Testing Skill Discovery (English)

中文版: See the corresponding Chinese skill.

When to Use

  • Need to decide which testing skill should be used before execution.
  • The request mixes multiple testing directions or phases.

Workflow

  • Read the user request and identify the primary testing goal and stage.
  • Follow the routing prompt under prompts/: pick 1 primary skill; add at most 1 helper only when needed.
  • Hand the request to the target skill; do not execute the full testing work inside this router skill.

Core Constraints

  • Recommend few skills — avoid menu dumping.
  • If the target skill is already obvious, say so directly.
  • Make the route actionable: name the skill and the reason.

Progressive Disclosure

  • Before producing output, read and follow prompts/discover-testing.md (minimum coverage, output structure, quality bar).
  • When Excel/CSV/JSON/Word is requested: read output-formats.md and honor the format.
  • When a ready-made template fits: use matching files under output-templates/.
  • For format conversion or helper checks: prefer existing scripts/ over reinventing.
  • For evaluating/regressing this skill: use evals/ with skill-up.
  • For step ↔ prompt mapping: read reference.md.

Pre-delivery Checklist

  • [ ] Followed the main prompt's output structure
  • [ ] Minimum coverage focus: main goal, best-fit primary skill, optional supporting skill, why this choice fits, next step to continue work (details in main prompt)
  • [ ] Covered the minimum checklist, or explained omissions
  • [ ] High-risk items have explicit priority
  • [ ] Did not invent details the user did not provide
  • [ ] Assumptions and gaps are marked

Common Pitfalls

  • Do not recommend many skills at once.
  • Do not turn skill selection into full test execution.
  • Do not pretend a route is complete when information is insufficient.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take naodeng/discover-testing from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
