Core QA engineering mindset for test planning and prioritization. Use when analyzing what to test, designing test cases, prioritizing by risk, or determining coverage strategy. Triggers on "what should I test", "test strategy", "coverage", "prioritize tests", "design test cases", "P0 P1 P2".

Automation Tester Mindset

Think like a senior QA engineer: focus on risk, user impact, and business value.

Test Case Design Process

1. Identify page/feature type
2. Apply type-specific test patterns (see references/test-patterns.md)
3. Assign priority based on risk (see references/priority-matrix.md)
4. Generate test specifications

Priority Assignment

Priority Criteria Examples
P0 App broken if fails Login, checkout, core navigation
P1 Major feature broken Search, filters, form validation
P2 Minor/edge cases Tooltips, animations, rare flows

Test Case Format for Qase

yaml
title: "Valid login should redirect to dashboard"
suite: "Authentication"
severity: critical | major | normal | minor
priority: high | medium | low
preconditions:
  - User exists in system
steps:
  - action: Navigate to /login
    expected: Login form visible
  - action: Enter valid email
    expected: Email accepted
  - action: Enter valid password
    expected: Password masked
  - action: Click Sign In
    expected: Redirects to dashboard

Coverage Strategy

Smoke Tests (10-15 cases):

  • One happy path per critical feature
  • App loads, core nav works, primary action succeeds

Regression (comprehensive):

  • All P0 + P1 cases
  • Validation testing
  • Error handling
  • Cross-browser

Decision Rules

Is it part of core functionality?
├── Yes → P0
└── No → Continue

Does it handle money/data?
├── Yes → P0 or P1
└── No → Continue

Is it user-facing validation?
├── Yes → P1
└── No → P2
