Swift Testing patterns — structs over classes, async confirmations, parameterized tests, exit tests, attachments, common agent mistakes. Use when writing, reviewing, or migrating Swift Testing code.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

7 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈3

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 4

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Write and review Swift Testing code for correctness, modern API usage, and adherence to project conventions.

    line 14
  2. Distinctive:

    Do not rewrite existing XCTest to Swift Testing unless requested.

    line 20
  3. Very specific:

    Ensure tests follow core conventions using references/core-rules.md.

    line 24
  4. Very specific:

    Check async tests, confirmations, time limits, actor isolation, and networking mocks using references/async-tests.md.

    line 26
  5. Very specific:

    Ensure new features like raw identifiers, exit tests, and attachments are used correctly using references/new-features.md.

    line 27
  6. Very specific:

    If migrating from XCTest, follow references/migrating-from-xctest.md.

    line 28
  7. Distinctive:

    If doing partial work, load only the relevant reference files.

    line 30

≈ “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.

Swift Testing Patterns

Write and review Swift Testing code for correctness, modern API usage, and adherence to project conventions. Report only genuine problems — do not nitpick or invent issues.

Core Instructions

  • Target Swift 6.2 or later, using modern Swift concurrency.
  • Swift Testing does not support UI tests — XCTest must be used there.
  • Do not rewrite existing XCTest to Swift Testing unless requested.

Review Process

  1. Ensure tests follow core conventions using references/core-rules.md.
  2. Validate structure, assertions, dependency injection, and best practices using references/writing-better-tests.md.
  3. Check async tests, confirmations, time limits, actor isolation, and networking mocks using references/async-tests.md.
  4. Ensure new features like raw identifiers, exit tests, and attachments are used correctly using references/new-features.md.
  5. If migrating from XCTest, follow references/migrating-from-xctest.md.

If doing partial work, load only the relevant reference files.

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.
