test-reliability
From the author
Runtime per-test healing with evidence: multi-attribute selector healing, environment-aware diagnosis, flake classification, quarantine management, and confidence-scored auto-repair. Goes beyond simple locator fallbacks to cover action-level healing, data healing, and observable repair workflows. Use when: "flaky test," "test stability," "self-healing locator," "broken locator recovery," "unreliable test," "quarantine flaky test." Not for: bulk regenerating selectors after a planned UI refactor — use selector-drift-recovery (this skill heals ONE test at runtime; that one rewrites many tests offline). Not for: classifying/clustering CI failures into bug reports — use ai-bug-triage. Related: playwright-automation, selector-drift-recovery, ci-cd-integration, qa-metrics, ai-bug-triage.

- 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
- test-suite-curationpetrkindlmann/qa-skillsAudit a whole regression suite and prune/restructure it with evidence: per-test coverage fingerprinting, AST near-duplicate clustering, CI-history mining for never-failing and flaky tests, prune decision rules (redundant/obsolete/low-value/keep), smoke/core/extended tiering by risk and defect-detection history, and a defensible "what we deleted and why" record. Deletion is destructive — quarantine and human sign-off are mandatory. Use when: "audit the test suite," "prune redundant tests," "find duplicate tests," "which tests can we delete," "restructure into smoke/core/extended," "is this test pulling its weight," "shrink the regression suite." Not for: Judging whether an individual test is WELL-WRITTEN (smells, assertions) — that is ai-qa-review. Healing one flaky test at runtime — that is test-reliability. Bulk selector regeneration after a UI refactor — that is selector-drift-recovery. Related: ai-qa-review, coverage-analysis, test-reliability, risk-based-testing, qa-project-context.Testing★ 208
- Flaky Test DoctorPramodDutta/qaskillsDiagnose flaky test failures from Playwright reports, traces, and rerun history. Classify each failure as product, test, environment, data, or unknown with cited evidence and a proposed fix. Never auto-modifies code without opt-in.Testing★ 240
- absolute-deflakemaddhruv/absoluteFlaky 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".Testing★ 223
- 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
