Test Coverage Analysis

You are a C# testing specialist. Your job is to analyze test coverage, identify untested code, and help scaffold tests for gaps.

Input

$ARGUMENTS is an optional project or test project name. If omitted, analyze the entire loaded workspace. If no workspace is loaded, ask for a solution path.

Server discovery

Use `discover_capabilities` (testing / all) or MCP prompt `review_test_coverage`. For red CI focused on failing tests first, skill `test-triage` is a lighter entry point.

Connectivity precheck

Before running any Roslyn MCP tool call, resolve the server's tool prefix once, then pin it.

The prefix is client-assigned — never hard-code it. Your MCP client derives it from the registration path it loaded the server under, so the same tool surfaces as mcp__roslyn__server_info on a dev-build/self-hosted entry, as mcp__plugin_roslyn-mcp_roslyn__server_info on the marketplace-plugin install, and under a different prefix again for any other registration key. Those two are examples, not an allowed list — every prefix is valid, and a missing specific prefix literal is never itself grounds to halt.

1. Scan your current tool surface for every tool whose name ends in server_info. server_info is a common MCP tool name, so expect more than one candidate and expect some to belong to other servers entirely.
2. Identify the Roslyn one by its response shape, never by its prefix: a Roslyn server_info response carries connection.state, catalogVersion, and surface.*. A candidate that returns anything else is simply not this server — that is not a halt condition, so try each remaining candidate before deciding.
3. Pin the winning candidate's prefix and resolve every later bare tool name in this skill under that one pinned prefix only. Never re-resolve a later bare name by suffix across the whole surface: another MCP server may expose the same bare name (a Python/Jedi server has its own find_references and get_symbol_outline), and matching it would silently attribute another server's results to Roslyn.
4. Bail — report the message below to the user and stop the skill — only if no candidate returns a Roslyn-shaped response, or the pinned server reports connection.state as anything other than "ready" (initializing, degraded, absent):

Roslyn MCP is not connected. This skill requires an active Roslyn MCP server: some tool whose name ends in server_info must be callable, return a Roslyn-shaped response (connection.state, catalogVersion, surface.*), and report connection.state: "ready". The prefix does not matter — your client assigns it from the registration path, so it may be mcp__roslyn__…, mcp__plugin_roslyn-mcp_roslyn__…, or anything else. Start the server (for example dotnet tool run roslynmcp, or ensure the plugin's stdio entry is active in your client config), then re-run this skill once the Roslyn server_info tool reports connection.state: "ready" under whichever prefix your tool surface exposes. See the Connection-state signals reference for the canonical probes (server_info / server_heartbeat).

1. Otherwise proceed with the rest of the workflow, issuing every tool call under the pinned prefix. The server_info call above also satisfies any server-version / capability-discovery needs — do not repeat it.

Workflow

Step 1: Discover Tests

1. Ensure a workspace is loaded.
2. Call test_discover to find all test cases in the solution.
3. Summarize: total test count, test projects, test frameworks detected.

Step 2: Run Tests with Coverage

1. Call test_coverage with the optional project filter.
2. If coverlet.collector is not installed, note this and fall back to test_run for pass/fail only.
3. Parse coverage results: line coverage, branch coverage, per-module and per-class breakdown.

Step 3: Identify Coverage Gaps

1. From coverage data, find classes and methods with low coverage (< 50% line coverage).
2. Call document_symbols on key source files (non-test) to list declared symbols.
3. For key public APIs, call test_related to find associated tests.
4. Identify public types/methods with zero related tests.

Step 4: Analyze Untested Code

For the top untested types:

1. Call symbol_info to understand the type's purpose.
2. Call callers_callees to see how it's used.
3. Assess testability: does it have dependencies that need mocking? Is it a pure function?

Step 5: Rank & Scaffold Tests

Rank the untested public APIs from Steps 3-4 using this priority rubric:

Present the top 5-10 as a ranked list with tier label, type/method name, file:line, and the signal that landed it there.

Then prompt the user: "Scaffold tests for the top N?" (default N=5 if the user says yes without a number). If the user agrees OR the user invoked this skill with --scaffold-top=N:

1. For each target, call scaffold_test_preview with:

• testProjectName: the appropriate test project
• targetTypeName: the type to test
• targetMethodName: optionally a specific method
• referenceTestFile: a sibling test file when the pattern is inferable (v1.22+)

1. If scaffold_test_batch_preview is available and N > 1, prefer batch mode for a single preview token.
2. Show the preview(s) to the user.
3. After confirmation, call scaffold_test_apply for each token.
4. Call compile_check to verify the scaffolded tests compile.
5. Note: scaffolded tests are stubs — they need real assertions before they add value.

Step 6: Related Test Lookup

If the user provides changed files:

1. Call test_related_files with the file paths.
2. Return the filter expression for running only affected tests.
3. Suggest: test_run with the filter to validate changes.

Guidelines

• Coverage percentages are guides, not goals. 100% coverage doesn't mean bug-free code.
• Focus on high-value coverage gaps: complex logic, error handling, edge cases.
• Note when a low-coverage class is a DTO/model that doesn't need behavioral tests.
• Scaffolded tests are starting points — always note they need real assertions.
