Review Tests Helpers is an agent skill from hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Review Terraform AWS Provider test helpers: Exists/Destroy check functions, exportstest.go wiring, create.Error wrapping, data source tests, list resource tests (querycheck + Terraform version floor), and unit tests. Use when reviewing a PR that changes check helpers or data-source/list/unit tests in internal/service//test.go.
Its SKILL.md is about 990 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Testing & QA, covering Infrastructure as code, Unit testing and Integration testing. It works with Terraform and Amazon Web Services. The repository describes itself as: The AWS Provider enables Terraform to manage AWS resources. The licence is MPL-2.0.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f4a1d21. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are go).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Review Tests Helpers loads about 994 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 89 tokens; SKILL.md has 321 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

testAccCheck<Resource>Exists should:
s.RootModule().Resources[name].rs.Primary.ID != "".acctest.ProviderMeta(ctx, t).<Service>Client(ctx) for the client — never construct a fresh client.tf<svc>.Find<Name>ByID(ctx, conn, ...).testAccCheck<Resource>Destroy should:
rs.Type != "aws_<svc>_<thing>".retry.NotFound(err) as success (return nil).errs.IsA[*awstypes.<NotFoundException>] rather than type assertions if it inspects errors directly.Wrap real failures with create.Error(names.<Service>, create.ErrActionCheckingExistence|ErrActionCheckingDestroyed, tf<svc>.ResName<Name>, id, err) rather than fmt.Errorf / errors.New.
Test files reach into the package via a sibling exports_test.go:
package <svc>
var (
Resource<Name> = new<Name>Resource // Framework
// or: Resource<Name> = resource<Name> // SDKv2
Find<Name>ByID = find<Name>ByID
)Flag PRs that export production identifiers (capitalize the real find<Name>ByID) instead of using exports_test.go, or reach into the package via build tags or internal/ traversal hacks. The package is imported in tests as tf<svc> "github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/internal/service/<svc>".
Data source tests follow the resource conventions with these differences:
dataSourceName := "data.aws_<svc>_<thing>.test".resource.TestCheckResourceAttrPair(dataSourceName, attr, resourceName, attr) over hard-coded values when the data source mirrors a resource._disappears test.CheckDestroy is still required when the test creates a backing resource.List resources require three scenarios for parity:
_List_basic — basic listing._List_includeResource — with include_resource = true and full attribute checks._List_regionOverride — region override; requires acctest.PreCheckMultipleRegion(t, 2).List resource tests use static testdata, not inline configs:
ConfigDirectory: config.StaticDirectory("testdata/<Resource>/list_<scenario>/"),
ConfigVariables: config.Variables{ acctest.CtRName: config.StringVariable(rName), ... },A separate Step with Query: true exercises the list operation. Identity assertions use tfstatecheck.Identity() / identity.GetIdentity(resourceName) and the tfquerycheck.* helpers under internal/acctest/querycheck.
List resource tests also require a Terraform version floor (currently 1.14):
TerraformVersionChecks: []tfversion.TerraformVersionCheck{
tfversion.SkipBelow(tfversion.Version1_14_0),
},Unit tests are for logic that doesn't touch AWS — parsers, custom flatteners/expanders, ID composition, validators. They:
t.Parallel() at top and inside subtests).t.Run(tc.TestName, ...).acctest.Context, acctest.PreCheck, or instantiate an AWS client.Flag unit tests added for trivial pass-through flatteners/expanders — they're noise. Flag acceptance-style tests mis-named without the TestAcc prefix.
