I open-sourced 24 QA skills for Claude Code — from spec to release

Open-source release of "QA Claude Skill," a collection of 24 production-grade QA skills for Claude Code covering test design, automation, performance, security, and mutation testing. The skills are designed to be configurable for any team via a `config.json` file, with support for multiple modes (including markdown-only for solo developers) and bilingual documentation in Traditional Chinese and English. The project is available under a dual license (MIT for non-commercial use, with commercial licenses available case-by-case).

TL;DR— I just open-sourcedQA Claude Skill— 24 production-grade QA skills for Claude Code covering test design, automation, performance, security, mutation testing, and more. MIT for non-commercial use.. GitHub repo The problem For two years I've been iterating a personal Claude Code workspace for QA work — bug reports, test plans, review checklists, regression matrices. It saved me hours every week. But every time a colleague asked "how do you write a test plan that fast?" — handing them my workspace meant they got dozens of files hard-coded with my JIRA project key, my Slack user ID, my AWS bucket. Useless to anyone else. So I spent the last two weeks extracting 24 skills into a properly generalized, open-source repo. Drop in your team's IDs via config.json and it works for any team, any stack. What's in the box 24 skills across 8 categories: | Category | Skills | |---|---| Test Design 8 | test-master · flutter-test-master · test-review · regression-test · speckit-to-tc · tc-version-diff · sheet-md-sync · smoke-test-analyzer | Automation 3 | test-automation · flutter-test-automation · tc-to-pytest | Bug Management 1 | bug-report | Quality Quantification 2 | mutation-testing · property-based-test-gen | Reporting 1 | publish-regression | Performance & Security 3 | performance-test-gen · security-scan · api-contract-test | CI Health 2 | visual-regression-gen · flaky-test-hunter | Quality Specialties 4 | a11y-audit · localization-test · push-notification-test · test-data-factory | What it actually does Each skill activates on natural language triggers. Some examples: 1. "I want to file a bug" The bug-report skill walks you through RIDER format Reproduction / Impact / Device / Expected vs Actual / References , checks JIRA for duplicates, does root-cause analysis from git history, creates the ticket with the right priority, and sends a Slack DM — in one conversation. 2. "Plan tests for this new feature" test-master reads your JIRA ticket or your description , scans both iOS and Android repos for affected modules, designs a test pyramid 70% Unit / 20% Integration / 10% UI , generates black-box + white-box test cases in Google Sheets, identifies coverage gaps against existing tests, and builds an automation ROI roadmap. It also enforces a11y must-checks per UI feature Dynamic Type / VoiceOver / contrast / touch targets — no more "we forgot accessibility" at the end of the sprint. 3. "Are my tests actually catching bugs?" mutation-testing runs mutmut on your Python backend. It changes < to <= , True to False , or numeric literals — then re-runs your pytest. If your tests still pass with the broken code, that mutation survived = your TCs have fake coverage. Then property-based-test-gen takes those survived mutations and generates hypothesis strategies that fuzz 200 inputs per test to close the gap. 4. "Which tests should run on every PR?" smoke-test-analyzer scans your existing test suite iOS XCUITest / Android Espresso / pytest , scores each test on 5 weighted criteria criticality / speed / stability / independence / coverage value , and tiers them: - T0 PR Smoke < 3 min — runs every PR - T1 Daily < 10 min — runs nightly - T2 Release < 60 min — pre-release full regression - T3 Manual — exploratory, visual, a11y Then it generates .xctestplan for iOS or Gradle filters for Android. Three modes for any tool stack Not every team has the same MCP servers installed. Same skills, three modes: | Mode | When to use | |---|---| full-mcp | You have Atlassian + Slack + Google Workspace MCPs | partial-mcp | Some MCPs missing — skills degrade gracefully | markdown-only | Solo dev / no MCP / pure documentation flow | The markdown-only mode is what makes this actually portable — every skill can still produce useful Markdown reports under .claude/testing/ without external dependencies. Solo developers can use the full suite without setting up anything. 6 ready-to-use presets cp config/presets/full-stack.json config/config.json All MCPs cp config/presets/jira-only.json config/config.json JIRA only cp config/presets/markdown-only.json config/config.json Pure docs cp config/presets/startup.json config/config.json Small startup cp config/presets/enterprise.json config/config.json 5 team boards cp config/presets/government.json config/config.json High-compliance Why I made it bilingual + 简体 I'm Taiwanese, and most of the test-engineering content out there is English-first. So every skill ships with: - SKILL.md — Traditional Chinese primary - SKILL.en.md — English mirror - concept-zh.md — Beginner intros for unfamiliar concepts mutation testing, property-based testing, spec-driven dev, test tiering The README is in English primary , Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese. The license model I went with a dual license : - 🟢 MIT — Personal use / education / research / non-profits / 30-day evaluation / open-source contributions - 🔴 Commercial — For-profit company internal use, paid products, SaaS, paid consulting See LICENSE-COMMERCIAL.md https://github.com/kao273183/qa-claude-skill/blob/main/LICENSE-COMMERCIAL.md for how to obtain a commercial license. I'm doing this case-by-case via GitHub Issues — the goal isn't to monetize aggressively, but to leave space for sustainable enterprise support if it grows. Quick start git clone https://github.com/kao273183/qa-claude-skill.git cd qa-claude-skill cp config/config.example.json config/config.json Edit your IDs ./install.sh In Claude Code: Generate test plan for a user login feature The test-master skill activates and walks you through. Or try: "I want to file a bug — the checkout crashes on Android" "Review these test cases Google Sheet URL " "Check if my tests actually catch bugs in src/auth/" Windows users — there's a PowerShell version install.ps1 as of v1.3.0. What's still missing This is v1.6.2. The roadmap still has: - Japanese translation - Web UI for editing config.json visually - More skills test-impact-analyzer, oauth-flow-test, websocket-realtime-test, llm-quality-eval... PRs welcome. The CONTRIBUTING.md has the template for adding a new skill. Try it GitHub: kao273183/qa-claude-skill I'd love to hear what skills are missing for your team's stack — drop an issue or comment below. If this saves your team time, you can buy me a coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/minikao ☕ — but a ⭐ on the repo helps more. This is a community / personal project for Claude Code users — NOT an official Anthropic product.
