Boost efficiency today. - Repository: [Anthropic/claude-plugins-community](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community) - Tags: getting-started - Published: 2026-09-06 --- **The Claude Plugins Community repository includes eight testing and QA plugins: 42crunch-api-security-testing, ab-testing, meticulous, accessibility-test, agentsqa, testdino (with seven sub-skills), and figma-test.** These plugins help developers audit APIs, run visual regression tests, ensure accessibility compliance, and manage automated testing workflows directly within Claude Code. This guide covers each plugin's purpose, source location, and practical usage. ## Security and API Testing Plugins ### 42crunch-api-security-testing The **42crunch-api-security-testing** plugin audits OpenAPI specifications against security standards. It runs live conformance checks and identifies OWASP API vulnerabilities including BOLA (Broken Object Level Authorization) and BFLA (Broken Function Level Authorization). As defined in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) (lines 54-58), this plugin integrates 42Crunch's security-scanning capabilities into Claude's conversational interface. ```text # Run a full API-security audit /api-security-testing audit --openapi ./spec.yaml ``` ### ab-testing The **ab-testing** plugin generates A/B testing infrastructure and analytics. Found in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) (lines 88-93), it streamlines experiment setup without requiring external tooling. ```text # Spin up a new A/B experiment /ab-testing create --name "LandingPageV2" --variations 2 ``` ## Visual and UI Testing Plugins ### meticulous **Meticulous** provides visual regression testing for web and mobile applications. Categorized explicitly as `testing` in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) (lines 101-105), it enables developers to: - Review test run results - Investigate session replays - Debug visual diffs between versions ```text # Review the latest visual-regression run /meticulous review --run-id 1234 ``` ### figma-test The **figma-test** plugin generates UI tests from Figma design files. Listed in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) (lines 8408-8410), it bridges design handoff with automated testing. ```text # Produce UI tests from a Figma file /figma-test generate --file mydesign.fig ``` ## Accessibility and Exploratory Testing ### accessibility-test The **accessibility-test** plugin creates WCAG-compliant accessibility tests for any user interface. Defined in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) (lines 218-223), it automates accessibility validation without manual audit overhead. ```text # Generate WCAG tests for a URL /accessibility-test generate --url https://myapp.com ``` ### agentsqa **agentsqa** is an AI-powered QA testing agent that explores applications like a real user. According to [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) (lines 769-774), it discovers: - Visual bugs - Logical errors - Accessibility problems missed by unit tests ```text # Start an exploratory QA session on a live site /agentsqa explore --url https://myapp.com ``` ## TestDino Playwright Management Suite The **testdino** plugin is the most comprehensive testing tool in the repository. Declared in [`testdino/.claude-plugin/plugin.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/.claude-plugin/plugin.json) (lines 2-9), it provides a complete Playwright test management system through seven specialized skills. ### Core testdino Skills | Skill | Purpose | Source Path | |-------|---------|-------------| | **testdino-sessions** | Manage test sessions | [`testdino/skills/testdino-sessions/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/skills/testdino-sessions/SKILL.md) (lines 2-8) | | **testdino-runs** | Inspect Playwright test runs | [`testdino/skills/testdino-runs/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/skills/testdino-runs/SKILL.md) | | **testdino-releases** | Handle release workflows | [`testdino/skills/testdino-releases/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/skills/testdino-releases/SKILL.md) | | **testdino-manual-tests** | Manage manual test cases | [`testdino/skills/testdino-manual-tests/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/skills/testdino-manual-tests/SKILL.md) | | **testdino-manual-runs** | Execute manual test runs | [`testdino/skills/testdino-manual-runs/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/skills/testdino-manual-runs/SKILL.md) | | **testdino-health** | Check system health status | [`testdino/skills/testdino-health/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/skills/testdino-health/SKILL.md) | | **testdino-audit** | Run TestDino audits | [`testdino/skills/testdino-audit/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/testdino/skills/testdino-audit/SKILL.md) | Each skill is defined in its own [`SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/SKILL.md) file under `testdino/skills/`, following the repository's skill-based architecture. ```text # List the last 5 Playwright runs /testdino-runs list --limit 5 # Run a Playwright audit on a test file /testdino-audit run --file tests/e2e/login.spec.ts ``` ## How Testing Plugins Are Organized The repository structure separates testing functionality across two layers: 1. **Marketplace entries** in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) — single-file plugin definitions for simpler tools 2. **Full plugin directories** like `testdino/` — multi-skill plugins with dedicated skill files Non-testing plugins like **quickdesign** ([`quickdesign/skills/quickdesign/SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/quickdesign/skills/quickdesign/SKILL.md)) and **eli5** ([`eli5/.claude-plugin/plugin.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/eli5/.claude-plugin/plugin.json)) follow the same patterns but focus on design and explanation rather than quality assurance. ## Installing and Using Testing Plugins All plugins require installation in Claude Code before use. The repository does not specify version requirements in the analyzed files, so compatibility depends on your Claude Code version. Commands follow a consistent slash-prefix pattern: `/plugin-name action --flags`. Skills within multi-skill plugins use hyphenated names: `/testdino-sessions`, `/testdino-runs`, etc. ## Summary - **Eight testing and QA plugins** are available: 42crunch-api-security-testing, ab-testing, meticulous, accessibility-test, agentsqa, figma-test, and the seven-skill testdino suite - **Security testing**: 42crunch audits OpenAPI specs for OWASP vulnerabilities - **Visual testing**: meticulous handles regression testing; figma-test generates UI tests from designs - **Accessibility**: accessibility-test ensures WCAG compliance; agentsqa finds accessibility bugs through AI exploration - **Playwright management**: testdino provides complete test lifecycle management through individual skills defined in `testdino/skills/*/SKILL.md` - **Source files**: plugin definitions live in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json) or dedicated [`plugin.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/plugin.json) files with skills in [`SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/SKILL.md) files ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is the most comprehensive testing plugin in the Claude Plugins Community repository? **testdino** is the most comprehensive, offering seven specialized skills for Playwright test management: sessions, runs, releases, manual tests, manual runs, health checks, and audits. Each skill is defined in its own [`SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/SKILL.md) file under `testdino/skills/`. ### How does agentsqa differ from traditional automated testing? **agentsqa** uses AI to explore applications like a real user, finding visual bugs, logical errors, and accessibility problems that traditional unit tests miss. Unlike scripted tests, it adapts its exploration based on actual UI behavior. ### Where are plugin definitions stored in the repository? Simple plugins are defined in [`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json). Complex multi-skill plugins like testdino have dedicated directories with a [`plugin.json`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/plugin.json) manifest and individual [`SKILL.md`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/main/SKILL.md) files for each capability. ### Can I use these plugins without external testing infrastructure? Some plugins require external services—**42crunch-api-security-testing** needs 42Crunch integration, **meticulous** requires Meticulous setup, and **testdino** expects a TestDino environment. Plugins like **ab-testing**, **accessibility-test**, and **agentsqa** may operate with fewer external dependencies depending on implementation.
