From rshankras-claude-code-apple-skills
Supports TDD workflows including characterization tests, bug fixes, refactoring guards, test contracts, snapshot tests, and infrastructure for iOS/macOS Swift apps.
npx claudepluginhub joshuarweaver/cascade-code-languages-misc-1 --plugin rshankras-claude-code-apple-skillsThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
Test-driven development workflows and testing infrastructure for Apple platform apps. Works with both new and existing codebases.
Creates isolated Git worktrees for feature branches with prioritized directory selection, gitignore safety checks, auto project setup for Node/Python/Rust/Go, and baseline verification.
Executes implementation plans in current session by dispatching fresh subagents per independent task, with two-stage reviews: spec compliance then code quality.
Dispatches parallel agents to independently tackle 2+ tasks like separate test failures or subsystems without shared state or dependencies.
Test-driven development workflows and testing infrastructure for Apple platform apps. Works with both new and existing codebases.
Use this skill when the user:
characterization-test-generator/ Capture current behavior of existing code before refactoring. Generates tests that document what code actually does (not what it should do), giving you a safety net for AI-assisted refactoring.
tdd-bug-fix/ Reproduce-first bug fix workflow. Write a failing test that demonstrates the bug, then fix it. Ensures the bug never regresses — critical when AI generates fixes.
tdd-refactor-guard/ Pre-refactor safety checklist. Verifies test coverage exists before allowing AI to touch existing code. Prevents the "refactor without a safety net" problem.
tdd-feature/ Red-green-refactor scaffold for new features. Generates the failing test first, then guides implementation to make it pass, then refactors. The core TDD workflow.
test-contract/ Protocol/interface test suites. Define the contract (e.g., "any DataStore must handle empty state, single item, 100 items, and errors"), and it generates a test suite any implementation must pass.
snapshot-test-setup/ SwiftUI visual regression testing using swift-snapshot-testing. Generates snapshot test boilerplate, configuration, and CI integration.
test-data-factory/ Test fixture factories for your models. Makes writing tests faster by eliminating boilerplate data setup. Supports Builder pattern and static factory methods.
integration-test-scaffold/ Cross-module test harness with mock servers, in-memory stores, and test configuration. For testing networking + persistence + business logic together.
The generators/test-generator/ skill generates test boilerplate (unit, integration, UI tests). These testing skills are complementary — they focus on workflows and methodology (TDD cycle, characterization testing, contracts) rather than just test file generation.
