# Test Modernizer

> Apple's guide for modernizing test suites: migrating XCTest to Swift Testing and restructuring existing Swift Testing tests around newer features. Use when asked to modernize, migrate, or convert tests; not for writing brand-new tests, running tests, or XCUI automation (which cannot migrate). (Content extracted from your local Xcode on install.)

# test-modernizer (stub)

> **Not yet extracted.** This is a stub. The real skill is Apple-authored
> content that ships inside Xcode; Apple's license doesn't permit
> redistributing it, so this kit extracts it from YOUR Xcode instead.
>
> To install the real content (requires Xcode 27+, ~5 seconds), run the
> extraction script that ships alongside these skills. Relative to this
> skill's own directory it is at:
>
>     ../apple-api-updates/scripts/extract-apple-skills.sh
>
> (In the Claude Code plugin layout it is also exposed at the plugin root
> as scripts/extract-apple-skills.sh. If apple-api-updates is not
> installed alongside, install it — the script ships inside it.)
>
> If you are an agent reading this: resolve this SKILL.md's path and run
> that script with your shell tool. Skill bodies are cached for the
> session and you cannot run /reload-plugins yourself (it's a user
> command), so after extracting: answer the current request by reading
> the extracted SKILL.md and its references/ directly from disk (plain
> markdown, fully usable), and ask the user to run /reload-plugins — or
> start a new session — so future invocations serve the real content.
