Testing Lazy Lists

Q: What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Testing Lazy Lists skill fit in?

A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Testing Lazy Lists is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category.

Use this skill to test `LazyColumn`, `LazyRow`, and `LazyVerticalGrid` correctly — tag the container with `Modifier.testTag(...)`, tag each item by its key, scroll via the semantic action (`hasScrollAction()`, `performScrollToIndex`, `performScrollToKey`) or via `Modifier.testTag` plus `performTouchInput { swipeUp() }`, and verify visibility with `assertIsDisplayed` (NOT `assertExists`, since off-screen lazy items still exist as semantic nodes in some configurations). Covers `LazyListState.layoutInfo.visibleItemsInfo` as the highest-signal probe, `mainClock.autoAdvance = false` for animated item placement, and the parameterized vertical/horizontal base-class pattern. Use when the developer asks "how do I scroll a LazyColumn in a test", "assertExists vs assertIsDisplayed", "scroll to a key", "test item placement animation", or sees a test pass when an item is off-screen.

About this skill (catalog notes)

How Testing Lazy Lists fits the catalog

Testing Lazy Lists sits in the Engineering category under the testing sub-topic in the ClaudSkills catalog. There are 10 related skills indexed alongside it; comparing a few before installing usually reveals which fits your workflow best.

These notes are auto-generated from features detected in the SKILL.md file and from this catalog's structure — they aren't part of the source repository.

From the source SKILL.md

LazyColumn / LazyRow / LazyVerticalGrid only compose items that are or were near the viewport. That breaks the naive "find by text and assert" flow because off-screen items may not exist, may exist as detached semantic nodes, or may exist with wrong bounds. This skill encodes the patterns androidx itself uses — tag the container, scroll via the semantic action or via testTag + a swipe gesture, verify with assertIsDisplayed, and read LazyListState.layoutInfo for ground truth.

What this skill does

Testing Lazy Lists is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the testing sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/testing-lazy-lists/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when the developer asks "how do I scroll a LazyColumn in a test", "assertExists vs assertIsDisplayed", "scroll to a key", "test item placement animation", or sees a test pass when an item is off-screen.

Who uses this skill

The Testing Lazy Lists Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 93,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
