Use when creating or modifying acceptance tests, configuring cucumber-js or behave runners, writing or refactoring step definitions, linting executable Gherkin specs, choosing an acceptance stack, or implementing OpenSpec tasks that involve acceptance tests.
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
# Acceptance Test Authoring When `spec-as-source` is active, the acceptance suite executes the Gherkin specs that live under `openspec/` against the running application. Specs are Markdown files named `spec.md`: Markdown headings carry the capability, requirement, and scenario structure, while column-0 `gherkin` fences contain only Given/When/Then steps. The runner extracts them into real `.feature` files on every run, synthesizing `Feature:`/`Rule:`/`Scenario:` from the headings. This format is opt-in. Loading this skill without `spec-as-source` does not override the configured OpenSpec schema templates. Everything in this file is stack-agnostic. Tool-specific filenames, dependencies, commands, and examples live in the stack packs. ## Choosing The Stack The project's acceptance stack is declared as `stack:` in `openspec/config.yaml`: ```yaml schema: intent-driven stack: javascript # javascript | python ``` Resolve it in this order: 1. Use `stack:` in `openspec/config.yaml`. 2. If absent and `acceptance-tests/` already exists, infer it from contents: `cucumber.cjs` means `javascript`, `behave.ini` means `python`; offer to record it. …

How to install
mdr add intent-driven-dev/intent-driven-template/acceptance-test-authoring@sha256:bd2706d34c7e46ddThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260815.02a4647, 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.
