What problem does it solve?
Help teams evaluate non-functional requirements (performance, security, reliability, maintainability) using existing evidence to determine gate readiness and produce actionable remediation guidance. The workflow enforces deterministic PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL classifications and documents evidence sources so decisions are traceable and audit-ready.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Tri-modal step-file workflow: create, validate, and edit modes with explicit progress saving and resume support.
- Parallelizable domain assessments: orchestrates subagents for security, performance, reliability, and scalability, then aggregates outputs into an executive summary.
- Deterministic rules & templates: threshold-driven evaluation, checklist validation, and gate-ready YAML snippet generation for release decisions.
- Use Case: Run during release preparation to validate that performance SLAs, security scans, reliability metrics, and maintainability signals meet defined thresholds before gating a deployment.
Quick Start
Run the bmad-testarch-nfr workflow to evaluate performance, security, reliability, and maintainability using available evidence and generate an NFR assessment report.
