Test Orchestrator Skill V3 - Pragmatic Testing

Phase-aware testing automatically determines which tests to run based on your project maturity—prototype, MVP, growth, or scale. The Skill applies adaptive quality gates and prioritizes high-value tests to guide ROI-based decisions without running unnecessary test suites.

Adaptive quality gates set minimum scores and required test counts proportional to your phase. Escape hatches let you quickly bypass or defer tests when needed, enabling pragmatic trade-offs between coverage and delivery velocity.

Regression testing is coordinated through phase-aware quality gates that scale test requirements with project maturity. The Skill generates tests tied to actual implementations and monitors overhead, reducing unnecessary regression test execution in early phases.

Adaptive testing decomposes requirements with phase-aware quality gates, automatically selecting regression tests relevant to your current maturity stage. This prevents over-testing in early phases while ensuring sufficient coverage as projects scale.

The Skill provides escape hatch commands to defer or bypass failing tests when needed, with task messaging and evaluation capabilities to communicate decisions. Auto-simplification can reduce test complexity to unblock progress while maintaining pragmatic quality standards.

The Skill works with existing test implementations and adapts to your current project phase without requiring pre-built infrastructure. It coordinates testing requirements based on your actual implementations and maturity level.
