SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Backend deliverables often introduce subtle API contracts, auth flows, and data persistence issues that must be verified beyond unit tests. This skill provides a structured, backend-focused QA pass to validate API behavior, security boundaries, and data integrity across services.

Core Features & Use Cases

API Contract Validation
Auth/Authz + Security Controls
Data Integrity + Persistence
Backend Performance/Operational Quality
Backend Code Quality/Standards

Quick Start

Run the qa-backend pass after the base qa step to validate API behavior, auth checks, and data integrity against the SPEC.

FAQPage Schema

How do I validate API contracts and auth checks before merging backend changes?▼

Backend QA validation checks API behavior, security boundaries, and data integrity against your SPEC to catch contract, auth, and persistence issues before merge. It runs as a structured pass after your base QA step.

What is backend QA testing for API routes and data persistence?▼

Backend QA testing is a structured validation pass that verifies API contracts, service logic, schemas, and persistence layers. It ensures backend deliverables meet security and data integrity standards beyond standard unit tests.

How do I test backend security boundaries and auth flows in my service?▼

You test backend security boundaries by running a QA pass that validates auth and authz controls across your API routes and service logic. It enforces backend-specific security checks and evidence requirements against the governing base contract.

When do I need a dedicated backend QA pass for API and schema changes?▼

You need a dedicated backend QA pass when deliverables affect API routes, service logic, schemas, or persistence layers. It catches subtle API contract and data integrity issues that standard unit tests often miss during backend deployments.

Does this backend QA approach work for validating data integrity during service deployments?▼

Yes, backend QA applies to changes across backend features and deployments, validating data integrity and persistence layers. It enforces backend-specific standards and evidence requirements to satisfy the governing base QA contract.
