## What it is
A repository that exists primarily as a host for a wiki of educational material about contributing tests and testing practices. It contains no code itself, serving purely as a learning resource.

## Use cases
- learn how to write good tests
- understand testing best practices
- onboard new developers to testing
- find guidance on contributing tests to open source
- study test design approaches

## When to choose
- you want curated written guidance on testing practices
- you are teaching or onboarding developers on testing
- you need a reference to link when discussing test contributions

## When to avoid
- you need a runnable testing library or framework
- you expect tooling, code, or releases
- you need up-to-date content, as the wiki has not seen recent releases

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: testing, documentation
- domain: testing, developer-tools, tutorials
- platform: -
- tags: wiki, testing-guide, educational, best-practices
