Test Smell Detection

Audit test code with the academic taxonomy, code evidence, calibrated framework idioms, and fixes native to the codebase.

Scope

  • Audit only staged or named tests. Search the current workspace before asking for code; never claim a file is missing until that search finds no relevant test.
  • Read production code only when it changes a verdict.
  • For unfamiliar framework APIs, read the matching language file relative to the caller-provided or runtime-listed test-analysis-extensions catalog, not a skill invocation. If absent, use the framework and rules here and report the missing reference; do not search installation directories.
  • Read the complete catalog when the caller requests all 19 smells, asks for citations, or the code may contain a smell outside the high-signal set below. Do not load it for a narrow question that this file answers.
