Master end-to-end testing with Playwright and Cypress to build reliable test suites that catch bugs, improve confidence, and enable fast deployment.

  • Works in 2 steps: E2E Testing Fundamentals → Test Philosophy
  • Implementing E2E tests
  • SKILL.md covers When to Use This Skill, Core Concepts, Detailed patterns and worked… and Best Practices, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

E2E Testing Patterns is an agent skill from try-works/role-model. Master end-to-end testing with Playwright and Cypress to build reliable test suites that catch bugs, improve confidence, and enable fast deployment. Use when implementing E2E tests, debugging flaky tests, or establishing testing standards.

Its SKILL.md is about 990 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/details.md`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering End-to-end testing. It works with Cypress and Playwright. The repository describes itself as: role-model is a protocol for assigning the right model for the right job. Use local and cloud AI together, or route between several cloud providers.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementing E2E tests
  • Debugging flaky tests
  • Establishing testing standards

Example prompts

  • “/e2e-testing-patterns”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. E2E Testing Fundamentals
  2. Test Philosophy

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit de1c04a. 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 (its code samples are typescript).

    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

E2E Testing Patterns loads about 990 tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 302 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~990
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.6k

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 302 words (~990 tokens).

“Build reliable, fast, and maintainable end-to-end test suites that provide confidence to ship code quickly and catch regressions before users do.”
