What problem does it solve?
Deferred visual testing layers after project milestones can stall without a re-evaluation of readiness. This skill provides a structured approach to validate those layers, run sequential readiness checks, and promote layers that meet criteria, updating CLAUDE.md and strategy docs accordingly.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Load and interpret the CLAUDE.md Visual Testing configuration, including top-level layer settings and per-layer prerequisites.
- Evaluate activation criteria using the readiness checklist, collect evidence, and determine whether to promote a layer.
- Orchestrate validation spikes via the arn-spark-visual-test-engineer agent in a safe, sequential manner.
- Update artifacts and docs (CLAUDE.md, strategy documents) to reflect promoted layers and validation results.
- Offer optional journey-based testing upgrade if automation is available, including generation of journey manifests and runners.
Quick Start
Evaluate the CLAUDE.md Visual Testing section to determine which deferred layers are ready for spike validation and potential promotion.
