SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the need for consistent and thorough test planning and system architecture review, ensuring that projects are testable from the Solutioning phase and well-planned during Implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dual-Mode Workflow: Operates in two distinct modes: system-level testability review during Solutioning, or epic-level test planning during Implementation.
  • Automatic Mode Detection: Intelligently switches between modes based on the current project phase.
  • Use Case: For a new feature, it can first assess the overall testability of the proposed architecture and then, once the feature is defined as an epic, generate a detailed test plan for its implementation.

Quick Start

Execute the testarch-test-design skill to perform a system-level testability review for the current project phase.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate test planning and architecture review for new features?

Automated test planning and architecture review use a dual-mode workflow that assesses system-level testability during solutioning and generates epic-level test plans during implementation. Mode detection switches automatically based on the current project phase.

When do I need a system-level testability review for my project?

A system-level testability review is needed during the solutioning phase to evaluate proposed architecture. It ensures the design is fundamentally testable before features are broken down into epics for the implementation phase.

How does automatic mode detection work for test planning workflows?

Automatic mode detection works by identifying the current project phase to switch between system-level architecture review and epic-level test planning. This ensures the workflow matches the appropriate stage of software development without manual configuration.

Can I use one workflow for both solutioning phase architecture review and implementation test planning?

Yes, you can use a single dual-mode workflow that supports both solutioning phase architecture review and implementation phase test planning. It automatically adjusts its processing logic to deliver comprehensive test coverage and architectural soundness.

What is the best way to ensure comprehensive test coverage during epic implementation?

The best way to ensure comprehensive test coverage during epic implementation is to generate detailed epic-level test plans. Building on an earlier system-level testability review guarantees the architecture supports the required testing workflows.

Does this test planning workflow require any external dependencies?

No, this test planning and architecture review workflow operates without any external dependencies. It functions independently to facilitate phase-based mode detection and testability assessment.
