## What it does

\`setup-comprehensive-testing` inspects the project before changing it: it checks the project type, test files, CI markers, and references to known frameworks. Its work is controlled by an argument such as `--unit`, `--integration`, `--e2e`, `--visual`, `--performance`, or `--full-stack`. The command can read and edit files and run shell checks through `Read`, `Write`, `Edit`, and `Bash`.

The setup covers unit runners such as Jest, Vitest, and pytest, plus integration tests with test databases and API checks. It can configure Cypress or Playwright for browser flows, visual regression, performance benchmarks, accessibility checks, and CI/CD execution with parallel tests and quality gates. Contract, chaos, load, security, cross-browser, and mobile testing are listed as advanced areas. The command needs `Bash` access to run its project checks and setup commands.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **claude-code-templates**
```bash
npx claude-code-templates@latest --command testing/setup-comprehensive-testing
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/commands/setup-comprehensive-testing.md` — Call it with /setup-comprehensive-testing. For all projects use ~/.claude/commands/

### Codex

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.codex/prompts/setup-comprehensive-testing.md` — Call it with /prompts:setup-comprehensive-testing. Codex marks this format deprecated in favour of skills

### GitHub Copilot

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/prompts/setup-comprehensive-testing.prompt.md`

### Gemini CLI

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.gemini/commands/setup-comprehensive-testing.toml` — Gemini stores commands as TOML: the prompt text goes into the prompt field

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/davila7/claude-code-templates/tree/HEAD/cli-tool/components/commands/testing/setup-comprehensive-testing.md

## When to use it
- design a testing pyramid for the project
- configure Jest, Vitest, or pytest
- add isolated integration and API checks
- prepare Cypress or Playwright browser flows
- connect test runs to CI/CD

## Example prompts
- Set up layered testing for the whole project with `/testing:setup-comprehensive-testing --full-stack`.
- Configure unit testing with `/testing:setup-comprehensive-testing --unit`.
- Add browser checks for the `checkout` area using `/testing:setup-comprehensive-testing checkout --e2e`.

# Setup Comprehensive Testing

Setup complete testing infrastructure with multi-layer testing strategy: **$ARGUMENTS**

## Current Testing Infrastructure

- Project type: !`[ -f package.json ] && echo "Node.js" || [ -f requirements.txt ] && echo "Python" || [ -f pom.xml ] && echo "Java" || echo "Multi-language"`
- Existing tests: !`find . -name "*.test.*" -o -name "*.spec.*" | wc -l` test files
- CI system: !`find . -name ".github" -o -name ".gitlab-ci.yml" -o -name "Jenkinsfile" | head -1 || echo "No CI detected"`
- Framework: !`grep -l "jest\\|vitest\\|pytest\\|junit" package.json requirements.txt pom.xml 2>/dev/null | head -1 || echo "Detect framework"`

## Task

Implement comprehensive testing infrastructure with multi-layer testing strategy:

**Setup Scope**: Use $ARGUMENTS to focus on unit, integration, e2e, visual, performance testing, or full-stack implementation

**Comprehensive Testing Framework**:

1. **Testing Strategy Design** - Analyze project requirements, define testing pyramid, plan coverage goals, optimize testing investment
2. **Unit Testing Setup** - Configure primary framework (Jest, Vitest, pytest), setup test runners, implement test utilities, optimize execution
3. **Integration Testing** - Setup integration test framework, configure test databases, implement API testing, optimize test isolation
4. **E2E Testing Configuration** - Setup browser testing (Cypress, Playwright), configure test environments, implement page objects
5. **Visual & Performance Testing** - Setup visual regression testing, configure performance benchmarks, implement accessibility testing
6. **CI/CD Integration** - Configure automated test execution, setup parallel testing, implement quality gates, optimize pipeline performance

**Advanced Features**: Contract testing, chaos engineering, load testing, security testing, cross-browser testing, mobile testing.

**Infrastructure Quality**: Test reliability, execution performance, maintainability, scalability, cost optimization.

**Output**: Complete testing infrastructure with configured frameworks, CI integration, quality metrics, and maintenance workflows.
