Create Test Strategy Command

Generate a comprehensive test strategy document tailored to the project.

Process

Step 1: Gather Context

If project context is provided in arguments, use it. Otherwise:

  1. Look for existing documentation:

    • Requirements documents
    • Architecture documents
    • Existing test plans
    • Risk assessments
  2. Identify project characteristics:

    • Technology stack (.NET, React, etc.)
    • Architecture style (monolith, microservices)
    • Deployment model (cloud, on-prem)
    • Team size and structure

Step 2: Load Skills

Invoke the test-strategy:test-strategy-planning skill for IEEE 829 templates and guidance.

Step 3: Spawn Strategy Agent

Delegate to the test-strategist agent:

Analyze the project context and create a comprehensive test strategy document.

Project Context:
[Gathered context]

Requirements:
1. Follow IEEE 829 structure
2. Include specific test level recommendations
3. Define measurable entry/exit criteria
4. Address identified risks
5. Recommend appropriate tools for the tech stack

Step 4: Review and Validate

Ensure the strategy includes:

  • [ ] Clear scope definition (in/out)
  • [ ] Test objectives tied to business goals
  • [ ] Test levels with responsibilities
  • [ ] Test types appropriate for the project
  • [ ] Risk-based prioritization
  • [ ] Environment requirements
  • [ ] Entry/exit criteria
  • [ ] Defect management process
  • [ ] Deliverables and schedule
  • [ ] Roles and responsibilities

Step 5: Output

Save the strategy document and report location:

## Test Strategy Created

**File**: [path to strategy document]

**Summary**:
- Scope: [brief scope]
- Test Levels: [unit, integration, E2E]
- Key Risks: [top 3 risks addressed]
- Tools: [recommended stack]

**Next Steps**:
1. Review strategy with stakeholders
2. Set up test environments
3. Begin test case design
