SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Audits manual test scripts in tests/manual/ to ensure harness adoption, golden-file completeness, fail-fast behavior, config sourcing, template compliance, and idempotency.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Verifies presence and usage of a shared test harness (test_harness.sh) and integrated audit workflow.
  • Checks for golden-file coverage, template conformance, and idempotent execution across manual tests.
  • Produces a formal quality report with a scoring rubric to guide improvements in test quality.

Quick Start

Run this auditor to generate the 636-manual-test-quality.md report for the repository.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit manual test scripts for QA governance and idempotency?

The auditor checks your tests/manual directory for shared test harness adoption, golden-file completeness, fail-fast behavior, config sourcing, template compliance, and idempotent execution to ensure robust QA governance.

What does a manual test quality audit report include?

A manual test quality audit report includes severity-based findings and a final scoring rubric, guiding improvements in harness adoption, golden-file completeness, and idempotent execution across your test suite.

Does the manual test auditor require a specific test harness?

The auditor verifies the presence and usage of a shared test harness named test_harness.sh, but it evaluates any manual test suite located in the tests/manual directory for harness adoption.

Can I check golden-file coverage and template conformance for manual tests?

Yes, you can check golden-file coverage and template conformance by running this auditor on your manual tests, which validates completeness and compliance across the entire tests/manual suite.

What is the best way to evaluate fail-fast behavior in manual test suites?

The best way to evaluate fail-fast behavior is to use an auditing tool that scans your manual tests for config sourcing and template compliance, outputting a structured report with severity-based findings.

When should I audit idempotent execution across manual tests?

You should audit idempotent execution when you need to verify QA governance and ensure your manual tests produce consistent, repeatable results without side effects across multiple runs.
