/test — Test Planning + E2E

Usage

/test                         # full test phase
/test --plan-only             # just generate test plan + cases
/test --e2e-only              # just generate Playwright tests

Prerequisites

• specs/stories/ must exist
• Source code in backend/ and frontend/ must exist (run /implement first)
• Docker Compose stack must be deployable (run /deploy first for E2E)

Steps

1. Read .claude/skills/testing/SKILL.md for test patterns.
2. Read .claude/skills/testing/references/playwright.md for Playwright patterns.
3. Spawn test-engineer agent.
4. Agent generates to specs/test_artefacts/:
   • test-plan.md — strategy, scope, environments
   • test-cases.md — all cases mapped to acceptance criteria
   • test-data/ — realistic fixtures (JSON/PDF)
   • e2e/flows/ — Playwright test files
5. Copy Playwright config template:

   cp .claude/skills/testing/templates/playwright.config.ts playwright.config.ts
   

6. Install Playwright browsers:

   npx playwright install --with-deps chromium
   

7. Verify Docker stack is healthy before E2E:

   docker compose up -d --build
   curl --retry 5 --retry-delay 3 http://localhost:8000/health
   curl --retry 5 --retry-delay 3 http://localhost:3000
   

8. Run Playwright: npx playwright test
9. Generate report: npx playwright show-report

Verification

uv run pytest -x -q           # unit tests still pass
npm test                       # vitest still passes
npx playwright test            # E2E tests pass
npx playwright show-report     # visual report

Gotchas

• Test cases not mapped to acceptance criteria. Every test case must reference a story ID and criterion. Unmapped tests are either missing coverage or testing nothing useful.
• Playwright selectors using CSS classes. Use getByRole(), getByLabel(), getByText() — never CSS selectors or XPath. Class names change; roles don't.
• Flaky waits. Never page.waitForTimeout(5000). Use expect(locator).toBeVisible() or page.waitForResponse() for deterministic waits.
• E2E tests without Docker. Playwright config must use webServer to start Docker Compose. Tests that assume services are already running will fail in CI.
• Missing test data fixtures. Use realistic data (real names, valid amounts) — not "test", "foo", "123".
