SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates an end-to-end QA cycling workflow that tests, verifies, and fixes software until the defined quality goal is met, reducing manual churn and accelerating delivery.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Autonomous QA cycles through verification steps: qa-tester execution, architect diagnosis, and executor fixes, repeating until success.
  • Supports common goals such as tests, builds, lint, typecheck, or custom objectives, with observable progress and clear exit conditions.
  • Provides deterministic state tracking and role-based handoffs to ensure guardrails and traceability during the QA lifecycle.

Quick Start

To start, provide a goal to the ULTRAQA cycle, for example "/ultraqa --tests".

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate QA workflows to run tests, diagnose failures, and apply fixes until passing?

Autonomous QA cycling automates an end-to-end workflow that iterates through testing, diagnosing, and fixing until quality goals are met. It enforces a deterministic cycle with defined roles and state tracking to reduce manual churn.

What is autonomous QA cycling and how does it handle software verification?

Autonomous QA cycling is an automated workflow that iterates through testing, diagnosing, and fixing software until defined quality goals are met. It uses role-based handoffs between a tester, architect, and executor to ensure traceability.

Can I use automated QA cycling for lint, typecheck, and custom build goals?

Yes, automated QA cycling supports common verification goals including tests, builds, lint, and typecheck. You can also define custom objectives, with observable progress and clear exit conditions ensuring the cycle stops upon success.

What's the best way to structure CI testing workflows with deterministic state tracking?

Using a deterministic QA cycle with role-based handoffs provides structured state tracking for CI testing workflows. This approach enforces clear guardrails and traceability, iterating through verification steps until quality goals are achieved.

Do I need predefined roles to automate end-to-end testing and fixing workflows?

Yes, the autonomous QA workflow relies on defined roles—a qa-tester, architect, and executor—to structure the testing, diagnosing, and fixing phases. These role-based handoffs enforce guardrails and ensure progress visibility.
