Test Plan Generator

Generate comprehensive test plans from requirements, user stories, or feature specifications.

Description

This skill transforms requirements documents, user stories, Jira tickets, or feature descriptions into structured, actionable test plans with full coverage of functional, edge case, and non-functional scenarios.

Instructions

When the user provides requirements or a feature description:

1. Parse Requirements: Extract testable requirements, acceptance criteria, and business rules
2. Identify Test Scenarios: For each requirement, generate:
   • Happy path scenarios
   • Negative/error scenarios
   • Boundary value scenarios
   • Edge cases
3. Organize by Priority: Classify tests as P0 (Critical), P1 (High), P2 (Medium), P3 (Low)
4. Define Test Cases: For each scenario, specify:
   • ID: Unique identifier (TC-XXX)
   • Title: Clear, descriptive name
   • Preconditions: Required setup
   • Steps: Numbered step-by-step instructions
   • Expected Result: Specific, verifiable outcome
   • Priority: P0-P3
   • Type: Functional / UI / API / Security / Performance
5. Coverage Matrix: Map test cases back to requirements to ensure 100% coverage
