Create and fill .agents/qa-project-context.md with the project's tech stack, test frameworks, CI/CD pipeline, environments, quality goals, risk areas, team structure, and conventions. This is the one file every other QA skill reads first, so they skip redundant discovery and give context-aware advice. Use when: "set up QA context," "configure testing," "initialize project," first use of any QA skill. Not for: bootstrapping a brand-new project's QA end-to-end — use qa-start (which calls this skill as its first step). Related: qa-start, risk-based-testing, test-strategy, qa-metrics, playwright-automation.
Routing skill of last resort. Takes a plain-language QA situation and names the right 1-2 skills to use and in what order. Use ONLY when the request does not match any other skill's trigger phrases. Use when: "which skill should I use," "where do I start," "I'm not sure what to test," "/qa-do," or any vague QA situation that doesn't map to one skill. Not for: bootstrapping a brand-new project with no QA — use qa-start. Not for: capturing project setup/context — use qa-project-context. If the request clearly matches another skill, invoke that skill directly instead of routing through here. Related: qa-start, qa-project-context, test-strategy.
Use production telemetry as INPUT to design new tests. Covers OpenTelemetry integration with tests, trace-based assertions, log-informed test creation, production-error analysis for coverage gaps, and telemetry-driven test prioritization. Use when: "trace-based testing," "design tests from logs," "OpenTelemetry assertions," "production errors point to test gaps," "telemetry-driven testing." Not for: safe rollout techniques (flags, canary) during release — use testing-in-production. Not for: scheduled post-deploy probes — use synthetic-monitoring. Not for: triaging CI failures — use ai-bug-triage. Related: testing-in-production, synthetic-monitoring, qa-metrics, ai-bug-triage.
Move quality earlier in the development lifecycle. Covers dev/QA pairing patterns, Three Amigos sessions, TDD facilitation (Red-Green-Refactor), PR review checklists for testability, and Definition of Done with quality gates. Includes shift-left maturity model for team assessment. Use when: "shift left," "TDD," "dev-QA pairing," "definition of done," "testability," "quality culture," "QA in sprint planning." Not for: writing the unit tests themselves — use unit-testing; automated PR test-quality review at scale — use ai-qa-review; multi-quarter QA direction or roadmap — use test-strategy. Related: unit-testing, ai-qa-review, test-strategy.
Remove AI-generated patterns from QA reports, bug reports, test summaries, status updates, and quality communications. Detects and rewrites robotic test-result language, template-sounding status updates, inflated severity descriptions, and generic stakeholder reports — without inventing facts. Makes QA writing sound like a real engineer wrote it. Use when: "humanize report," "rewrite QA summary," "fix test report," "make this sound human," "clean up status update." Not for: general prose, blog, or marketing-copy cleanup — use the global humanizer skill. Not for: classifying or routing CI failures — use ai-bug-triage. Related: ai-bug-triage, qa-metrics, qa-dashboard, quality-postmortem.
Analyze escaped defects and test suite health through blameless postmortems. Covers bug pattern analysis, test suite health reviews, 5 Whys root cause analysis, process improvement cycles, and postmortem/retro meeting templates with action item tracking. Use when: "QA retro," "escaped bugs," "postmortem," "quality incident," "defect analysis," "improvement cycle." Not for: live release go/no-go decisions — use release-readiness. Not for ongoing metric dashboards — use qa-metrics. Not for reviewing existing test code quality — use ai-qa-review. Related: qa-metrics, test-reliability, test-strategy.
End-to-end testing of email-dependent flows — signup confirmation, password reset, magic-link login, OTP/MFA codes, and notification emails. Covers the capture-inbox decision tree (Mailpit, Mailosaur, MailSlurp, Ethereal), Playwright polling without fixed sleeps, regex extraction of links/OTPs from the email body, deterministic per-test addresses (plus-addressing, per-inbox), subject/from/header/link assertions, and SPF/DKIM/DMARC deliverability checks as a separate suite. Use when: "test the signup confirmation email," "password reset email test," "magic-link login test," "capture OTP from email," "Mailpit," "Mailosaur," "MailSlurp," "email arrives flaky in CI," "assert email subject/from/links." Not for: Sending transactional email from your app code, or API-only contract tests of an email provider — those are api-testing / app concerns. Email HTML rendering across clients (Outlook/Gmail dark mode) is out of scope (note it as a gap; use visual-testing or Litmus). Related: playwright-automation, api-testing, test-data-management, qa-project-context.
Measure and improve test coverage meaningfully. Covers Istanbul/V8/coverage.py configuration, coverage gap analysis by risk, coverage-as-ratchet in CI (never let it decrease), PR coverage diff checks, mutation testing for assertion quality, and distinguishing meaningful from vanity coverage. Use when: "code coverage," "coverage gap," "Istanbul," "coverage threshold," "coverage report," "branch coverage." Not for: writing the tests that raise coverage — use unit-testing; coverage as a tracked KPI trend over time — use qa-metrics. Related: unit-testing, ci-cd-integration, qa-metrics, ai-qa-review.
Runtime per-test healing with evidence: multi-attribute selector healing, environment-aware diagnosis, flake classification, quarantine management, and confidence-scored auto-repair. Goes beyond simple locator fallbacks to cover action-level healing, data healing, and observable repair workflows. Use when: "flaky test," "test stability," "self-healing locator," "broken locator recovery," "unreliable test," "quarantine flaky test." Not for: bulk regenerating selectors after a planned UI refactor — use selector-drift-recovery (this skill heals ONE test at runtime; that one rewrites many tests offline). Not for: classifying/clustering CI failures into bug reports — use ai-bug-triage. Related: playwright-automation, selector-drift-recovery, ci-cd-integration, qa-metrics, ai-bug-triage.
Author and maintain MANUAL and hybrid test cases and suites in TestRail, Xray (Jira), Zephyr Scale, and Qase. Covers test-case anatomy (title, preconditions, steps, expected results, test data), suite/section organization, bulk authoring from user stories and acceptance criteria, ambiguous-step linting, CSV/API import-export payloads per tool, requirement traceability and coverage gaps, review hygiene, and when a manual case should graduate to automation. Use when: "write a test case," "manual test case," "TestRail case," "Xray test," "Zephyr Scale case," "Qase case," "import CSV into TestRail," "lint these steps," "traceability report," "should this be automated." Not for: Generating automated TEST CODE — that is ai-test-generation. Sprint-level WHAT-to-test selection — that is test-planning. Related: ai-test-generation, test-planning, exploratory-testing, qa-project-context.
Validate release readiness with evidence-based go/no-go decisions. Covers go/no-go checklists, smoke test suite design, staged rollout validation, rollback criteria and procedures, and post-deployment verification. Ensures release confidence comes from data, not feelings. Use when: "release ready," "go/no-go," "smoke test," "release checklist," "rollback plan," "staged rollout," "canary deploy." Not for: safe-release techniques (flags, canary, dark launch) applied during the rollout itself — use testing-in-production; scheduled probes that run continuously after release — use synthetic-monitoring; designing new tests from prod telemetry — use observability-driven-testing. Related: testing-in-production, qa-metrics, ci-cd-integration, ai-system-testing.
Build and visualize QA dashboards and reports with Allure Report, Grafana, and ReportPortal. Covers test execution visualization, stakeholder-facing quality reports, trend/flakiness panels, release-readiness gates, alerting, and CI integration for automated report generation. Use when: "test dashboard," "Allure," "test report," "quality dashboard," "Grafana," "ReportPortal," "test results visualization." Not for: defining which KPIs to measure or how to interpret them — use qa-metrics (this skill builds the panels; qa-metrics decides what they should show). Related: qa-metrics, ci-cd-integration, ai-bug-triage.
