​
Testing Hooks

Test Runner Hook

Automatically run tests before commitsBehavior:
  • Runs before each commit (pre-commit hook)
  • Executes tests for changed files
  • Blocks commit if tests fail
  • Shows test results and failures
Configuration:
  • Run all tests or only affected tests
  • Set timeout limits
  • Configure coverage thresholds
npx claude-code-templates@latest --hook testing/test-runner
Example:
git commit -m "Add user service"

# Running tests for changed files...
# ✓ user.service.test.ts (5 tests)
# ✓ auth.service.test.ts (8 tests)
# 
# 13 tests passed
# Coverage: 87%
# Commit successful

Unit Tests (70%): Fast, isolated tests for individual functions/methods Integration Tests (20%): Test module interactions and API endpoints E2E Tests (10%): Test complete user workflows through the UI

​
Test-Driven Development (TDD)

# 1. Write failing test
@test-generator Generate test for user registration validation

# 2. Implement feature
@backend-developer Implement user registration

# 3. Run tests
/test-coverage

# 4. Refactor
@code-architect Refactor user registration for better design

​
Testing Workflows

​
Complete Testing Setup

# 1. Install testing tools
npx claude-code-templates@latest \
  --agent test-generator \
  --command setup-testing \
  --command e2e-setup \
  --hook testing/test-runner

# 2. Configure testing infrastructure
/setup-testing
/e2e-setup playwright

# 3. Generate tests
@test-generator Generate tests for existing codebase with 80% coverage

# 4. Run tests
npm test

# 5. Check coverage
/test-coverage

​
Feature Development with Tests

# 1. Write test first (TDD)
@test-generator Generate tests for new payment processing feature

# 2. Implement feature
@backend-developer Implement payment processing

# 3. Run tests
npm test

# 4. Verify coverage
/test-coverage src/services/payment.service.ts --threshold 85

# 5. Add E2E tests
@test-generator Generate E2E tests for payment flow

​
CI/CD Testing Pipeline

# Install tools
npx claude-code-templates@latest \
  --command setup-testing \
  --command test-coverage

# Create GitHub Actions workflow
@devops-engineer Set up testing workflow:
- Run unit tests on PR
- Run integration tests on merge to main
- Run E2E tests before deploy
- Fail if coverage < 80%
- Upload coverage reports

​
Best Practices

​
1. Comprehensive Coverage

# Aim for 80%+ coverage
/test-coverage --threshold 80

# Focus on critical paths
@test-generator Prioritize tests for:
- Authentication and authorization
- Payment processing
- Data validation
- Error handling

​
2. Test Independence

# Each test should be independent
@test-generator Generate tests that:
- Don't rely on execution order
- Use test fixtures for setup
- Clean up after themselves
- Mock external dependencies

​
3. Fast Feedback

# Keep tests fast
@test-generator:
- Unit tests: < 100ms each
- Integration tests: < 1s each
- E2E tests: < 30s each

# Run tests in parallel
/setup-testing --parallel

​
4. Meaningful Tests

# Test behavior, not implementation
@test-generator Write tests that:
- Test user-facing behavior
- Verify business logic
- Check error scenarios
- Don't test implementation details

​
Real-World Examples

​
Example 1: API Testing

# Install testing tools
npx claude-code-templates@latest \
  --agent test-generator \
  --command setup-testing

# Generate API tests
@test-generator Generate tests for REST API:
- GET /users (list users)
- POST /users (create user)
- PUT /users/:id (update user)
- DELETE /users/:id (delete user)

Include:
- Happy path tests
- Validation errors
- Authentication checks
- Authorization checks

​
Example 2: Frontend Component Testing

# Install tools
npx claude-code-templates@latest \
  --agent test-generator \
  --command setup-testing

# Generate component tests
@test-generator Generate React tests for LoginForm component:
- Renders correctly
- Validates email format
- Validates password length
- Shows loading state
- Handles login success
- Handles login errors
- Disables submit when invalid

​
Example 3: E2E Testing

1. User adds product to cart
2. User proceeds to checkout
3. User enters shipping info
4. User enters payment info
5. User confirms order
6. User sees confirmation page

Include error scenarios:
- Invalid credit card
- Out of stock items
- Network errors

​
Example 4: Load Testing

- Duration: 5 minutes
- Ramp-up: 1 minute
- Endpoints: /api/products, /api/users
- Success criteria: p95 < 200ms, errors < 1%
