What it does

When installed, the agent follows a set of guidelines for writing C# unit tests using TUnit, a testing framework for .NET. It shows how to structure test projects and classes, use TUnit attributes for standard and data-driven tests, write asynchronous fluent assertions, and migrate existing xUnit tests to TUnit. The skill is a written guide the agent reads; it does not run anything on its own.

Great for

  • C# developers on .NET 8 or later starting a new TUnit test project
  • Teams migrating test suites from xUnit to TUnit
  • Developers who want help writing data-driven tests with [Arguments] or [MethodData]

Skip it if

  • Projects that use xUnit, NUnit or MSTest and do not plan to switch, since the guidance is specific to TUnit (no reason to change frameworks just for this skill)
  • Non-C# codebases, because the content only covers the .NET ecosystem

Try asking

  • “Convert these xUnit tests in my OrderService.Tests project to TUnit”
  • “Write data-driven TUnit tests for my PriceCalculator class using [Arguments]”
  • “Set up a TUnit test project for my .NET 8 web API and explain the lifecycle hooks I should use”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Name the class or method you want tested so the agent can match test class names to the code under test.
  • Ask the agent to run dotnet test afterwards to confirm the generated tests actually pass.
  • Check the generated code against the official TUnit documentation, since the skill's guidance is brief and version details may change.
