test-generation SKILL.md skillA

test-generation from int2t05/engineering-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add int2t05/engineering-skills/test-generation@git:20261015.f440cbb

Pins git:20261015.f440cbb in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Add meaningful tests for existing behavior with actual project tooling. Triggers on "generate tests", "生成测试".

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

# Test Generation (Language-Agnostic)

## When to use

- Add meaningful tests for existing behavior with actual project tooling.

**Not for:** tdd for test-first changes; e2e-testing for journeys.

## Steps

1. Read the contract, public interface and tests; identify genuine gaps.

2. Build a compact normal, boundary, error and relevant state or concurrency matrix.

3. Use project layout, isolated data and independently derived expectations; label substitutes separately from integration.

4. Run cases and affected regressions and verify they detect the intended defect or missing behavior.

## Verify

- Tests exercise actual behavior reproducibly and detect meaningful failures rather than mirroring implementation.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add int2t05/engineering-skills/test-generation@sha256:98cd9648a5951a2f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.f440cbb, 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.
