test-automation-framework

A test automation framework provides structure, reusability, and maintainability for automated tests. It defines patterns for organizing tests, managing test data, handling dependencies, and generating reports. A well-designed framework reduces duplication, improves reliability, and accelerates test development.

Security Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.
