Testing Bundle-Plugins

Overview

Dynamic verification of a bundle-plugin project: install it locally, confirm components are discoverable, validate hooks fire correctly, and run cross-platform smoke tests. Complements bundles-forge:auditing (static analysis) with runtime validation.

Core principle: Audit tells you if the structure is correct; testing tells you if it actually works.

Skill type: Flexible — adapt the test scope based on target platforms and project maturity.

Announce at start: "I'm using the testing skill to verify this plugin works correctly."

Step 1: Resolve Input & Detect Scope

Input Normalization

The target must be a local bundle-plugin project (has package.json + skills/). Remote URLs and archives are not supported — testing requires a local working directory.
