SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the friction of initializing automated testing for a game project by detecting the configured engine and creating a consistent test directory layout and CI workflow so teams don't delay writing tests.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Engine Detection: Reads .claude/docs/technical-preferences.md to determine whether the project uses Godot, Unity, or Unreal and tailors files accordingly.
  • Test Scaffolding: Creates tests/, unit/, integration/, smoke/, evidence/, example runner files, and a tests/README.md to standardize test structure.
  • CI Integration: Adds a .github/workflows/tests.yml configured per engine to run tests on pushes and pull requests; respects existing files and only creates missing artifacts unless forced.
  • Use Case: Initialize test infrastructure during Technical Setup to ensure CI runs and test conventions are in place before the first sprint.

Quick Start

Run the test-setup skill once during Technical Setup to detect the engine and create tests/, engine-specific runner files, and a GitHub Actions workflow, adding the force argument to regenerate missing files without overwriting existing ones.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up automated testing and CI for a Godot or Unity game project?▼

Scaffolding automated testing creates tests directories and a GitHub Actions CI workflow tailored to Godot, Unity, or Unreal. It generates unit, integration, smoke, and evidence folders with engine-specific runner files that execute on pushes and pull requests.

What's the best way to generate unit and integration test directories for Unreal Engine?▼

Generating test directories involves scaffolding standardized unit, integration, smoke, and evidence folders with engine-specific runner files and README guidance. This ensures consistent test conventions are established for Unreal projects before development begins.

Does the test scaffolding work with existing GitHub Actions workflows?▼

The test scaffolding respects existing files and only creates missing artifacts unless the force argument is provided. This prevents accidental overwrites of your current GitHub Actions workflows or engine-specific runner configurations.

Do I need an engine preference configured to scaffold CI tests?▼

Yes, an Engine value must be specified in .claude/docs/technical-preferences.md. The scaffolding reads this file to detect whether to generate test runners and GitHub Actions workflows for Godot, Unity, or Unreal.

Can I add a GitHub Actions workflow to run smoke tests on pull requests?▼

Yes, scaffolding adds a .github/workflows/tests.yml file configured per engine to run unit, integration, and smoke tests on pushes and pull requests. This ensures CI validation occurs automatically on code changes.

When should I not use automated test scaffolding for my game engine project?▼

You should not use automated test scaffolding if your project lacks an Engine value in .claude/docs/technical-preferences.md or if you want to avoid generating placeholder files and README guidance that might conflict with existing test conventions.
