test-quality SKILL.md skillA

test-quality from techygarg/lattice is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add techygarg/lattice/test-quality@git:20260903.83fa756

Pins git:20260903.83fa756 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Apply test quality principles when generating or reviewing test code. Enforces Arrange-Act-Assert structure, one behavior per test, assertion quality, test isolation, meaningful naming, and test data management. Use when writing tests, reviewing test code, or when the user mentions 'write tests', 'test this', 'test quality', 'test review', 'improve tests', or 'test structure'. Loaded automatically by the code-generating molecules (code-forge, refactor-safely, bug-fix). This skill governs the…

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.

# Test Quality

## Config Resolution

Projects can customize this skill's standards. Resolution order:

1. Read `.lattice/config.yaml` in the repo root.
2. If found, check `paths.test_quality` for a custom document path.
3. If a custom document exists at that path, read it and check its YAML frontmatter for `mode`:
   - **`mode: override`**: the custom document has full control. Use it instead of the embedded defaults. It must be complete -- treat it as the sole reference.
   - **`mode: overlay`** (or no mode field): read the embedded `./references/defaults.md` first, then apply the custom document on top. A custom section replaces the matching default section (matched by exact heading); new sections append after the defaults.
4. If a custom path is configured but no document exists at it → tell the user which configured path is missing, then fall back to `./references/defaults.md`.
5. If there is no config file or no `paths.test_quality` key, read `./references/defaults.md`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add techygarg/lattice/test-quality@sha256:48eb59828bc27086

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260903.83fa756, 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.
