SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Verifies code changes quickly and reliably by executing builds, tests, and runtime checks inside an isolated tmux session to prevent host interference.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Isolated tmux verification: Runs in a dedicated tmux session to ensure clean, repeatable results.
  • Auto-detect build system: Detects the project's build system and executes the appropriate commands.
  • Scope-aware verification: Uses explicit ARGUMENTS or recent changes to determine what to verify and reports results.

Quick Start

Provide the scope or allow auto-detection of changes, then run tmux-qa to execute builds, tests, and runs in a separate tmux session.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run build and test verification in an isolated environment?

Isolated verification runs build, test, and runtime checks inside a dedicated tmux session to prevent host interference. This ensures clean, repeatable results by executing the appropriate commands end-to-end in a separate environment.

How do I automate end-to-end testing for code changes without manual intervention?

Automate end-to-end testing by inferring scope from explicit arguments or recent changes. The system auto-detects the project's build system and executes the appropriate build, test, and run workflows automatically in an isolated tmux environment.

Does tmux-based verification work with different build systems?

Yes, tmux-based verification works with varying build systems by auto-detecting the project configuration. It applies the appropriate commands based on the detected build system to execute verification end-to-end in the isolated session.

What is the best way to ensure reproducible CI verification locally?

The best way to ensure reproducible CI verification locally is executing workflows inside a dedicated tmux session. This enforces deterministic outcomes with error handling and clear result delivery without host environment interference.

How do I specify the scope for automated test and build workflows?

Specify the scope for automated test and build workflows by providing explicit arguments. If arguments are not provided, the system automatically infers the verification scope from recent code changes.
