About this skill

What it does. Reviews discovered test files, classes or suites, checks assertions, async handling, exceptions, flakiness, duplication, naming and resource hygiene, and verifies suspicious oracles against relevant production code. Produces a severity-ranked report with locations, concrete fixes, positive observations and adjacent coverage gaps.

When to use it. Use for diagnostic reviews of unreliable or low-quality tests across supported languages. It does not write tests, edit code, run tests, collect coverage, migrate frameworks or perform specialised gap, tagging, smell or CRAP analysis.
