Explains how to run and write tests for Handsontable's Walkontable rendering engine, which has its own Jasmine, Puppeteer and Jest pipelines apart from the main E2E tests.

  • Maintaining an existing Walkontable Jasmine spec
  • SKILL.md covers Separate test pipeline, Writing tests, What to cover and Common mistakes
  • Calls npm
  • Adding coverage for frozen overlays, viewport sizing or scroll sync

What it does

Walkontable follows the same freeze as the main suite. Its legacy specs in `src/3rdparty/walkontable/test/spec/` run with Jasmine and Puppeteer under a separate Rspack config through `npm run test:walkontable --prefix handsontable`, and `test:e2e` does not pick them up. Jest tests in `test/unit/` cover calculators, filters, renderers and utilities, and they run under the core `test:unit` command instead. New or flaky tests go to Playwright in `tests/e2e/walkontable/`, since a presence gate blocks a new `*.spec.js`.

Tests are organized by subsystem and rendering calls inside `it()` are awaited. Coverage should include frozen rows and columns across the 6 overlay types, viewport calculations with small, oversized and resized containers, horizontal and vertical scroll sync, and datasets of 10k+ rows filled with `forEach`. Listed mistakes include running these specs via `test:e2e` and clearing inline overflow through jQuery in this harness.

When your agent uses it

  • Maintaining an existing Walkontable Jasmine spec
  • Adding coverage for frozen overlays, viewport sizing or scroll sync
  • Working out which command runs which Walkontable tests

Example prompts

  • “Add a spec for frozen columns staying aligned during horizontal scroll in the Walkontable suite.”
  • “Which npm script runs the Walkontable unit tests, and which one runs the Jasmine specs?”
  • “Write a viewport test for a container taller than the data.”

Requirements

  • A checkout of the Handsontable repository

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 68b5e97. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Walkontable Rendering Engine Testing loads about 875 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 409 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~875

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 409 words (~875 tokens).
