# Autonomous Testing Agent

## Overview

An AI-driven testing agent that auto-discovers, generates, executes, evaluates, and fixes tests for any project type. Inspired by the edubites autonomous test runner pattern, generalized for Claude Bootstrap + Maggy.

## Pipeline

```
Source Scan → Discover Gaps → Generate Tests → Execute → Evaluate → Report → Fix Loop
```

## Phase 1: Discover — What Needs Testing?

```
Auto-detect project type:
  Python    → scan for *.py files, extract public functions/classes
  TypeScript → scan for *.ts/*.tsx files, extract exports
  API       → scan FastAPI/Express routes, extract endpoints + methods
  Web       → scan React/Vue components, extract user flows

Map existing tests:
  Python    → pytest --collect-only
  TypeScript → vitest --list
  API       → scan tests/ for endpoint coverage

Compute coverage gaps:
  - Functions with 0 tests
  - API endpoints with 0 tests
  - Components with 0 tests
  - Branches with <80% coverage
```

## Phase 2: Generate — AI-Written Tests

```
For each uncovered function/endpoint/component:
  1. Read source code → understand inputs, outputs, edge cases
  2. Generate test scaffold using ~/bin/deepseek --pro
  3. Include: happy path, error cases, edge cases, auth checks
  4. Write to appropriate test directory

Model routing for generation:
  - Simple functions    → ~/bin/deepseek --flash (cheap, fast)
  - Complex logic       → ~/bin/deepseek --pro (thorough)
  - Auth/security tests → ~/bin/deepseek --pro (quality-critical)
```

## Phase 3: Execute — Run Everything

```bash
# Python
pytest -x --cov --cov-report=json

# TypeScript
npx vitest run --coverage

# E2E (if Playwright detected)
npx playwright test

# Parse results → structured TestRun { pass/fail, coverage, duration, failures[] }
```

## Phase 4: Evaluate — AI-Powered Assessment

```
For each test failure:
  1. Capture: test name, error message, stack trace, source code diff
  2. Classify failure:
     - TEST_BUG: test is wrong (outdated expectation, bad mock)
     - CODE_BUG: code is wrong (regression, edge case)
     - ENV_BUG: environment issue (missing dep, config)
  3. AI evaluation: ~/bin/deepseek --pro analyzes failure and classifies

For E2E/web tests:
  - Capture screenshots at failure points
  - ~/bin/gemini --flash evaluates visual state (multimodal)
```

## Phase 5: Fix — Autonomous Repair

```
TEST_BUG → regenerate test with corrected expectation
CODE_BUG → propose fix with ~/bin/deepseek --pro, apply, re-run
ENV_BUG → report to user with fix instructions

Auto-fix loop:
  while test_failures > 0 and attempts < 3:
    for each failure:
      classify → fix → re-run
    if fixed: record as "auto-fixed"
    if not: escalate to CLAUDE tier
```

## Phase 6: Report — Structured Output

```json
{
  "project": "my-app",
  "timestamp": "2026-05-16T12:00:00Z",
  "summary": {
    "tests_run": 247,
    "passed": 231,
    "failed": 12,
    "auto_fixed": 8,
    "needs_manual": 4,
    "coverage": 0.83
  },
  "gaps_found": 15,
  "tests_generated": 15,
  "next_actions": [
    "4 manual fixes needed in auth module",
    "Coverage gap: src/payment.py has 0 tests",
    "3 E2E flows untested: signup, checkout, profile-edit"
  ]
}
```

## Integration with Maggy

```
Maggy Dashboard → Testing tab shows:
  - Coverage trend over time
  - Auto-generated test count
  - Failure classification (TEST_BUG vs CODE_BUG)
  - "Generate tests for gaps" one-click button

Heartbeat job: auto-generate tests weekly for new untested code
Auto-review hook: triggers test generation after significant PR merges
```

## Usage

```bash
# Discover test gaps
maggy test discover

# Generate tests for all gaps
maggy test generate --all

# Generate tests for specific module
maggy test generate --module auth

# Run full test cycle (discover → generate → execute → fix → report)
maggy test autonomous

# Watch mode — auto-test on file changes
maggy test watch
```

## Configuration

```json
// ~/.claude/testing-config.json
{
  "auto_generate": true,
  "auto_fix": true,
  "max_fix_attempts": 3,
  "min_coverage": 0.8,
  "generate_model": "deepseek-pro",
  "evaluate_model": "gemini-flash",
  "fix_model": "deepseek-pro",
  "exclude_patterns": ["*/migrations/*", "*/node_modules/*"]
}
```

skill-development

Included

Comprehensive meta-skill for creating, managing, validating, auditing, and distributing Claude Code skills and slash commands (unified in v2.1.3+). Provides skill templates, creation workflows, validation patterns, audit checklists, naming conventions, YAML frontmatter guidance, progressive disclosure examples, and best practices lookup. Use when creating new skills, validating existing skills, auditing skill quality, understanding skill architecture, needing skill templates, learning about YAML frontmatter requirements, progressive disclosure patterns, tool restrictions (allowed-tools), skill composition, skill naming conventions, troubleshooting skill activation issues, creating custom slash commands, configuring command frontmatter, using command arguments ($ARGUMENTS, $1, $2), bash execution in commands, file references in commands, command namespacing, plugin commands, MCP slash commands, Skill tool configuration, or deciding between skills vs slash commands. Delegates to docs-management skill for official documentation.

reprompter

Included

Transform messy prompts into well-structured, effective prompts — single or multi-agent. Use when: "reprompt", "reprompt this", "clean up this prompt", "structure my prompt", rough text needing XML tags and best practices, "reprompter teams", "repromptception", "run with quality", "smart run", "smart agents", multi-agent tasks, audits, parallel work, anything going to agent teams. Don't use when: simple Q&A, pure chat, immediate execution-only tasks. See "Don't Use When" section for details. Outputs: Structured XML/Markdown prompt, quality score (before/after), optional team brief + per-agent sub-prompts, agent team output files. Success criteria: Single mode quality score ≥ 7/10; Repromptception per-agent prompt quality score 8+/10; all required sections present, actionable and specific.

adaptive-compaction

Included

Adaptive add-on policy and recovery layer that decides WHEN to compact, prune, snapshot, or fork -- replacing fixed-percent auto-compaction across Claude Code, Codex, and MCP-capable hosts. Trigger on auto-compact timing or damage: "when should I compact", "is it safe to compact now or start a fresh session", "auto-compact fires too early/mid-task", "switching to an unrelated task but the window still has space", "context rot", "answers get worse the longer the session runs", "the agent forgot the plan or my decisions after it summarized", "add a layer on top that manages context without changing the agent", raising autoCompactWindow to give the policy room, or installing/tuning a cross-tool compaction policy or PreCompact hook -- even when "compaction" is never said but the problem is context-window pressure or post-summarization memory loss. Do NOT use to summarize a conversation, build RAG, write a summarization prompt (decides WHEN not HOW), or answer max-context-length trivia.

AI Agentsscripts

agent-skill-creator

Included

Create cross-platform agent skills from workflow descriptions. Activates when users ask to create an agent, automate a repetitive workflow, create a custom skill, or need advanced agent creation. Triggers on phrases like create agent for, automate workflow, create skill for, every day I have to, daily I need to, turn process into agent, need to automate, create a cross-platform skill, validate this skill, export this skill, migrate this skill. Supports single skills, multi-agent suites, transcript processing, template-based creation, interactive configuration, cross-platform export, and spec validation.

AI Agentsscripts

llm-wiki

Included

Use when building or maintaining a persistent personal knowledge base (second brain) in Obsidian where an LLM incrementally ingests sources, updates entity/concept pages, maintains cross-references, and keeps a synthesis current. Triggers include "second brain", "Obsidian wiki", "personal knowledge management", "ingest this paper/article/book", "build a research wiki", "compound knowledge", "Memex", or whenever the user wants knowledge to accumulate across sessions instead of being re-derived by RAG on every query.
