testing
Probe, load-test, and instrument frontends from Grafana Cloud. Covers Synthetic Monitoring (HTTP / DNS / TCP / Ping / Traceroute / Multihttp / k6-browser scripted checks from 20+ global probes, alert on `probe_success` + TLS-cert expiry), Grafana Cloud k6 (distributed load tests across AWS load-zones, scenarios, `http_req_duration` thresholds, CI integration via `grafana/k6-action`), and Frontend Observability with Faro Web SDK (RUM, Core Web Vitals, custom events, `pushError`, distributed-trace correlation). Use when checking website / API uptime from multiple regions, gating a release on a load test, watching for TLS-cert renewal, instrumenting a React/Vue app, tracking Core Web Vitals, or correlating frontend errors to backend traces — even when the user says "is my login flow up?", "monitor my API", "ping our endpoint every minute", "release-gate load test", "browser performance monitoring", "session replay", or "RUM" without naming Synthetic Monitoring / k6 / Faro.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "grafana/skills:testing" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
