Jeremylongshore Claude Code Plugins Plus Skills Smoke Test Runner

Overview

This skill enables Claude to quickly verify the critical functionality of an application by running a suite of smoke tests. It provides a fast pass/fail assessment, helping to identify potential issues early in the deployment process.

How It Works

1. Initiate Smoke Test: The user requests a smoke test using the /smoke-test or /st command.
2. Execute Test Suite: The skill executes the pre-defined suite of smoke tests, covering system health, authentication, core features, and external integrations.
3. Report Results: The skill provides a summary of the test results, indicating whether the tests passed or failed.

When to Use This Skill

This skill activates when you need to:

• Verify application functionality after a deployment.
• Confirm system health after an upgrade.
• Sanity-check critical features after configuration changes.

Examples

Example 1: Post-Deployment Verification

User request: "Run a smoke test after deploying the new version."

The skill will:

1. Execute the smoke test suite.
2. Report the pass/fail status of each test, highlighting any failures in authentication or core feature validation.

Example 2: Configuration Change Validation

User request: "/st to validate the recent database configuration changes."

The skill will:

1. Execute the smoke test suite.
2. Report the results, specifically checking the system health and integration tests to ensure the database changes didn't introduce issues.

Best Practices

• Focus: Ensure smoke tests focus on the most critical user flows and system components.
• Speed: Keep the smoke test suite execution time under 5 minutes for rapid feedback.
• Integration: Integrate smoke tests into your CI/CD pipeline for automated post-deployment verification.

Integration

This skill can be used in conjunction with other deployment and monitoring tools to provide a comprehensive view of application health and stability. It works independently, requiring only the /smoke-test or /st command to initiate.
