SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the friction of setting up a consistent automated test framework and continuous integration pipeline by scaffolding the required directories, engine-specific runners, and a GitHub Actions workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Engine-aware test scaffolding: Detects the configured engine from technical preferences and generates the correct test runner and placeholders for that engine.
  • CI/CD workflow wiring: Creates a .github/workflows/tests.yml workflow to run the right tests on pushes and pull requests.
  • Non-destructive initialization: Creates only missing files while preserving any existing test infrastructure and respecting the force argument for regeneration without overwriting.

Quick Start

Run the skill to scaffold your test directories, engine-specific runner files, and the GitHub Actions workflow by executing: /test-setup.

Frequently Asked Questions about test-setup

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold unit and integration tests for my Godot, Unity, or Unreal project?▼

Scaffold engine-aware automated testing infrastructure by generating standardized test directories, engine-specific runners, and placeholder files configured for Godot, Unity, or Unreal environments.

Can I set up a GitHub Actions workflow to run tests automatically on pull requests?▼

Yes, continuous integration workflow wiring creates a .github/workflows/tests.yml file to run engine-specific unit, integration, and smoke tests automatically on pushes and pull requests.

What is the best way to initialize a CI/CD pipeline without overwriting existing test infrastructure?▼

Non-destructive initialization creates only missing test files and directories while preserving existing test infrastructure, ensuring current runners remain safe during pipeline scaffolding.

Does test scaffolding require a specific configuration file to detect the engine?▼

Yes, engine detection requires reading the configured engine setting from the .claude/docs/technical-preferences.md file to generate the correct engine-specific test runner.

How do I regenerate test directories and workflow files if my project setup changes?▼

Regenerate test directories and the GitHub Actions workflow by using a force flag, which overrides non-destructive initialization to rebuild the testing infrastructure.

Why does the test scaffolding process require approval before generating files?▼

The scaffolding process refuses to proceed without approval to ensure you explicitly authorize the creation of test directories, runner files, and smoke test seeds in your repository.
