Reviews test code to identify and fix common testing anti-patterns including flaky tests, over-mocking, brittle assertions, test interdependency, and hidden test logic. Flags bad patterns, explains the specific defect, and provides corrected implementations. Use when reviewing test code, debugging intermittent or unreliable test failures, or when the user mentions flaky tests, test smells, brittle tests, test isolation issues, mock overuse, slow tests, or test maintenance problems.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'testing-anti-patterns' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'testing-anti-patterns' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named testing-anti-patterns already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/rohitg00/skillkit' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'd2e5c346f73325c326820efd3188dcf2b6eb704f' -- 'packages/core/src/methodology/packs/testing/anti-patterns' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'packages/core/src/methodology/packs/testing/anti-patterns' ~/.agents/skills/'testing-anti-patterns' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'testing-anti-patterns' ~/.claude/skills/'testing-anti-patterns' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
