Use this skill when you need to plan manual or exploratory testing with charters, heuristics, and session records; triggers include manual testing and exploratory testing.
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
# Manual/Exploratory Testing **Chinese version:** See the corresponding Chinese skill. ## When to Use - Need help with manual testing in a real project context. - Need an output that can be used directly for execution, review, or follow-up. ## Workflow 1. Read and follow the main prompt listed under Progressive disclosure (coverage, structure, quality bar). 2. Add only project context that changes the result: scope, environment, constraints, risks, dependencies, expected deliverable. 3. If input is incomplete, return a usable first draft and explicitly mark assumptions and gaps. 4. Default to Markdown; switch formats only when the user asks. ## Domain Execution Essentials 1. Give each time-box a charter: task/risk, environment/build, data, exploration scope, deadline, and evidence. Track scripted execution and exploration separately within authorization. 2. Record precondition→action→expected→actual→evidence ID→state. Not started is NOT_RUN, interrupted is INCOMPLETE, environment prevention is BLOCKED; a checklist is no execution log. …

How to install
mdr add naodeng/awesome-qa-skills/manual-testing@sha256:a7cb812ec0b8abe7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.7d9502b, 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.
