risk-based-tester

To extract a risk-based test subset from a QA matrix, identify and select high-risk and high-frequency test scenarios. This targets critical validation paths to eliminate redundant testing and provide faster feedback.

Risk-based testing prioritizes high-impact scenarios from the QA matrix for targeted validation. Use this approach for regression cycles, hotfix releases, and feature validations to reduce redundant testing while maintaining coverage.

Append new validation results to QA_MATRIX.md by using the provided scaffold script and template. This ensures selected tests remain aligned with the matrix and maintains an auditable, dated risk-based set for iterative updates.

Yes, you can use the scaffold script to generate and append a dated risk-based test set for hotfix releases. The script enforces guardrails to keep the selected tests aligned with the existing QA matrix.

The limitation of a minimal test subset is its strict alignment to the existing QA_MATRIX.md structure. It focuses only on high-risk and high-frequency scenarios, which may bypass lower-priority edge cases outside the matrix guardrails.

Yes, risk-based test selection requires an existing QA matrix located at .documents/qa/QA_MATRIX.md. The tool identifies high-impact scenarios from this file to build a targeted, minimal validation subset.
