Individual skill
test-mac-app
Test a macOS app at three levels, from Swift Testing unit tests and an in-app self-test to a debug bridge that lets an agent drive the running app and read its state, plus computer use for real clicks. Use when adding logic, fixing a bug, before a release, or when the user asks for tests, end-to-end checks, or "make sure it works".

# Test a Mac app
Three levels, cheapest first. Each new story gets the cheapest level that
can prove its acceptance criteria. A bug fix starts with a test that fails.
| Level | Proves | Speed |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Unit tests (Swift Testing) | Rules, parsing, data | Seconds |
| Self-test (`--selftest`) | The app's real functions on a test store | Seconds |
| Key events and menu audit (inside the self-test) | Keyboard flows and every shortcut, without the screen | Seconds |
| Debug bridge + computer use | Global shortcuts, panels, permissions, other apps | Minutes |
Snapshots (`build-and-verify` skill) prove how it looks. This skill proves
how it behaves.
