This skill should be used when establishing comprehensive QA testing processes for any software project. Use when creating test strategies, writing test cases following Google Testing Standards, executing test plans, tracking bugs with P0-P4 classification, calculating quality metrics, or generating progress reports. Includes autonomous execution capability via master prompts and complete documentation templates for third-party QA team handoffs. Implements OWASP security testing and achieves 90% coverage targets.

Establish world-class QA testing processes for any software project using proven methodologies from Google Testing Standards and OWASP security best practices.
When to Use This Skill
Trigger this skill when:
Setting up QA infrastructure for a new or existing project
Writing standardized test cases (AAA pattern compliance)
Executing comprehensive test plans with progress tracking
Implementing security testing (OWASP Top 10)
Filing bugs with proper severity classification (P0-P4)
1. python scripts/init_qa_project.py my-app ./
2. Fill in BASELINE-METRICS.md (document current state)
3. Write test cases using assets/templates/TEST-CASE-TEMPLATE.md
4. Copy master prompt from references/master_qa_prompt.md
5. Paste to LLM → autonomous execution begins
Pattern 2: LLM-Driven Testing (Autonomous)
1. Read references/master_qa_prompt.md
2. Copy the single master prompt (one paragraph)
3. Paste to LLM conversation
4. LLM executes all 342 test cases over 5 weeks
5. LLM updates tracking CSVs automatically
6. LLM generates weekly reports automatically
Pattern 3: Adding Security Testing
1. Read references/google_testing_standards.md (OWASP section)
2. Write TC-SEC-XXX test cases for each OWASP threat
3. Target 90% coverage (9/10 threats)
4. Document mitigations in test cases
Pattern 4: Third-Party QA Handoff
1. Ensure all templates populated
2. Verify BASELINE-METRICS.md complete
3. Package tests/docs/ folder
4. Include references/master_qa_prompt.md for autonomous execution
5. QA team can start immediately (Day 1 onboarding → 5 weeks testing)
Success Criteria
This skill is effective when:
✅ Test cases are reproducible by any engineer
✅ Quality gates objectively measured
✅ Bugs fully documented with repro steps
✅ Progress visible in real-time (CSV tracking)
✅ Autonomous execution enabled (LLM can execute full plan)
✅ Third-party QA teams can start testing immediately
