Testing & QA Agent Skills

Experimental (preview) Pester skill for migrating classic Should -Be (v5) assertion syntax to the new Should-* (v6) assertions (note the hyphen, no space), e.g. `Should -Be` -> `Should-Be`, `Should -Not -Be` -> `Should-NotBe`. Tracks Pester 6, which is still a release candidate, so this guidance may change; verified against Pester 6.0.0-rc2. Use when converting Pester v5 assertions to Pester v6 Should-* operators, modernizing a Pester test suite, or when a user asks to migrate, convert, or rewrite `Should -...` calls in .Tests.ps1 / PowerShell files.

Creates an integration testing plan for .NET data access artifacts during Oracle-to-PostgreSQL database migrations. Analyzes a single project to identify repositories, DAOs, and service layers that interact with the database, then produces a structured testing plan. Use when planning integration test coverage for a migrated project, identifying which data access methods need tests, or preparing for Oracle-to-PostgreSQL migration validation.

Power BI report visualization design prompt for creating effective, user-friendly, and accessible reports with optimal chart selection and layout design.

Guides Qdrant query latency optimization. Use when someone asks 'search is slow', 'how to reduce latency', 'p99 is too high', 'tail latency', 'single query too slow', 'how to make search faster', or 'latency spikes'.

Diagnoses and guides Qdrant horizontal scaling decisions. Use when someone asks 'vertical or horizontal?', 'how many nodes?', 'how many shards?', 'how to add nodes', 'resharding', 'data doesn't fit', or 'need more capacity'. Also use when data growth outpaces current deployment.

Guides Qdrant vertical scaling decisions. Use when someone asks 'how to scale up a node', 'need more RAM', 'upgrade node size', 'vertical scaling', 'resize cluster', 'scale up vs scale out', or when memory/CPU is insufficient on current nodes. Also use when someone wants to avoid the complexity of horizontal scaling.

Diagnoses and improves Qdrant search relevance. Use when someone reports 'search results are bad', 'wrong results', 'low precision', 'low recall', 'irrelevant matches', 'missing expected results', or asks 'how to improve search quality?', 'which embedding model?', 'should I use hybrid search?', 'should I use reranking?'. Also use when search quality degrades after quantization, model change, or data growth.

Provides exact migration patterns for React string refs (ref="name" + this.refs.name) to React.createRef() in class components. Use this skill whenever migrating string ref usage - including single element refs, multiple refs in a component, refs in lists, callback refs, and refs passed to child components. Always use this skill before writing any ref migration code - the multiple-refs-in-list pattern is particularly tricky and this skill prevents the most common mistakes. Use it for React 18.3.1 migration (string refs warn) and React 19 migration (string refs removed).

Intelligent README.md generation prompt that analyzes project documentation structure and creates comprehensive repository documentation. Scans .github/copilot directory files and copilot-instructions.md to extract project information, technology stack, architecture, development workflow, coding standards, and testing approaches while generating well-structured markdown documentation with proper formatting, cross-references, and developer-focused content.

Install npm packages in a Docker sandbox environment. Use this skill whenever you need to install, reinstall, or update node_modules inside a container where the workspace is mounted via virtiofs. Native binaries (esbuild, lightningcss, rollup) crash on virtiofs, so packages must be installed on the local ext4 filesystem and symlinked back.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "test this website", "run exploratory testing", "check for accessibility issues", "verify the login flow works", "find bugs on this page", or requests automated QA testing. Triggers on web application testing scenarios including smoke tests, accessibility audits, e-commerce flows, and user flow validation using ScoutQA CLI. Use this skill proactively after implementing web application features to verify they work correctly.

Suggest relevant GitHub Copilot Custom Agents files from the awesome-copilot repository based on current repository context and chat history, avoiding duplicates with existing custom agents in this repository, and identifying outdated agents that need updates.

Wire CommunityToolkit.Mvvm ViewModels into Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection. Covers the .NET Generic Host composition root, constructor injection, service lifetimes (Singleton / Transient / Scoped), IMessenger registration, resolving ViewModels in Views, keyed services, testing seams, and the legacy Ioc.Default escape hatch. Use across WPF, WinUI 3, .NET MAUI, Uno, and Avalonia.

CommunityToolkit.Mvvm (the MVVM Toolkit) core: source generators ([ObservableProperty], [RelayCommand], [NotifyPropertyChangedFor], [NotifyCanExecuteChangedFor], [NotifyDataErrorInfo]), base classes (ObservableObject / ObservableValidator / ObservableRecipient), commands (RelayCommand / AsyncRelayCommand), and validation. Companion skills: mvvm-toolkit-messenger for pub/sub, mvvm-toolkit-di for Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection wiring. Works across WPF, WinUI 3, MAUI, Uno, and Avalonia.

Make any repo AI-ready — analyzes your codebase and generates AGENTS.md, copilot-instructions.md, CI workflows, issue templates, and more. Mines your PR review patterns and creates files customized to your stack. USE THIS SKILL when the user asks to "make this repo ai-ready", "set up AI config", or "prepare this repo for AI contributions".

Autonomous iterative experimentation loop for any programming task. Guides the user through defining goals, measurable metrics, and scope constraints, then runs an autonomous loop of code changes, testing, measuring, and keeping/discarding results. Inspired by Karpathy's autoresearch. USE FOR: autonomous improvement, iterative optimization, experiment loop, auto research, performance tuning, automated experimentation, hill climbing, try things automatically, optimize code, run experiments, autonomous coding loop. DO NOT USE FOR: one-shot tasks, simple bug fixes, code review, or tasks without a measurable metric.

Issue Planning and Automation prompt that generates comprehensive project plans with Epic > Feature > Story/Enabler > Test hierarchy, dependencies, priorities, and automated tracking.

Test Planning and Quality Assurance prompt that generates comprehensive test strategies, task breakdowns, and quality validation plans for GitHub projects.

Generate a map of all files relevant to a task before making changes

Creates integration test cases for .NET data access artifacts during Oracle-to-PostgreSQL database migrations. Generates DB-agnostic xUnit tests with deterministic seed data that validate behavior consistency across both database systems. Use when creating integration tests for a migrated project, generating test coverage for data access layers, or writing Oracle-to-PostgreSQL migration validation tests.

Generate draw.io diagrams as .drawio files and export to PNG/SVG/PDF with embedded XML

Activate this skill when a student provides study material (PDF or pasted notes) and a syllabus, and wants to prepare for an exam. Extracts key definitions, points, keywords, diagrams, exam-ready sentences, and practice questions strictly from the provided material.
