name: test-ci-gitlab-ci description: GitLab CI skill: integrate automated tests (web/api/mobile/perf) with consistent artifacts.

GitLab CI Integration (workflow)

Operating mode (token-efficient)

• Treat this skill as a router + governor.
• Do not load multiple procedures. Select exactly one procedure below and follow the chosen procedure end-to-end.

Routing (pick one procedure)

Shared non-negotiables (apply to all procedures)

1. Test command contract

   • Each suite must have a single deterministic command runnable in CI:
     • API (Newman): pnpm test:api
     • Web (Playwright): pnpm test:e2e:playwright
     • Web (Cypress): pnpm test:e2e:cypress
     • Perf (k6): pnpm test:perf:k6 or direct runner (k6 run ... / docker run grafana/k6 ...)
     • Mobile: pnpm test:mobile:<detox|maestro|appium>
   • Commands must:
     • exit non-zero on test failures
     • write artifacts to artifacts/<suite>/

2. Artifacts are mandatory

   • Always upload artifacts even on failure: artifacts/ or artifacts/<suite>/
   • Keep artifacts size-bounded (videos/traces on failure only when possible).

3. Secrets management

   • Use GitLab CI variables (masked/protected).
   • Never echo secrets in logs.

4. Gating policy

   • MR gating should run only fast, stable suites.
   • Heavy suites (mobile, load/stress) should be scheduled or manually triggered.

Minimal inputs before changing CI

• Whether .gitlab-ci.yml already exists and how the file is structured (includes, stages)
• Which suites are MR-gated vs scheduled
• Required CI variables and how they map to env vars
• Runner constraints (Docker executor, macOS runners for iOS, etc.)

Verification

• If you changed skills:

  • node .ai/scripts/lint-skills.mjs --strict
  • node .ai/skills/testing/test-ci-gitlab-ci/scripts/validate-skill.mjs

• If you changed .gitlab-ci.yml:

  • Trigger a pipeline and confirm:
    • correct suite execution
    • artifacts retained
    • failures show clear signals

Boundaries

• Do not hardcode secrets or base URLs in .gitlab-ci.yml.
• Do not make MR gating flaky; move unstable suites to scheduled runs.
