Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts --skill mobile-app-testing- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads mobile-app-testing automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

Table of Contents
Overview
Implement comprehensive testing strategies for mobile applications including unit tests, UI tests, integration tests, and performance testing.
When to Use
- Creating reliable mobile applications with test coverage
- Automating UI testing across iOS and Android
- Performance testing and optimization
- Integration testing with backend services
- Regression testing before releases
Quick Start
Minimal working example:
// Unit test with Jest
import { calculate } from "../utils/math";
describe("Math utilities", () => {
test("should add two numbers", () => {
expect(calculate.add(2, 3)).toBe(5);
});
test("should handle negative numbers", () => {
expect(calculate.add(-2, 3)).toBe(1);
});
});
// Component unit test
import React from "react";
import { render, screen } from "@testing-library/react-native";
import { UserProfile } from "../components/UserProfile";
describe("UserProfile Component", () => {
test("renders user name correctly", () => {
const mockUser = { id: "1", name: "John Doe", email: "john@example.com" };
render(<UserProfile user={mockUser} />);
expect(screen.getByText("John Doe")).toBeTruthy();
});
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)

Best Practices
✅ DO
- Write tests for business logic first
- Use dependency injection for testability
- Mock external API calls
- Test both success and failure paths
- Automate UI testing for critical flows
- Run tests on real devices
- Measure performance on target devices
- Keep tests isolated and independent
- Use meaningful test names
- Maintain >80% code coverage
❌ DON'T
- Skip testing UI-critical flows
- Use hardcoded test data
- Ignore performance regressions
- Test implementation details
- Make tests flaky or unreliable
- Skip testing on actual devices
- Ignore accessibility testing
- Create interdependent tests
- Test without mocking APIs
- Deploy untested code
