Instructions
### Step 1: Flow Selection
Ask the user to pick **2-3 critical flows maximum** (e.g., login, form submission, checkout). Provide cost comparison so they can make an informed choice.
### Step 2: Get Selectors Upfront
**This is critical for avoiding wasted iterations.** Ask the user to provide:
1. `data-testid` attributes (preferred)
2. Or element IDs/classes from browser dev tools
Without real selectors, tests will likely fail and waste credits. If the user cannot provide selectors, warn them of the higher failure risk before proceeding.
See `references/react-testid-guide.md` for the recommended `data-testid` pattern.
Load selectors from `assets/selectors-config.json` when available.
### Step 3: Generate ONE Test at a Time
Unlike unit/API skills, generate only **1 UI test per iteration** due to the high cost.
Use explicit waits and `data-testid` selectors:
```java
@Test
void testUserLogin() {
driver.get("http://localhost:3000/login");

How to install
mdr add timwukp/agent-skills-best-practice/selenium-ui-test-generator@sha256:0d0479ee4027fc11The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
