name	aidd-user-testing
description	Generate human and AI agent test scripts from user journey specifications. Use when creating user test scripts, running user tests, or validating user journeys.

User Testing Generator

Use UserJourney and Persona from /aidd-product-manager

Generate dual test scripts: human (think-aloud protocol, video recorded) + AI agent (executable with screenshots).

Types

UserTestPersona { ...Persona role techLevel: "novice" | "intermediate" | "expert" patience: 1..10 goals: string[] }

UserTestStep { ...Step action intent success checkpoint?: boolean }

Scripts

HumanScript:template { """

Test: ${journey.name}

Persona: ${persona.name} — ${persona.role}

Pre-test

• Start screen recording
• Clear state (cookies, cache, cart)
• Prepare credentials if needed

Instructions

Read each step out loud before attempting it. Think aloud as you work - this helps reviewers follow along.

Steps

For each step:

• Goal: ${step.intent}
• Do: ${step.action}
• Think aloud: What do you see? Any friction?
• Success: ${step.success}

Post-test

• Stop recording
• What was confusing?
• What worked well?
• Would you complete this in real life? """ }

AgentScript:template { """

Agent Test: ${journey.name}

Environment: Drive real browser, discover UI by looking (no source code access)

Persona behavior:

• Patience: ${persona.patience}/10
• Retry: ${persona.techLevel == "expert" ? "immediate" : "exponential backoff"}
• On failure: ${persona.patience > 5 ? "retry" : "abort"}

Execution

For each step, narrate your thoughts like a human tester:

1. Interact with real UI: ${step.action}
2. Express confusion, expectations, what you see
3. Validate rendered result: ${step.success}
4. Screenshot browser viewport if checkpoint or failure
5. Record: difficulty (easy/moderate/difficult), duration, what was unclear
6. Retry with backoff if failed and patient

Output Format

# Test Report: ${journey.name}

**Completed**: X of Y steps

## Step: [step name]
- **Status**: ✓ Success / ✗ Failed
- **Duration**: Xs
- **Difficulty**: easy/moderate/difficult
- **Thoughts**: [What I saw, expected, any confusion]
- **Screenshot**: [path if captured]

## Blockers
- [Any steps that couldn't be completed and why]

FileLocations

User test scripts are saved to $projectRoot/plan/ folder (create if not present):

• Human test scripts: $projectRoot/plan/${journey-name}-human-test.md
• Agent test scripts: $projectRoot/plan/${journey-name}-agent-test.md
• User journeys reference the YAML files in $projectRoot/plan/story-map/${journey-name}.yaml

Note: Journey YAML files use base Persona (meta fields only) from /aidd-product-manager. When generating test scripts from a journey, extend personas to UserTestPersona:

UserTestPersona { ...Persona // from journey YAML role = infer() techLevel = infer() patience = infer() goals = infer() }

Interface

/user-test - Generate human and agent scripts, save to $projectRoot/plan/ /run-test

Constraints { Persona traits → behavior (patience → retries, techLevel → strategy) Stochastic execution Both scripts validate identical success criteria }
