Use when writing or reviewing tests, designing test data, naming a test, choosing what to assert, or writing test helpers/mocks/fixtures.
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
# Testing Discipline ## Overview **A good test pins the contract, uses concrete examples, names the scenario in domain language, and uses test data safe to show a customer.** Run the checklist in order when writing or reviewing a test. ## When to invoke Invoke when you're about to: - Write a new test (unit, integration, end-to-end, characterization) - Name or rename a test method, test class, or test file - Design a fixture, mock, stub, or shared test helper - Choose test data — names, IDs, sample strings, sample numbers - Decide what to assert in a test (exact value? structural property? both?) - Schedule a long-running suite (soak, perf, cross-platform matrix) - Hand off requirements between programmers and testers, or work on acceptance tests - Review existing tests for quality, coverage gaps, or test smells - Evaluate whether a test suite adequately covers a contract ### Non-triggers — do NOT invoke for - Running the existing test suite (`npm test`, `pytest`) - Fixing a one-line broken assertion where the intent is unchanged - Adding a docstring or comment to an existing test - Reordering imports in a test file …

How to install
mdr add oribarilan/97/testing-discipline@sha256:ad4934e208a4c72cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260510.17c5ab8, 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.
