Web Testing Skill

Output style: Follow process/development-protocols/communication-standards.md — answer-first, plain language, no unexplained jargon, TL;DR on long responses.

Comprehensive web testing: unit, integration, E2E, load, security, visual regression, accessibility.

Quick Start

npx vitest run                    # Unit tests
npx playwright test               # E2E tests
npx playwright test --ui          # E2E with UI
k6 run load-test.js               # Load tests
npx @axe-core/cli https://example.com  # Accessibility
npx lighthouse https://example.com     # Performance

  test:
    steps:
      - run: pnpm run test:unit      # Gate 1: Fast fail
      - run: pnpm run test:e2e       # Gate 2: After unit pass
      - run: pnpm run test:a11y      # Accessibility
