Foundation skill that hosts shared references cited by other workflow skills (briefing template, dispatch patterns, orchestration doctrine, skill composition strategy). Loaded on demand by `shift-left-testing`, `sprint-testing`, `test-documentation`, `test-automation`, `regression-testing`, `project-discovery`, `adapt-framework`, `framework-development`. Do NOT use for: syncing AI-critical docs (use `/sync-ai-memory`), adapting KATA tests (use `/adapt-framework`), or onboarding the target project (use `/project-discovery`).
Walks new users through this repo's QA flow — Playwright + KATA + Allure + Xray stack, Jira QA workflow (Backlog → Shift-Left QA → Estimation → Ready For Dev → Ready For QA → In Testing → Tested → Closed), /shift-left-testing for pre-sprint AC refinement on backlog Stories, /sprint-testing for in-sprint manual QA, /test-documentation for TMS test cases, /test-automation for KATA-compliant E2E/API tests, /regression-testing for CI suite execution, /framework-development for boilerplate evolution, MCPs available (Context7, Tavily, Atlassian, Playwright, DBHub, OpenAPI, Postman), critical env vars. ALSO the front desk for anyone who is lost or wants to understand how the repo or any workflow skill works — conceptually AND visually: it explains in plain human language (suspending caveman/compressed register) and can open per-skill how-it-works presentations (Spanish, technical terms in English) in the user's default browser after asking. Triggers on: `onboard me to QA`, `explain this QA repo`, `first time using t
Execute regression test suites via CI/CD, analyze results, classify failures, and produce GO/NO-GO release decisions. Use when running regression, smoke, or sanity suites through GitHub Actions, monitoring workflow runs, downloading Allure or Playwright artifacts, classifying failures (REGRESSION vs FLAKY vs KNOWN vs ENVIRONMENT vs NEW TEST), computing pass-rate and trend metrics, deciding release readiness, generating executive quality reports, or creating regression issues. Triggers on: run regression, trigger test workflow, analyze test results, quality report, GO/NO-GO decision, release readiness, flaky tests, Allure report, smoke suite, pass rate, nightly test failure, stage 6. Do NOT use for writing new regression tests (that belongs to test-automation) or for manual fix verification (that belongs to sprint-testing).
Orchestrates pre-sprint Shift-Left QA on a batch of backlog Stories. Use when the user wants to refine acceptance criteria, surface ambiguities + gaps, draft an ATP outline, and hand off to PO/Dev BEFORE the Story enters a sprint — so defects are prevented in the requirements, not detected after implementation. Triggers on: shift-left testing, shift-left these stories, groom the backlog, pre-sprint QA, refine these N stories, pre-sprint refinement batch, prepare backlog for sprint planning, run AC refinement on UPEX-100/101/102, run shift-left QA, do early-game testing, pre-sprint test planning. ALSO trigger when the user pastes a comma-separated list of Story IDs sitting in Backlog / Shift-Left QA / Estimation / Ready For Dev and asks any variant of "refine", "groom", "clean these ACs", "shift-left these". Do NOT use for: in-sprint manual QA per ticket (use /sprint-testing — entry status is Ready For QA, this skill's entry status is Backlog/Shift-Left QA), Stage 4 TMS documentation + ROI (test-documentation)
Orchestrates in-sprint manual QA per ticket across Stages 1 (Planning), 2 (Execution) and 3 (Reporting). Use for user-story testing, bug retesting, and batch-sprint QA loops. Creates the PBI folder, drives session-start, runs the triage + veto + risk-score decision tree on bugs, produces the ATP + ATR + TC artifacts in the TMS, executes smoke and trifuerza (UI/API/DB) exploration, and files the final QA comment + bug reports. Triggers on: test this ticket, QA this user story, retest this bug, verify bug fix, run exploratory testing, smoke test a feature, process the sprint, next ticket in sprint, generate the SPRINT-N-TESTING framework, resume sprint testing, continue-from a ticket. Do NOT use for Stage 4 TMS documentation + ROI (test-documentation), Stage 5 automation coding (test-automation), Stage 6 regression suite execution (regression-testing), or onboarding a new repo (project-discovery).
Plan, write, and review automated tests following KATA (Component Action Test Architecture) on Playwright + TypeScript. Use when writing E2E or API/integration tests, creating Page or Api components, designing ATCs, parameterizing test data, registering fixtures, or reviewing test code for KATA compliance. Triggers on: write test, automate test, create E2E test, create API test, integration test, KATA, page object, API component, implementation plan, ATC, automated test case, review test code, automate module, automate ticket, add regression test. Always load before writing any test code -- KATA fixture selection, inline-locator rule, ATC-identity rule, and import-alias requirements differ from standard Playwright conventions. Do NOT use for running suites (regression-testing), documenting TCs in Jira/Xray (test-documentation), onboarding a repo (project-discovery), or orchestrating sprint-wide testing (sprint-testing).
Analyze, prioritize, and document test cases in TMS (Jira/Xray) -- the bridge between manual QA and test automation. Use when creating Test/ATP/ATR artifacts, calculating ROI to choose which tests to automate, maintaining US-ATP-ATR-TC traceability, or repairing broken TMS links. Supports four scopes: module-driven (exhaustive module exploration), ticket-driven (QA-approved user story), bug-driven (regression TC for a closed bug), and ad-hoc/exploratory. Produces three outcomes per TC: Candidate (feeds test-automation), Manual (terminal), Deferred (terminal). Triggers on: document tests, create test cases in Jira/Xray, prioritize for automation, ROI analysis, which tests to automate, Candidate vs Manual, link ATP to ATR, fix TMS traceability, stage 4, turn this bug into a regression test. Do NOT use for writing test code (test-automation) or running suites (regression-testing).
Xray Cloud test management via `bun xray` CLI: create/list tests, manage test executions and plans, import JUnit/Cucumber/Xray JSON results, update run statuses, back up and restore projects, link defects. Triggers on: create a test in Xray, import test results to Xray, list Xray executions, update run status, backup Xray project, restore Xray tests, link defect to run, sync tests, Xray auth login. Do NOT use for: writing automated tests (test-automation); documenting test cases or ROI analysis (test-documentation); running CI regression suites (regression-testing); browser automation (playwright-cli).
