Pipeline Customization

Layer 1: Coverage Analysis

L1 agents focus on:

  • Current test coverage map (which modules have tests, which don't)
  • Critical paths that lack coverage
  • Existing test patterns and conventions
  • Test infrastructure setup (frameworks, fixtures, mocks)

Layer 2: Test Writing

  • **Mode:** `bypassPermissions`
  • File ownership: each agent owns `tests/test_{module}*` files
  • DO NOT TOUCH: source code (tests only), other agents' test files
  • Follow existing test patterns (fixtures, naming, assertions)
  • Each agent:

1. Read source module to understand behavior 2. Identify untested edge cases and error paths 3. Write tests following existing patterns 4. Follow TDD red-green for each new test: prove it is RED before the implementation exists (for the right failure reason), then GREEN after. A test that was never red — or is empty, a placeholder, `assert True`, or unconditionally skipped — is rejected. 5. Run the authoritative gate per the Test Evidence Protocol (`team:evidence.md`): use the CI-pinned tool versions, provision integration dependencies (e.g. Postgres + DSN) so gated tests actually execute, treat any skip as `UNVERIFIED` (never a pass), and capture command + exit code + summary to `EVIDENCE.md`. 6. Commit: `test({module}): add missing tests for {description}`

**Toolkit integration:**

  • Check team:toolkit.md for "Test-Driven Development" entry
  • qa-test-architect designs the test strategy; domain engineers write module-specific tests

Layer 3: Test Quality Review

L3 agents verify:

  • Tests actually test behavior (not implementation details)
  • No test interdependence or shared mutable state
  • Edge cases covered (null, empty, boundary, error paths)
  • Test names describe the scenario being tested
  • **Execution is real, not narrated:** confirm via `EVIDENCE.md` that the suite actually ran (captured exit 0, no skips on the covered surface). Reviewing test descriptions is not a substitute for verifying execution. A green claim without captured evidence is a finding, not a pass.

Full Regression

Run the CI-equivalent authoritative gate with integration dependencies provisioned, per the Test Evidence Protocol (`team:evidence.md`). Report the parsed pytest summary (passed / skipped / failed) and the measured coverage (`--cov --cov-branch`). Any skipped test blocks a "pass" claim — resolve by provisioning the dependency or explicitly label the gap. Capture all output to `EVIDENCE.md`.

GSD Integration

When `.planning/` exists, L2 agents check test requirements from REQUIREMENTS.md. Test files follow GSD naming conventions.
