What problem does it solve? Coordinating a multi-person QA team through a sprint or regression program requires constant decisions about who tests what, whether the team is on schedule, and how to respond when blockers or defects appear. This Skill provides a structured five-phase workflow (Plan, Resource Allocate, Monitor, Escalate, Report) aligned to ISTQB CTAL-TM and IEEE 29119-3 so test leads can manage capacity, SLAs, and triage consistently instead of improvising. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Capacity Planning & Skills Matrix: Forecast available hours against test workload, build a skills matrix by specialty and seniority, and detect over-allocation before the sprint starts. - Real-Time Execution Monitoring: Track pass rate, progress vs forecast, blocker queues, and SLA compliance (blocker response <2min, triage <30min, high-severity fix <4h) on a live dashboard. - Severity-Based Issue Triage: Classify findings as Bug, Defect, or Improvement, assign severity via an impact × reproducibility matrix, route to the right assignee, and escalate SLA breaches. - Use Case: A QA lead managing 10 testers and 500 regression cases over 2 days uses the skill to prioritize scope to fit 182 available hours, build a parallel execution DAG, monitor progress, and produce an end-of-sprint report with velocity, defect escape rate, and SLA compliance. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to manage your QA team for the current sprint by providing your team roster, test case count, and available hours so it can run the five-phase test management workflow.
