replica-test
Skill399 starsChanged 40 days agoMITView on GitHub
Clicks through every flow of an app clone and tests it for bugs: a test plan generated from the recon flows with happy paths and edge cases, Playwright end-to-end tests where possible, a browser click-through where not, and bug reports in a fixed format with severity, steps and evidence. Use when the user says "test my clone", "find bugs", "QA this", "click through everything", "write e2e tests", "does it work", or after /replica-build or /replica-backend.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
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
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 21
Test your clone, not the original: Never load test, fuzz, script or hammer the original app's servers.
- Very specific: line 44
Use roles and labels for selectors (getByRole('button', { name: 'Book' })), never CSS classes.
- Very specific: line 52
Add to every spec: fail on console errors, fail on any 5xx response, and an axe accessibility scan (@axe-core/playwright) on each screen.
- Very specific: line 64
Every bug goes in replica/bugs.md in the bug-report.md format: an ID, a severity, exact steps, expected, actual, evidence.
- Distinctive: line 74
Only report what you reproduced.
≈ “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.
Files
replica-test
Reads the flows in replica/recon.md. Writes replica/test-plan.md,
replica/bugs.md, and end-to-end tests in the project (e2e/). Templates in
this folder: test-plan.md, bug-report.md, e2e.example.spec.ts.
The rule
Test your clone, not the original. Never load test, fuzz, script or hammer the original app's servers. Using the original by hand, as a normal user, to see how it behaves is fine.
Step 1: the plan
For every flow F01, F02... in the recon map, write:
- Happy path: the steps, and what the user should see at the end.
- Edge cases that apply. Go down this list for every flow: empty input, very long input, emoji and accents, two tabs at once, double click on submit, back button mid-flow, refresh mid-flow, slow network, offline, expired session, second user's data (must be invisible), time zones and daylight saving, mobile width, keyboard only, screen reader labels.
- Negative cases: wrong password, card declined (Stripe test card
4000 0000 0000 0002), permission denied, deleted record.
Number every case: F01-H1, F01-E3, F01-N2.
Step 2: automate what you can
Playwright, one spec per flow, against the local dev server with seed data.
Use roles and labels for selectors (getByRole('button', { name: 'Book' })),
never CSS classes. See e2e.example.spec.ts.
npm i -D @playwright/test && npx playwright install chromium
npx playwright testAdd to every spec: fail on console errors, fail on any 5xx response, and an
axe accessibility scan (@axe-core/playwright) on each screen.
Step 3: click through the rest
What cannot be automated (emails arriving, OAuth with real providers, payments end to end, visual glitches) gets a manual pass. If a browser tool is available, drive the local clone with it and screenshot each step. Otherwise give the user the checklist and wait for answers.
Step 4: report bugs
Every bug goes in replica/bugs.md in the bug-report.md format: an ID, a
severity, exact steps, expected, actual, evidence. Severity:
| means | |
| S1 | data loss, security hole, payments wrong, core flow blocked |
| S2 | a feature broken, no workaround |
| S3 | broken with a workaround, or visibly wrong |
| S4 | cosmetic |
Only report what you reproduced. "Might be an issue" goes in a separate "to check" list.
Step 5: fix loop
Fix S1 and S2 first. For every fix: write the failing test first, fix, watch
it pass, keep the test. Re-run the whole suite after each batch. Update
bugs.md with the commit that fixed each one.
Output
test-plan.md, the specs, bugs.md, and a summary: cases run, passed,
failed, bugs by severity, fixed so far. Ship nothing with an open S1. Next:
/replica-diff.
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
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.
