absolute-deflake
From the author
Flaky test fixes: detect nondeterministic tests empirically (repeat/shuffle/parallel runs), diagnose the root cause, fix it — never retry/skip/sleep — and verify across many randomized runs. Triggers on "absolute deflake", "fix flaky tests", "CI is flaky", "this test fails randomly/intermittently".

- Flaky Test QuarantinePramodDutta/qaskillsDetect, quarantine, and systematically fix flaky tests with automated retry analysis, root cause categorization, and CI pipeline integration for test reliabilityTesting★ 240
- fixing-flaky-testsamplifthq/openmeldGuides an agent through reproducing, root-causing, fixing, and validating flaky tests in the PostHog monorepo. Use when a test fails intermittently in CI but passes on rerun or locally, when `hogli ci:insights` or the debugging-ci-failures skill classifies a failure as a flaky test, when given a GitHub Actions URL for a flaky job, when asked to check Trunk Flaky Tests for a test, PR, or master, or when asked to deflake, stabilize, or fix a flaky Jest, pytest, or Playwright test. Core discipline: reproduce locally before changing anything, fix the root cause (never mask it with sleeps, retries, or bigger timeouts), and prove the fix with an N-run validation loop sized to the observed failure rate. Stabilizing is not the only valid outcome — the skill also gates whether the test should exist, so deleting a test that catches nothing real, or re-leveling one that flakes because of the level it runs at, are first-class endings.Testing★ 1.4K
- flaky-test-analysisnaodeng/awesome-qa-skillsUse this skill when you need to investigate intermittent test failures from run history and evidence; triggers include flaky test analysis.Testing★ 279
- vibe-flake-root-causeash1794/vibe-engineeringRefuses "flaky" as a diagnosis. Turns an intermittent failure into a reproduction by isolating it from the environment, naming the variable that controls it, forcing that variable, and measuring before and after with enough runs to count. Separates real defects from environment contention with evidence, and never retries to green or widens a threshold. Use when a test, performance check, or deploy step fails intermittently or passes on rerun.Testing★ 165
- testing-anti-patternsrohitg00/skillkitReviews test code to identify and fix common testing anti-patterns including flaky tests, over-mocking, brittle assertions, test interdependency, and hidden test logic. Flags bad patterns, explains the specific defect, and provides corrected implementations. Use when reviewing test code, debugging intermittent or unreliable test failures, or when the user mentions flaky tests, test smells, brittle tests, test isolation issues, mock overuse, slow tests, or test maintenance problems.Testing★ 1.6K
- debuganthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsStructured debugging session — reproduce, isolate, diagnose, and fix. Trigger with an error message or stack trace, "this works in staging but not prod", "something broke after the deploy", or when behavior diverges from expected and the cause isn't obvious.OfficialEngineering★ 32.5K
