Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned dalestudy/skills at a11368b0a0.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides guidance and best practices for writing tests using React Testing Library. It emphasizes testing components as users would interact with them, focusing on accessibility-based queries and simulating user actions rather than directly testing implementation details. The goal is to create robust and maintainable tests that accurately reflect the user experience.

When to use it

  • When developing or refactoring React components where you want to ensure test quality aligns with user interaction patterns.
  • To learn and apply best practices for writing effective React Testing Library tests.
  • When encountering challenges in creating reliable tests, particularly around asynchronous operations or simulating user events.
  • For teams adopting or standardizing their approach to testing React components.

Key capabilities

  • Query Prioritization: Provides a recommended order of queries (getByRole -> getByLabelText -> etc.) based on accessibility and user experience considerations.
  • User Interaction Simulation: Encourages the use of userEvent for simulating user actions, avoiding direct event triggering with fireEvent.
  • Asynchronous Handling: Promotes the use of findBy queries to explicitly wait for asynchronous operations to complete during tests.
  • Best Practices & Anti-Patterns: Offers guidance on common pitfalls and recommended approaches for writing effective React Testing Library tests.

Example prompts

  • "Show me the recommended order of queries in React Testing Library."
  • "How do I simulate a user clicking a button using React Testing Library?"
  • "Explain how to handle asynchronous operations when testing with React Testing Library."

Tips & gotchas

  • This skill focuses specifically on React Testing Library. It's not applicable for other testing frameworks.
  • Always await methods from userEvent.
  • Prioritize accessibility-based queries (getByRole) whenever possible to ensure tests accurately reflect how users interact with the component.
