Skill Test — skills-for-fabric Evaluation Framework

Manage the end-to-end evaluation framework for skills-for-fabric. This skill routes requests to the correct workflow based on user intent — adding tests, listing tests, running tests, viewing results, generating data, or checking coverage.

When to Use

When a contributor wants to add evaluation test cases for a new or existing skill
When someone asks to see what tests exist or what results look like
When a user wants to run the test suite
When reviewing eval metrics or checking which skills lack test coverage

Intent Routing

Parse the user request and route to the appropriate workflow:

User Intent	Trigger Phrases	Action
Add evals	"add tests", "add evals", "add evals for missing skills", "create eval plan"	→ Workflow: Add Evals
List tests	"list tests", "list evals", "show me the list of tests", "what tests exist", "show eval plans"	→ Workflow: List Tests
Run tests	"run tests", "run evals", "execute tests", "run the eval suite"	→ Workflow: Run Tests
View results	"show eval results", "test results", "eval results", "executive summary"	→ Workflow: View Results
Generate data	"generate eval data", "generate test data", "create eval datasets"	→ Workflow: Generate Data
View metrics	"eval metrics", "test metrics", "what metrics", "how are tests scored"	→ Workflow: View Metrics
Check coverage	"test coverage", "which skills have tests", "missing tests", "skills without evals"	→ Workflow: Check Coverage

Workflow: Add Evals

Follow the instructions in

tests/full-eval-tests/README.md

§ "Adding Evals for New Skills".

Automated Path (Recommended)

Give the agent the prompt:

Add evals for the missing skills

The agent will:

Detect missing skills by comparing installed skills against existing eval plans in
```
tests/full-eval-tests/plan/03-individual-skills/
```
Generate individual eval plans (
```
plan/03-individual-skills/eval-<skill-name>.md
```
) with 10–12 test cases

Generate combined eval plans (

plan/04-combined-skills/eval-<skill>-authoring-plus-consumption.md

)

Create golden data in

tests/full-eval-tests/evalsets/expected-results/

Update tracking files:

plan/00-overview.md

README.md

plan/04-combined-skills/eval-full-pipeline.md

Manual Path

To add evals for a specific skill

<new-skill>

Create

tests/full-eval-tests/plan/03-individual-skills/eval-<new-skill>.md

using the template in the README

Each test case needs: Case ID (unique prefix), Prompt, Expected result, Pass criteria, at least one negative/ambiguous test

If the skill has an authoring+consumption pair, create

tests/full-eval-tests/plan/04-combined-skills/eval-<new-skill>-authoring-plus-consumption.md

Add golden data to

tests/full-eval-tests/evalsets/expected-results/

Update

plan/00-overview.md

README.md

directory tree, and

plan/04-combined-skills/eval-full-pipeline.md

Eval Plan Template

Use the template from

tests/full-eval-tests/README.md

§ "Eval Plan Template". Every eval plan must include:

Skill overview (name, category, R/W, purpose)
Pre-requisites
Numbered test cases (XX-01 through XX-10+) with Prompt / Expected / Pass criteria
At least one negative/ambiguous test case as the last case
Write Operations table (if the skill writes data)
Expected Token Range

Workflow: List Tests

Show the user what eval plans and test cases exist.

Individual Skill Evals

List files in

tests/full-eval-tests/plan/03-individual-skills/

ls tests/full-eval-tests/plan/03-individual-skills/

Combined Skill Evals

List files in

tests/full-eval-tests/plan/04-combined-skills/

ls tests/full-eval-tests/plan/04-combined-skills/

Quick Tests (tests.json)

Show the test cases defined in

tests/tests.json

— these are the prompt-based tests run by the test runner.

Recommended Execution Order

Order	Eval Plan	Reason
1	eval-check-updates.md	Verify skills are installed
2	eval-spark-authoring.md	Create lakehouses and load data
3	eval-sqldw-authoring.md	Create warehouse tables and load data
4	eval-eventhouse-authoring.md	Create Eventhouse tables and ingest data
5	eval-spark-consumption.md	Read back lakehouse data
6	eval-sqldw-consumption.md	Read back warehouse data
7	eval-eventhouse-consumption.md	Read back Eventhouse data
8	eval-medallion.md	End-to-end medallion pipeline

Workflow: Run Tests

⛔ DO NOT execute tests from this skill. The agent must NEVER run
copilot
,
run-full-tests.ps1
, or any eval prompt directly. Instead, tell the user the exact commands to run manually.

When the user asks to run tests, respond only with instructions. Do not execute any commands. Tell the user:

Open a terminal and navigate to the
```
tests/
```
directory at the repository root:
```
cd tests
```

Run the full test suite:

.\run-full-tests.ps1

To specify an output directory:

.\run-full-tests.ps1 -TestFolder C:\temp\eval-run-01

Important

The agent must NEVER run tests itself — only provide the user with instructions
Tests must be run by the user from inside the
```
tests/
```
folder
The script copies the eval framework to a working folder and launches copilot there

Workflow: View Results

Show the user existing evaluation results.

Detailed Results

Read

tests/full-eval-tests/eval-results.md

— contains per-skill, per-test-case pass/fail with notes, consistency test results, failure analysis, and skip reasons.

Executive Summary

Read

tests/full-eval-tests/executive-summary.md

— contains the high-level summary: overall pass rate, results by skill, data consistency scores, failure analysis, and recommendations.

Key Metrics from Latest Run

Metric	Value
Overall pass rate	94.7% (54/57 executed)
Write/Read consistency	100% (5/5 exact matches)
Total test cases	74
Skipped	17

Workflow: Generate Data

Generate synthetic evaluation datasets using the specifications in

tests/full-eval-tests/plan/01-data-generation.md

Using the Generation Script

python tests/full-eval-tests/evalsets/data-generation/generate.py

Datasets

Dataset	Rows	Format	Used By
sales_transactions	100 / 1K / 10K	CSV	SQL DW, Spark
customers	100	CSV	Join testing
products	50	CSV	Join testing
sensor_readings	500	JSON	Spark semi-structured

Golden Results

Pre-computed expected results are in

tests/full-eval-tests/evalsets/expected-results/

and are used to verify consistency.

Workflow: View Metrics

Explain the evaluation metrics defined in

tests/full-eval-tests/plan/02-metrics.md

Metric	Definition
Success Rate	`passed / total × 100` — whether the skill executed correctly
Token Usage	Input + output tokens consumed per eval prompt
Read/Write Consistency	Data written by authoring skill must be exactly retrievable by consumption skill

Grading

Grade	Criteria
PASS	Skill invoked correctly, output matches expected
FAIL_INVOCATION	Wrong skill invoked or not invoked
FAIL_EXECUTION	Skill invoked but errored
FAIL_RESULT	Skill completed but output mismatches

Pass Thresholds

Metric	Threshold
Success Rate	≥ 90% per skill
Token Usage	Within 2× of baseline
Read/Write Consistency	100% exact match

Workflow: Check Coverage

Compare installed skills against existing eval plans to identify gaps.

Steps

List all skills from the marketplace/plugin:

check-updates, spark-authoring-cli, spark-consumption-cli, sqldw-authoring-cli,
sqldw-consumption-cli, eventhouse-authoring-cli, eventhouse-consumption-cli, e2e-medallion-architecture

List existing individual eval plans:

ls tests/full-eval-tests/plan/03-individual-skills/

Compare and report which skills have eval coverage and which are missing.
For missing skills, suggest running the Add Evals workflow.

Must

NEVER execute tests, eval prompts, or the test runner script — only provide instructions for the user to run manually
Always route "run tests" to the
tests/
folder — tell the user to navigate there and run
```
run-full-tests.ps1
```
Follow the eval plan template when creating new eval plans — every test case needs Case ID, Prompt, Expected, Pass criteria
Include at least one negative/ambiguous test in every new eval plan

Update tracking files when adding evals —

plan/00-overview.md

README.md

eval-full-pipeline.md

Reference golden data in
```
evalsets/expected-results/
```
for consistency tests

Prefer

Automated eval generation ("add evals for missing skills") over manual creation
Reading existing eval plans as templates before creating new ones
Running the full suite rather than individual tests for comprehensive coverage
Checking the executive summary before diving into detailed results

Avoid

Running eval prompts outside the
```
tests/
```
directory
Executing tests, copilot commands, or the run-full-tests.ps1 script — the agent must only tell the user how to run them
Creating eval plans without a negative/ambiguous test case
Duplicating content already in the README or plan documents — reference them instead
Modifying golden result files unless the underlying data generation rules change
Skipping the tracking file updates when adding new evals

Examples

Adding Tests

User: "Add tests for the powerbi-consumption-cli skill"

Agent: Creates

tests/full-eval-tests/plan/03-individual-skills/eval-powerbi-consumption.md

with 10–12 test cases following the template, adds golden data to

evalsets/expected-results/

, and updates tracking files.

Listing Tests

User: "What tests exist?"

Agent: Lists all eval plans in

plan/03-individual-skills/

and

plan/04-combined-skills/

, plus the quick tests in

tests/tests.json

, with the recommended execution order.

Running Tests

User: "Run the tests"

Agent:

Tests must be run from the
tests/
folder. Navigate there and execute:
cd tests
.\run-full-tests.ps1

Viewing Results

User: "Show me the eval results"

Agent: Reads

tests/full-eval-tests/eval-results.md

and presents the summary table, highlighting pass rates and any failures.
