Generate a new recorded integration test

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

8 rules. About 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈5

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 3

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common

  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    If PowerShell is not installed, stop and ask the user to install it first using PowerShell installation instructions.

    line 20
  2. Very specific:

    Use the signature async fn ${input:testName}(ctx: TestContext) -> Result<()>.

    line 35
  3. Distinctive:

    Start each test with:

    line 36
  4. Very specific:

    Use sdk/keyvault/azure_security_keyvault_secrets/tests/secret_client.rs as the example for function signatures, TestContext, and required …

    line 41
  5. Distinctive:

    Prefer asserting on returned models or observable state instead of only checking success.

    line 43
  6. Distinctive:

    Run playback to make sure tests were properly recorded:

    line 54
  7. Very specific:

    After recording and playback succeeds, publish updated recordings only if test-proxy is already installed and available:

    line 60
  8. Distinctive:

    Remove provisioned test resources using the full script path when they are no longer needed:

    line 68

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Generate a new recorded integration test

You will generate one or more recorded integration tests under the sdk/{service-directory}/{crate-name}/tests directory in ${input:testFile:test_file}.rs where:

  • {repo-root} is the root directory containing Cargo.toml.
  • {service-directory} is the directory name under sdk for the current ${file} e.g., keyvault.
  • {crate-name} is the crate directory name under sdk/{service-directory} for the current ${file} e.g., azure_security_keyvault_secrets.

Set up

These instructions only need to be done once. If changes described are already present, do not make the changes again.

  • Recorded tests must always be integration tests under the sdk/{service-directory}/{crate-name}/tests directory. Do not add recorded tests to src/, examples/, or README.md.
  • If PowerShell is not installed, stop and ask the user to install it first using PowerShell installation instructions.
  • Provision test resources using the full script path:

    {repo-root}/eng/common/TestResources/New-TestResources.ps1 -ServiceDirectory {service-directory}
  • To run recorded tests, rely on the existing test infrastructure. Test Proxy is acquired automatically for test runs when needed, but not for test-proxy push -a sdk/{service-directory}/assets.json.
  • For manual Test Proxy usage or asset publishing, see CONTRIBUTING.md and the Test Proxy documentation.

Adding a new recorded test

For each new recorded test:

  • In sdk/{service-directory}/{crate-name}/tests/${input:testFile}.rs, add or update async integration tests attributed with #[recorded::test].
  • Use the signature async fn ${input:testName}(ctx: TestContext) -> Result<()>.
  • Start each test with:
    • let recording = ctx.recording();
    • let mut options = {Client}Options::default();
    • recording.instrument(&mut options.client_options);
  • Construct clients with recording.var("{ENV_VAR}", None).as_str(), recording.credential(), and Some(options).
  • Use sdk/keyvault/azure_security_keyvault_secrets/tests/secret_client.rs as the example for function signatures, TestContext, and required ClientOptions instrumentation.
  • Generate one test per client method or scenario the user wants to cover. If multiple methods share setup and belong together, keep them in the same integration test file as separate #[recorded::test] functions.
  • Prefer asserting on returned models or observable state instead of only checking success.
  • Reuse existing crate patterns for imports, helper types, resource naming, and environment variables.

Recording and playback

  • Record or update sessions against live resources:

    AZURE_TEST_MODE=record cargo test -p {crate-name} --test ${input:testFile}
  • Run playback to make sure tests were properly recorded:

    cargo test -p {crate-name} --test ${input:testFile}
  • After recording and playback succeeds, publish updated recordings only if test-proxy is already installed and available:

    test-proxy push -a sdk/{service-directory}/assets.json

Tear down

  • Remove provisioned test resources using the full script path when they are no longer needed:

    {repo-root}/eng/common/TestResources/Remove-TestResources.ps1 -ServiceDirectory {service-directory}

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
