Live repository

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 sergiodxa/agent-skills at 40e21b4618.

    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 best practices for testing frontend applications, including strategies for unit, integration, and end-to-end testing. It emphasizes writing maintainable test suites, using appropriate tools, and ensuring tests are reliable and efficient.

When to use it

  • You're setting up a new frontend project and want to establish a robust testing strategy from the start.
  • Your team is experiencing flaky or unreliable tests and needs guidance on improving them.
  • You're preparing for code reviews and need to ensure test coverage meets quality standards.
  • You’re looking to optimize your test suite's performance without sacrificing reliability.

Key capabilities

  • Guidance on selecting the right testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, Cypress).
  • Recommendations for organizing test files and writing clean, readable tests.
  • Strategies for handling asynchronous code in tests.
  • Tips for maintaining test reliability and reducing flakiness.

Example prompts

  • "How can I structure my unit tests for a React component?"
  • "What are the best practices for end-to-end testing with Cypress?"
  • "How do I handle mocked API calls in my integration tests?"

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your test environment mirrors production as closely as possible to avoid false positives.
  • Avoid over-testing; focus on critical user flows and edge cases rather than every single line of code.
