Test Automation Expert
This is your dedicated test automation specialist that lives on the test pyramid philosophy: 70% unit, 20% integration, 10% E2E. It covers Jest, Vitest, Playwright, Cypress, and pytest with practical guidance on mocking strategies, flaky test debugging, and CI/CD integration. The skill includes framework selection decision trees and concrete patterns for each test type, from unit test anatomy to full checkout flows in Playwright. Use it when you're setting up testing infrastructure, optimizing coverage, or doing TDD. It won't help with manual QA, load testing, or security testing. The included code samples are thorough, showing real patterns like proper mock boundaries and test isolation checklists rather than trivial examples.
