Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill assists AI agents in understanding and implementing Dart testing fundamentals. It covers core concepts like test structure (tests and groups), lifecycle methods (setUp, tearDown, setUpAll, tearDownAll), configuration via dart_test.yaml, and file naming conventions. The skill is intended to help with writing new test files and structuring existing test suites within a Dart project.
When to use it
- Writing new Dart test files.
- Structuring tests into logical groups using the
groupconstruct. - Configuring test execution options, such as platforms and timeouts, in
dart_test.yaml. - Understanding how lifecycle methods like
setUpandtearDownaffect test isolation.
Key capabilities
- Test Structure: Defining tests and organizing them into nested groups.
- Lifecycle Methods: Utilizing
setUp,tearDown,setUpAll, andtearDownAllfor managing test state. - Configuration: Configuring the Dart test runner through the
dart_test.yamlfile, including platforms, tags, and timeouts. - File Naming: Understanding the required naming convention (
*_test.dart) for test files.
Example prompts
- "Show me how to create a group of tests in Dart."
- "Explain how to configure timeout settings using
dart_test.yaml." - "What is the purpose of the
setUpmethod in a Dart test?"
Tips & gotchas
- Test files must end with
_test.dartand reside within thetest/directory to be recognized by the test runner. - Avoid wrapping all tests in a single group at the file level.
- Named parameters for tests (e.g.,
testOn,timeout) should be placed immediately after the description string for improved readability.
