What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps diagnose and fix tests that hang indefinitely, time out, or appear stuck during execution, preventing development blockers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Timeout Implementation: Adds a safety timeout to prevent tests from hanging forever.
  • Output Capture: Guides users to capture all test output for detailed analysis.
  • Root Cause Identification: Provides patterns to search for common causes like unimplemented features, deadlocks, or retry loops.
  • Use Case: When a critical integration test in your CI pipeline consistently hangs without failing, this skill provides a structured approach to find the underlying issue and unblock your development flow.

Quick Start

Add a #[timeout("30s")] attribute to your hanging test function.
