This skill enables Claude to execute visual regression tests using tools like Percy, Chromatic, and BackstopJS. It captures screenshots, compares them against baselines, and analyzes visual differences to identify unintended UI changes. Use this skill when the user requests visual testing, UI change verification, or regression testing for a web application or component. Trigger phrases include "visual test," "UI regression," "check visual changes," or "/visual-test".

This skill automates security vulnerability testing. It is triggered when the user requests security assessments, penetration tests, or vulnerability scans. The skill covers OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, authentication issues, and authorization flaws. Use this skill when the user mentions "security test", "vulnerability scan", "OWASP", "SQL injection", "XSS", "CSRF", "authentication", or "authorization" in the context of application or API testing.

This skill enables Claude to design, execute, and analyze performance tests using the performance-test-suite plugin. It is activated when the user requests load testing, stress testing, spike testing, or endurance testing, and when discussing performance metrics such as response time, throughput, and error rates. It identifies performance bottlenecks related to CPU, memory, database, or network issues. The plugin provides comprehensive reporting, including percentiles, graphs, and recommendations.

This skill enables automated penetration testing of web applications. It uses the penetration-tester plugin to identify vulnerabilities, including OWASP Top 10 threats, and suggests exploitation techniques. Use this skill when the user requests a "penetration test", "pentest", "vulnerability assessment", or asks to "exploit" a web application. It provides comprehensive reporting on identified security flaws.

This skill enables automated testing of mobile applications on iOS and Android platforms using frameworks like Appium, Detox, XCUITest, and Espresso. It generates end-to-end tests, sets up page object models, and handles platform-specific elements. Use this skill when the user requests mobile app testing, test automation for iOS or Android, or needs assistance with setting up device farms and simulators. The skill is triggered by terms like "mobile testing", "appium", "detox", "xcuitest", "espresso", "android test", "ios test".

Execute comprehensive load and stress testing to validate API performance and scalability. Use when validating API performance under load. Trigger with phrases like "load test the API", "stress test API", or "benchmark API performance".

This skill enables Claude to test load balancing strategies. It validates traffic distribution across backend servers, tests failover scenarios when servers become unavailable, verifies sticky sessions, and assesses health check functionality. Use this skill when the user asks to "test load balancer", "validate traffic distribution", "test failover", "verify sticky sessions", or "test health checks". It is specifically designed for testing load balancing configurations using the `load-balancer-tester` plugin.

This skill manages database testing by generating test data, wrapping tests in transactions, and validating database schemas. It is used to create robust and reliable database interactions. Claude uses this skill when the user requests database testing utilities, including test data generation, transaction management, schema validation, or migration testing. Trigger this skill by mentioning "database testing," "test data factories," "transaction rollback," "schema validation," or using the `/db-test` or `/dbt` commands.

Backtest crypto and traditional trading strategies against historical data. Calculates performance metrics (Sharpe, Sortino, max drawdown), generates equity curves, and optimizes strategy parameters. Use when user wants to test a trading strategy, validate signals, or compare approaches. Trigger with phrases like "backtest strategy", "test trading strategy", "historical performance", "simulate trades", "optimize parameters", or "validate signals".

Api Testing Helper - Auto-activating skill for API Development. Triggers on: api testing helper, api testing helper Part of the API Development skill category.

This skill automates API endpoint testing, including request generation, validation, and comprehensive test coverage for REST and GraphQL APIs. It is used when the user requests API testing, contract testing, or validation against OpenAPI specifications. The skill analyzes API endpoints and generates test suites covering CRUD operations, authentication flows, and security aspects. It also validates response status codes, headers, and body structure. Use this skill when the user mentions "API testing", "REST API tests", "GraphQL API tests", "contract tests", or "OpenAPI validation".

Creates an integration testing plan for .NET data access artifacts during Oracle-to-PostgreSQL database migrations. Analyzes a single project to identify repositories, DAOs, and service layers that interact with the database, then produces a structured testing plan. Use when planning integration test coverage for a migrated project, identifying which data access methods need tests, or preparing for Oracle-to-PostgreSQL migration validation.
