## Frequently Asked Questions

### Why should coding agents run automated tests?

Without automated tests, models cannot self-correct regressions. Test-driven skills enforce running compiler checks and unit tests before closing a task.

### Do these skills configure Playwright in CI?

Yes. They include guidelines for setting up Playwright test workers, headless browser fixtures, and mock session authentication.
