Run tests for a golem Shiny application. Triggers on: - "run the tests" - "test my golem app" - "run devtools test" Do not trigger on: - when the user is not working inside a golem app
Validate that all module input/output IDs are properly namespaced. Triggers on: - "check my modules for missing ns" - "find missing ns in modules" - "validate module namespaces" Do not trigger on: - when the user is not working inside a golem app
Automated, project-wide code coverage and CRAP (Change Risk Anti-Patterns) score analysis for .NET projects with existing unit tests. Auto-detects solution structure, runs coverage collection via `dotnet test` (supports both Microsoft.Testing.Extensions.CodeCoverage and Coverlet), generates reports via ReportGenerator, calculates CRAP scores per method, and surfaces risk hotspots — complex code with low test coverage that is dangerous to modify. Use when the user wants project-wide coverage analysis with risk prioritization, coverage gap identification, CRAP score computation across an entire solution, or to diagnose why coverage is stuck or plateaued and identify what methods are blocking improvement. DO NOT USE FOR: targeted single-method CRAP analysis (use crap-score skill), writing tests, running tests without coverage collection, applying test filters, producing TRX reports, or troubleshooting test execution (use run-tests for all of these).
Reference data for .NET test framework detection patterns, assertion APIs, skip annotations, setup/teardown methods, and common test smell indicators across MSTest, xUnit, NUnit, and TUnit. DO NOT USE directly — loaded by test analysis skills (test-anti-patterns, exp-test-smell-detection, exp-assertion-quality, exp-test-maintainability, exp-test-tagging) when they need framework-specific lookup tables.
Reference data for test filter syntax across all platform and framework combinations: VSTest --filter expressions, MTP filters for MSTest/NUnit/xUnit v3/TUnit, and VSTest-to-MTP filter translation. DO NOT USE directly — loaded by run-tests, mtp-hot-reload, and migrate-vstest-to-mtp when they need filter syntax.
Guide for optimizing MSBuild incremental builds. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. USE FOR: builds slower than expected on subsequent runs, 'nothing changed but it rebuilds anyway', diagnosing why targets re-execute unnecessarily, fixing broken no-op builds. Covers 8 common causes: missing Inputs/Outputs on custom targets, volatile properties in output paths (timestamps/GUIDs), file writes outside tracked Outputs, missing FileWrites registration, glob changes, Visual Studio Fast Up-to-Date Check (FUTDC) issues. Key diagnostic: look for 'Building target completely' vs 'Skipping target' in binlog. DO NOT USE FOR: first-time build slowness (use build-perf-baseline), parallelism issues (use build-parallelism), evaluation-phase slowness (use eval-performance), non-MSBuild build systems. INVOKES: dotnet build /bl, binlog replay with diagnostic verbosity.
Activate this skill when BenchmarkDotNet (BDN) is involved in the task — creating, running, configuring, or reviewing BDN benchmarks. Also activate when microbenchmarking .NET code would be useful and BenchmarkDotNet is the likely tool. Consider activating when answering a .NET performance question requires measurement and BenchmarkDotNet may be needed. Covers microbenchmark design, BDN configuration and project setup, how to run BDN microbenchmarks efficiently and effectively, and using BDN for side-by-side performance comparisons. Do NOT use for profiling/tracing .NET code (dotnet-trace, PerfView), production telemetry, or load/stress testing (Crank, k6).
Fix build errors and breaking changes after upgrading MSTest from v3 to v4, or plan a complete MSTest v3-to-v4 migration. Use when user says "upgrade to MSTest v4", "MSTest 4 migration", "MSTest v4 breaking changes", "tests don't compile after upgrading MSTest", or has errors CS0507, CS0103, CS1061, CS1615 after updating MSTest packages from 3.x to 4.x. USE FOR: Execute to ExecuteAsync, CallerInfo constructor on TestMethodAttribute, sealed custom attributes, ClassCleanupBehavior removal, TestContext.Properties Contains to ContainsKey, Assert.ThrowsException to ThrowsExactly, Assert.IsInstanceOfType out parameter removal, ExpectedExceptionAttribute removal, TestTimeout enum removal, [TestMethod("name")] to DisplayName syntax, TreatDiscoveryWarningsAsErrors, TestContext.TestName in ClassInitialize, MSTest.Sdk MTP changes, dropped TFMs (net6.0/net7.0 to net8.0+). DO NOT USE FOR: migrating from MSTest v1/v2 to v3 (use migrate-mstest-v1v2-to-v3 first), migrating between test frameworks, or general .NET upgrades.
Quick pragmatic detection-focused review of .NET test code for anti-patterns that undermine reliability and diagnostic value. Use when asked to audit test quality, investigate flaky or coupled tests, find duplication or magic values, or when tests pass but don't actually verify anything. Best for identifying and prioritizing issues in existing tests with severity-ranked findings and targeted remediation guidance. Catches assertion gaps, swallowed exceptions, always-true assertions, flakiness indicators, test coupling, over-mocking, naming issues, magic values, duplicate tests, and structural problems. Do NOT use for direct MSTest API rewrites or implementation-only fixes (for example swapped Assert.AreEqual argument order or converting `DynamicData` from `IEnumerable<object[]>` to `ValueTuple`) — use writing-mstest-tests instead. For a deep formal audit based on academic test smell taxonomy, use exp-test-smell-detection instead. Works with MSTest, xUnit, NUnit, and TUnit.
Best practices for writing new MSTest 3.x/4.x unit tests and implementing concrete fixes in existing MSTest code. Use when the user asks to write, create, implement, repair, or modernize tests (including fix-it prompts such as 'something seems off, fix issues'). Primary fit for direct code changes like correcting swapped Assert.AreEqual argument order, replacing outdated assertion patterns, and converting DynamicData from IEnumerable<object[]> to ValueTuple-based data sets. Covers modern assertions, data-driven tests, test lifecycle, MSTest.Sdk, sealed classes, Assert.Throws, DynamicData with ValueTuples, TestContext, and conditional execution. Do NOT use for broad test quality audits, flaky-test investigations, or test smell detection reports — use test-anti-patterns instead.
