QA Execution Phases

Phase 1: Pre-flight Checks

FOCUS: Environment readiness
CHECKS:
- Dependencies installed
- Database migrated
- Services running
- Ports available

Phase 2: Quality Gates

FOCUS: Automated quality checks
GATES:
1. Static analysis (types, lint)
2. Unit tests (fast feedback)
3. Integration tests (component interaction)
4. E2E tests (user workflows)
5. Performance tests (if applicable)

Phase 3: Results Analysis

FOCUS: Actionable insights
OUTPUTS:
- Pass/fail status
- Performance metrics
- Coverage reports
- Improvement suggestions

Purpose

Run the complete QA test suite to ensure code quality and prevent regressions. ALL tests must pass before proceeding with any work.

Pre-execution Setup

1. Check Test Environment

   # Ensure dependencies are installed
   bun install
   
   # Verify test configuration exists
   test -f CLAUDE.md || echo "WARNING: CLAUDE.md not found"
   

2. Identify Test Commands

   • Look for CI/test commands in package.json
   • Check CLAUDE.md for specific QA instructions
   • Common commands: bun run ci, bun test, bun run test:e2e

Execution Protocol

Step 1: Run Full Test Suite

# Start with the CI command if available
bun run ci

# Or run individual test types
bun test                    # Unit tests
bun run test:integration    # Integration tests
bun run test:e2e           # End-to-end tests

Step 2: Monitor Results

• Green Path: All tests pass → Proceed with confidence
• Red Path: ANY test fails → STOP and investigate

Step 3: Failure Response Protocol

If any test fails:

1. Immediate Actions

   • STOP all other work
   • Capture full error output
   • Note which test(s) failed

2. Investigation

   # Re-run failed test in isolation
   bun test path/to/failed.test.ts
   
   # Run with verbose output
   bun test --verbose
   
   # Check for environment issues
   bun run lint
   bun run typecheck
   

3. Root Cause Analysis

   • Recent code changes that could cause failure
   • Missing dependencies or configuration
   • Environment-specific issues
   • Timing/async issues in tests

4. Fix and Verify

   • Apply minimal fix to resolve issue
   • Re-run specific failed test
   • Run full suite again to ensure no side effects

Common Issues and Solutions

| Issue | Solution | |-------|----------| | Dependency errors | Run bun install --force | | Type errors | Run bun run typecheck and fix | | Lint errors | Run bun run lint --fix | | Database issues | Check migrations: bun run db:migrate | | Port conflicts | Kill processes on required ports |

Success Criteria

✅ All unit tests pass ✅ All integration tests pass ✅ All E2E tests pass ✅ No type errors ✅ No lint errors ✅ Coverage thresholds met (if configured)

Important Rules

• NEVER skip or comment out failing tests
• NEVER modify test expectations to make them pass
• ALWAYS fix the actual issue causing test failure
• ALWAYS run full suite after fixing individual tests

Escape Hatches

When QA is Challenging:

1. Flaky Tests

   • "Test X is failing intermittently (3/5 runs)"
   • "Appears to be a timing/race condition"
   • Option A: Add retry logic
   • Option B: Increase timeouts
   • Option C: Refactor test for stability

2. Environment Issues

   • "Tests pass locally but fail in CI"
   • "Differences detected: [list specifics]"
   • "Recommend: [environment alignment steps]"

3. Performance Degradation

   • "Tests taking [X%] longer than baseline"
   • "Main bottlenecks: [list slow tests]"
   • Option A: Parallelize test execution
   • Option B: Optimize slow tests
   • Option C: Accept new baseline

4. Coverage Gaps

   • "Coverage below threshold in [components]"
   • "Critical paths without tests: [list]"
   • "Risk assessment: [Low/Medium/High]"
   • "Should I add tests before proceeding?"

5. Resource Constraints

   • "Test suite consuming excessive resources"
   • "Memory: [XGB], CPU: [Y%]"
   • "Consider: splitting suites or upgrading runner"
