System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures that code changes affecting service-dependent components are tested against actual local services, preventing bugs that would otherwise only be discovered in CI.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mandatory Integration Testing: Enforces testing against real databases, caches, and queues, not just mocks.
  • Service Dependency Identification: Helps identify which services your changes interact with.
  • Artifact Requirement: Requires posting local testing evidence to the issue before PR creation.
  • Use Case: When modifying database models, you must run integration tests against a live PostgreSQL instance to catch schema or constraint violations that mocks would miss.

Quick Start

Ensure all required local services are running and then execute your integration test suite.
