## What it does

This skill shifts Quarkus service tests to plain JUnit 5 with `@ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class)`. The heavier `@QuarkusTest` container boots only when CDI injection is strictly necessary. For CDI-managed components, it applies `@InjectMock` for full replacements or `@InjectSpy` for partial method overrides. It also structures HTTP checks with REST Assured and collapses duplicate tests via `@ParameterizedTest`.

A rigid compilation check governs the entire workflow. The project must compile cleanly with `./mvnw compile` before any test changes begin. If compilation fails, the agent must halt immediately. Once edits are complete, `./mvnw clean verify` validates the whole suite.

Test naming dictates test phases. Suffixes ending in `Test` run early in Maven Surefire. Suffixes ending in `IT` are reserved for Failsafe integration runs.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add jabrena/plinth --skill 421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add jabrena/plinth --skill 421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add jabrena/plinth --skill 421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install jabrena/plinth 421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add jabrena/plinth --skill 421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/jabrena/plinth --path skills/421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add jabrena/plinth --skill 421-frameworks-quarkus-testing-unit-tests -a opencode
```

## When to use it
- speed up slow test suites burdened by `@QuarkusTest`
- write pure unit tests without booting the CDI runtime
- mock CDI dependencies partially using `@InjectSpy`
- consolidate repetitive test cases with `@ParameterizedTest`

## Example prompts
- Refactor order service tests to use pure Mockito without booting Quarkus
- Add partial mocking with `@InjectSpy` to this Quarkus test
- Convert duplicate test methods to a `@ParameterizedTest` with `@CsvSource`

# Quarkus Unit Testing

Apply fast testing strategies for Quarkus: Mockito-first, QuarkusTest when CDI wiring matters.

**What is covered in this Skill?**

- Pure JUnit 5 + Mockito without container boot (@ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class))
- @QuarkusTest with @InjectMock for full CDI bean replacement
- @InjectSpy for partial mocking — real bean wrapped as spy, specific methods overridden
- REST Assured for HTTP-level @QuarkusTest resource tests
- @ParameterizedTest with @CsvSource (inline data) and @MethodSource (complex objects)
- QuarkusTestProfile and @TestProfile for test-specific configuration overrides
- Naming conventions: *Test → Surefire (fast phase), *IT → Failsafe (verify phase)
- When to escalate to integration tests (`@422`)

**Scope:** Apply recommendations based on the reference rules and good/bad code examples.

## Constraints

Compile before test refactors; verify the full suite after.

- **MANDATORY**: Run `./mvnw compile` or `mvn compile` before applying any change
- **PREREQUISITE**: Project must compile before applying test improvements
- **SAFETY**: If compilation fails, stop immediately
- **BLOCKING CONDITION**: Compilation errors must be resolved by the user before proceeding
- **VERIFY**: Run `./mvnw clean verify` or `mvn clean verify` after applying improvements
- **BEFORE APPLYING**: Read the reference for detailed rules and examples

## When to use this skill

- Add or improve unit tests in a Quarkus project
```
