FAQPage Schema

How do I automate end-to-end QA testing before shipping a feature?▼

Automated end-to-end QA testing before shipping is handled by dispatching an independent QA subagent to validate the full feature flow. It applies a structured protocol with a tiered test scope, runbook checklist, and formal pass/fail reporting.

When do I need to dispatch a QA subagent for feature verification?▼

Dispatch a QA subagent for feature verification when non-trivial changes require Tier 3 validation. Complex feature rollouts, bug fixes, and configuration changes trigger this independent testing, while small edits use inline verification instead.

What is a tiered QA protocol for automated bug catching?▼

A tiered QA protocol assigns different validation depths based on change complexity. Small edits receive inline verification for quick sanity tests, whereas complex rollouts trigger an independent Tier 3 subagent for full end-to-end bug catching.

Does the QA gate handle rollback readiness and reporting?▼

The QA gate handles rollback readiness and reporting by fulfilling a structured protocol. It provides formal test checklists, clear pass/fail reporting formats, and verifies rollback readiness before features are delivered.

Can I use inline verification for small configuration changes?▼

You can use inline verification for small configuration changes and quick sanity tests. The QA gate automatically applies this lightweight check instead of dispatching a full Tier 3 subagent for non-trivial edits.
