dev-validate

What problem does it solve?

Ensures implemented user stories meet acceptance criteria by automating unit, integration, and browser end-to-end validation, and by combining quality and security pre-checks so releases are safe and verifiable.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Quality & Security Pre-checks: Runs quality and security analysis and records Quality Score and Security Score in the validation report to enforce gates before production.
• Automated Test Execution: Executes unit and integration test suites, collects coverage metrics, and maps failing tests to user stories for targeted fixes.
• Interactive E2E Browser Validation: When browser automation tools are available, exercises critical-path flows in a browser, captures screenshots, console logs, and network evidence for failed flows.
• Reporting & Decisioning: Produces a structured validation report and sprint review artifacts, updates test maps and status files, and supports an iterative fix-and-retest cycle until approval criteria are met.

Quick Start

Run the dev-validate workflow to execute automated tests, perform E2E browser checks if available, and generate the specs/08-validation.md validation report.
