What it does

Quality Engineering Zephyr Test Generation is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Generate Zephyr test cases from Jira stories: parse acceptance criteria and business rules, impact-analyze existing TCs (update vs. create new), and draft correctly named test cases. Use for AC-to-test generation; defer post-generation Jira linking and manual test-case quality review.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json`, `references/impact_analysis.md` and `references/smartbear-api.md`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Test generation. It works with Jira. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • AC-to-test generation
  • Defer post-generation Jira linking and manual test-case quality review

Example prompts

  • “/quality-engineering-zephyr-test-generation”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Analyze Requirements
  2. Impact Analysis (run before any TC creation)
  3. Draft Artifact
  4. Create in Zephyr (after explicit user approval)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Quality Engineering Zephyr Test Generation loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 590 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.4k

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.

Zephyr Test Generation Standards

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Workflow: Jira → Zephyr

  1. Analyze Requirements:
  • Extract: Summary, ACs, Platform per AC row, Market, Components.
  • Fetch Jira with ?expand=renderedFields — HTML authoritative for platform colors: #00B8D9 = Web · #36B37E = Mobile · #FF991F = Web+Mobile
  • See Actor/Permission Matrix for role/market logic.
  • HALT on ambiguous AC per quality-engineering-test-plan-authoring scenario expansion: ultra-short AC, no expected behavior, bundled ACs, contradiction. Ask before drafting.
  1. Impact Analysis (run before any TC creation)
  • Step — Direct Lookup: Call Get Issue Link Test Cases with Jira issue key (e.g., {PROJECT}-{ID}).
  • Step B — Supplemental: If Step 0, search by [Module] and [Screen] keywords + check sibling issue links.
  • See Discovery Protocol for full chain.
  • Map each AC to coverage status:
  • Covered → ask user: skip or update to current format?
  • Partial → always propose NEW TC.
  • Not Covered → always create NEW TC.
  1. Draft Artifact:
  • Delete any existing zephyr_test_plan.md before writing.
  • Follow 4-section format in TC Format Reference exactly.
  • After writing: read back file and print full content in chat so user can review without opening it.
  • Ask for: review approval, handling of Covered ACs, and Zephyr Folder ID.
  1. Create in Zephyr (after explicit user approval)
  • Create Test Case (with customFields included — no separate Update needed) → Create Test Case Steps → Create Test Case Issue Link
  • For updates to existing TCs: fetch current steps via Get Test Case Steps, show before/after diff, wait for explicit approval, then Update Test Case.
  • Param contract per SmartBear API Notes.

Platform Rules

AC rowAction
Single row [ WEB + MOBILE ]ONE TC, Platform = "Web and Mobile", no platform prefix in name
Two rows same behavior, different platformsTWO TCs with Web_ / Mobile_ prefix — never merge

Naming & Filing

  • Name: Prefix Web_ / Mobile_ only when platform-exclusive; omit prefix for Web and Mobile.
  • Folder: Use exact Folder ID provided by user or specified in Technical Impact.
Role Mapping Rule
  • CRITICAL: If Acceptance Criteria uses generic terms like "user", "buyer", or "customer" in ordering/checkout context, it MUST mapped to ALL purchasing roles: ["Client user", "Client admin", "Internal sales rep", "External sales rep"]. not default to Client user.
Show full SKILL.md (251 more words)Show less

Anti-Patterns

  • No prefix omission: TC name sent to Zephyr API must include Web_ or Mobile_ prefix for platform-exclusive TCs — copy verbatim from artifact draft; omit prefix only when Platform = "Web and Mobile".
  • No Draft skip: Always set status = Draft; never automatically approve.
  • No flat folderId: Use "folder": {"id": X} in all PUT payloads.
  • No WEB+MOBILE split: One AC row = one TC with Platform "Web and Mobile".
  • No platform merge: Two AC rows, different platforms = two separate TCs.
  • No silent update: Show before/after diff; wait for explicit approval.
  • No lookup skip: Always run Step direct link lookup before supplemental search.
  • No stale artifact: Delete existing zephyr_test_plan.md before each run.
  • No coverage skip: Coverage Analysis table must open every artifact.
  • No ghost update: Update Zephyr TC whenever matching code changes.
  • No vague steps: Use specific observable outcomes — e.g., "System works" → "Banner 'Success' is visible".
  • No invented expected result: cite the AC or business rule, or tag ASSUMED and surface it for review.
  • No rephrased negatives: N and E scenarios must change a precondition or input, not the wording.
  • No generation on ambiguous AC: HALT and ask; a convincing TC must not hide a missing requirement.

Coverage wording

  • During impact analysis, map each AC to Covered, Partial, or Not Covered and check for duplicate test cases before drafting new ones.

Canonical response anchors

When this skill applies, preserve the following domain terminology or equivalent concrete examples in the answer when relevant:

  • duplicate

  • impact analysis

  • no platform prefix

  • separate

  • Additional task-grounded exact anchors: Issue Link
