How does this fit into the PRISM methodology?

It supports the 'Intentional' and 'Maintainable' pillars of PRISM by ensuring development only happens in response to a defined, verifiable requirement or failure.

Can non-developers use this skill?

Yes, it is designed to help support agents and QA professionals capture technical evidence and steps that developers need to fix issues without requiring the agent to write code.

Does this skill write executable test code?

It generates a detailed test specification and pseudocode that acts as a blueprint. Developers or QA engineers then use this to implement the actual test in their specific framework.

What is the primary purpose of the create-failing-test skill?

It helps teams document reproducible failing test cases to ensure a test-first development approach and provide clear, actionable bug reports for developers.

Security & Testing

Generates comprehensive failing test specifications and reproduction steps to drive Test-Driven Development and bug resolution.

About

The create-failing-test skill implements a rigorous TDD workflow by guiding users through the creation of detailed, reproducible test specifications. It streamlines the handoff between support, QA, and development teams by documenting exact reproduction steps, element selectors, and environmental preconditions. By formalizing the 'failing state' before implementation begins, it ensures that every feature and bug fix is driven by clear acceptance criteria, leading to more resilient and maintainable software architectures within the PRISM™ methodology.

Key Features

Step-by-step reproduction documentation with element selectors
Automated handoff package creation for Dev and QA teams
QA-ready pseudocode for regression test implementation
Standardized Markdown test specification generation
Environment and data precondition mapping
1 GitHub stars

Use Cases

Creating standardized regression test templates for QA automation pipelines
Documenting customer-reported bugs with exact reproduction steps for developers
Defining technical acceptance criteria for new features prior to implementation
