regimen-test

Automate instruction-driven workflow verification by placing markdown files in a .regimen/ directory and invoking a test runner that executes listed commands, validates outputs against prose, and reports results for CI regression checks.

A regimen file is a markdown document in the .regimen/ directory containing sequential steps. Step validation works by executing each listed command, comparing actual outputs to prose descriptions, and capturing mismatches as failures for debugging.

Yes, you can set timeout limits for individual commands during automated regression testing. The regimen parser reads optional timeout hints from each step in the markdown file and the runner respects them during execution.

Run step-by-step command validation locally by placing a regimen file with listed commands and prose expectations in the .regimen/ folder, then invoking the test runner to walk through and verify every step.

Yes, regimen testing handles error scenarios and retries failed steps where possible. The runner executes commands from the .regimen/*.md files, captures failures for debugging, and respects timeout hints during the validation process.

Use a regimen test runner instead of standard scripts when you need to validate instruction-driven workflows that require comparing command outputs against prose descriptions across multiple steps, timeouts, and error scenarios.
