SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Generate unit and end-to-end tests from a completed phase to ensure alignment with UAT criteria and implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generate unit and E2E tests from phase artifacts such as SUMMARY.md, CONTEXT.md, and VERIFICATION.md.
  • Classify tests into unit, browser-based E2E, or Skip; present a test plan for user approval.
  • Produce commit-ready test files with standardized messages (e.g. test(phase-{N}): add unit and E2E tests from add-tests command).

Quick Start

Provide the phase artifacts and trigger the add-tests workflow to generate unit and E2E tests.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate unit and E2E tests from phase specifications?▼

To generate unit and E2E tests from phase specifications, provide phase artifacts like SUMMARY.md, CONTEXT.md, and VERIFICATION.md to trigger an automated workflow that classifies tests and produces a test plan for approval.

What is the RED-GREEN test plan workflow for automated testing?▼

The RED-GREEN test plan workflow analyzes your codebase to propose failing tests initially, then emits commit-ready test files with standardized messages to ensure implementation meets UAT criteria after the tests pass.

How do I classify tests into unit, browser-based E2E, or skip categories?▼

Test classification into unit, browser-based E2E, or skip categories happens automatically during the test plan generation phase, where the workflow analyzes your phase artifacts and codebase to present a categorized plan for user approval.

Do I need SUMMARY.md, CONTEXT.md, and VERIFICATION.md to generate tests?▼

Yes, SUMMARY.md, CONTEXT.md, and VERIFICATION.md are required phase artifacts. The test generation workflow applies specifically to phases containing these files to ensure alignment with UAT criteria and implementation.

Can I commit generated test files with standardized messages automatically?▼

Yes, the workflow emits committed test files with standardized messages like 'test(phase-{N}): add unit and E2E tests from add-tests command' after you approve the generated test plan.

What's the best way to ensure implementation meets UAT criteria through testing?▼

The best way to ensure implementation meets UAT criteria is generating unit and E2E tests directly from completed phase specifications, analyzing the codebase to produce a RED-GREEN test plan that validates implementation alignment.
