SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill checks whether search and filter controls actually narrow visible results to matching rows, catching broken filtering logic before it reaches users.

Core Features & Use Cases

Semantic filter validation: Applies a real value from the first visible row and confirms every remaining row matches that term.
Search correctness checks: Verifies that search inputs update results accurately and do not return unrelated rows.
Reset and empty-state coverage: Confirms filters can be cleared cleanly and that no-results states appear when a query should match nothing.
Use case: Validate a data table or admin grid after implementing dropdown filters, global search, or debounced search so users only see relevant records.

Quick Start

Run the qa-test-filter-accuracy skill on the current page to apply a real filter or search term, verify every visible result matches, and report any mismatch or reset failure.

FAQPage Schema

How do I test data table filters to ensure search results are accurate?▼

Testing data table filters requires applying a real value from the visible rows, then probing the DOM to confirm every remaining row matches that term. This validates that search inputs update results accurately and do not return unrelated rows.

How do I verify empty states and filter reset behavior in web applications?▼

Verifying empty states and filter resets requires applying a query that should match nothing, confirming the no-results state appears, and checking that filters can be cleared cleanly. This ensures reset functionality removes all active filters properly.

Can I validate dropdown filters and global search on admin grids?▼

Yes, you can validate dropdown filters and global search on admin grids by targeting interactive tables and list views. The process applies a real filter value, counts visible rows, and validates result text to catch broken filtering logic.

What is DOM probing for filter validation in interactive tables?▼

DOM probing for filter validation is the process of inspecting live web page elements to count visible rows and validate result text against an applied search term. It detects incorrect filtering behavior by comparing visible results directly.

Why does my data table search return unrelated rows after applying a filter?▼

Data table search returns unrelated rows when filtering logic is broken or debounced search fails to update results accurately. Comparing visible results against the applied term through live DOM probing identifies mismatches before users encounter them.
