PHASE 1: Analysis (Read-Only)

Thinking Mode

ultrathink

Use extended reasoning for:

• Analyzing test file structure and framework detection
• Planning execution order across tiers
• Diagnosing failure patterns and categorizing root causes
• Determining auto-fix feasibility vs manual intervention

Step 1: Validate & Parse Inputs

If qa-test-generate output provided:

1. Read the output directory structure
2. Identify config files (vitest.config.ts, playwright.config.ts, etc.)
3. Identify test files by tier (unit/, integration/, e2e/)
4. Extract test framework from config files

If test directory provided:

1. Scan directory for test files
2. Detect test framework from config files or file patterns
3. Classify tests into tiers by naming convention

If no input:
Use AskUserQuestion:

• "Where are your test files located?"
• "Which test tiers to run?" Options: "All", "Unit only", "Integration only", "E2E only"

Step 2: Detect Tech Stack

Read $JAAN_CONTEXT_DIR/tech.md for framework detection.

tech.md value	Test Runner	E2E Runner	Coverage Tool	Package Manager	Test Command Prefix
Node.js / TypeScript	Vitest / Jest	Playwright / Cypress	@vitest/coverage-v8 / istanbul	pnpm / npm / yarn	npx / pnpm exec
PHP	PHPUnit / Pest	Laravel Dusk / Codeception	PHPUnit coverage (Xdebug/PCOV)	composer	vendor/bin/
Go	go test (stdlib)	Rod / Chromedp	go test -cover (built-in)	go mod	go test

Fallback: If tech.md missing → detect from lockfiles (package-lock.json, composer.lock, go.sum) + config files (vitest.config.*, phpunit.xml, *_test.go) → AskUserQuestion if ambiguous.

Step 3: Scan Test Files by Tier

Scan per detected stack:

Node.js/TypeScript:

• Unit: *.test.{ts,tsx}, *.spec.{ts,tsx} in test/unit/ or __tests__/
• Integration: *.integration.test.*, *.int.test.* in test/integration/
• E2E: *.spec.{ts,tsx} in test/e2e/, e2e/, or tests/

PHP:

• Unit: *Test.php in tests/Unit/
• Integration: *Test.php in tests/Feature/
• E2E: *Test.php in tests/Browser/

Go:

• Unit: *_test.go in package directories (no build tags)
• Integration: *_test.go with //go:build integration tag
• E2E: *_test.go with //go:build e2e tag

Present file counts per tier.

Step 4: Pre-Execution Health Checks

Run stack-aware health checks before execution:

Check	Node.js	PHP	Go
Dependencies installed	node_modules/ exists	vendor/ exists	go.sum exists
ORM client generated	Prisma: npx prisma generate	Eloquent: migrations run	sqlc: sqlc generate
Test env file	.env.test or .env.testing	.env.testing	_test build tag
E2E server	webServer config in playwright	artisan serve	custom server

Reference: See ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/extending/qa-test-run-reference.md section "Health Check Matrix" for per-stack detailed checks and fix commands.

If any check fails → report issue and offer auto-fix (Step 6).

Step 5: Build Execution Plan

Construct commands per tier based on detected stack and framework:

Node.js/TypeScript:

• Unit: npx vitest run --workspace=unit --reporter=json
• Integration: npx vitest run --workspace=integration --reporter=json
• E2E: npx playwright test --reporter=json

PHP:

• Unit: vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite=unit --log-junit=results.xml
• Integration: vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite=feature --log-junit=results.xml
• E2E: vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite=browser --log-junit=results.xml

Go:

• Unit: go test ./... -json -cover
• Integration: go test ./... -json -cover -tags=integration
• E2E: go test ./... -json -tags=e2e

Reference: See ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/extending/qa-test-run-reference.md section "Multi-Stack Test Commands" for full command tables with flags, environment variables, and framework-specific options.

Present execution plan with estimated test counts per tier.

HARD STOP -- Human Review Check

Show complete analysis and execution plan:

TEST EXECUTION PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------
Stack:              {detected_stack}
Test Runner:        {detected_runner}
Coverage Tool:      {detected_coverage}
Package Manager:    {detected_pm}

Health Checks:      {pass_count}/{total} passed
  {list_of_checks_with_status}

Tests Found:
  Unit:             {count} files ({scenario_count} tests)
  Integration:      {count} files ({scenario_count} tests)
  E2E:              {count} files ({scenario_count} tests)

Execution Order:    unit → integration → E2E
Tier Filter:        {all|unit|integration|e2e}

{health_check_issues_if_any}

Use AskUserQuestion:

• Question: "Proceed with test execution?"
• Header: "Run Tests"
• Options:
  • "Yes" -- Execute tests as planned
  • "No" -- Cancel
  • "Edit" -- Change tier filter or fix health issues first

Do NOT proceed to Phase 2 without explicit approval.

---

PHASE 2: Execution (Write Phase)

Step 6: Auto-Fix Simple Issues

Before running tests, attempt to fix common issues (stack-aware):

Node.js:

• Generate Prisma client: npx prisma generate
• Create .env.test from .env.example
• Fix import paths for moved test files

PHP:

• Run composer dump-autoload
• Create .env.testing from .env.example
• Run pending migrations: php artisan migrate --env=testing

Go:

• Run go generate ./...
• Verify test build tags are correct
• Run go mod tidy

For environment values (DB URLs, API keys), use AskUserQuestion to get actual values from the user -- never guess or use placeholders.

Reference: See ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/extending/qa-test-run-reference.md section "Auto-Fix Procedures" for per-stack step-by-step procedures.

Step 7: Execute Tests Sequentially

Run tests in order: unit → integration → E2E

For each tier:

1. Run the test command with JSON/XML reporter for reliable parsing
2. Capture stdout, stderr, and exit code
3. Parse results into structured format
4. Record pass/fail/skip counts
5. If failures detected → proceed to Step 8 (diagnose) before next tier

Important: Use --reporter=json (Vitest), --reporter=json (Playwright), --log-junit (PHPUnit), or -json (Go) for machine-parseable output. Never rely on text output parsing.

Step 8: Diagnose Failures

Categorize each failure into generic categories:

Category	Auto-Fix	Examples
Import/Module resolution	Yes	Missing modules, wrong paths, autoload issues
ORM/DB client generation	Yes	Prisma not generated, Eloquent not migrated, sqlc stale
Environment configuration	Yes (ask value)	Missing env vars, wrong DB URLs
Assertion failures	No (manual)	Business logic mismatches
Timeout/Async errors	Suggest fix	Slow operations, missing await, goroutine leaks
Database/State errors	Suggest fix	Missing migrations, seed data, connection refused
Mock/Fixture errors	Suggest fix	Stale snapshots, missing handlers, mock mismatches

Reference: See ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/extending/qa-test-run-reference.md section "Error Pattern Detection" for per-stack regex patterns to identify each category.

For auto-fixable categories: apply fix and mark for re-run.
For manual categories: collect diagnostic info for the report.

Step 9: Re-Run Failed Tests

After auto-fixes, selectively re-run only failed tests:

Node.js (Vitest): npx vitest run --reporter=json {failed_test_files}
Node.js (Playwright): npx playwright test --reporter=json {failed_spec_files}
PHP (PHPUnit): vendor/bin/phpunit --filter="{FailedTestName}"
Go: go test -json -run "TestName" ./package/...

Reference: See ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/extending/qa-test-run-reference.md section "Selective Re-Run Commands" for per-framework re-run flags and options.

Track which tests were fixed by auto-fix vs still failing.

Step 10: Parse Coverage

Parse coverage output per stack:

Node.js: Istanbul/v8 JSON from coverage/coverage-summary.json
PHP: PHPUnit Clover XML from coverage.xml or build/logs/clover.xml
Go: go test -coverprofile=coverage.out → parse with go tool cover

Extract:

• Line coverage percentage
• Branch coverage percentage (where available)
• Uncovered files and functions
• Coverage delta from previous run (if baseline exists)

Reference: See ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/extending/qa-test-run-reference.md section "Coverage Parsing Rules" for per-stack parsing patterns and output formats.

Step 11: Generate Report

Compile results into structured report:

11.1 Generate Output Metadata

source "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/lib/id-generator.sh"
SUBDOMAIN_DIR="$JAAN_OUTPUTS_DIR/qa/test-run"
mkdir -p "$SUBDOMAIN_DIR"
NEXT_ID=$(generate_next_id "$SUBDOMAIN_DIR")

Generate slug from test directory or project name (lowercase-kebab-case, max 50 chars).

11.2 Generate Executive Summary

Test execution for {project_name}: {total_tests} tests across {tier_count} tiers.
{pass_count} passed, {fail_count} failed, {skip_count} skipped.
{auto_fix_count} failures auto-fixed. Coverage: {line_pct}% line, {branch_pct}% branch.

11.3 Show Preview

OUTPUT PREVIEW
-------------------------------------------------------------
ID:     {NEXT_ID}
Folder: $JAAN_OUTPUTS_DIR/qa/test-run/{NEXT_ID}-{slug}/

Results:
  Unit:        {pass}/{total} passed ({coverage}% coverage)
  Integration: {pass}/{total} passed ({coverage}% coverage)
  E2E:         {pass}/{total} passed

Auto-Fixes Applied: {count}
Remaining Failures: {count}

Use AskUserQuestion:

• Question: "Write test execution report?"
• Header: "Write Report"
• Options:
  • "Yes" -- Write report to output
  • "No" -- Cancel
  • "Refine" -- Make adjustments first

Step 12: Write Output Files

If approved:

12.1 Create Folder

OUTPUT_FOLDER="$JAAN_OUTPUTS_DIR/qa/test-run/${NEXT_ID}-${slug}"
mkdir -p "$OUTPUT_FOLDER"

12.2 Write Main Document

Path: $OUTPUT_FOLDER/${NEXT_ID}-${slug}.md

Use template from: $JAAN_TEMPLATES_DIR/jaan-to:qa-test-run.template.md

Fill sections:

• Title, Executive Summary
• Test Execution Results (per tier with pass/fail/skip counts)
• Coverage Report (line, branch, uncovered functions)
• Failure Analysis (categorized with diagnostics)
• Auto-Fix Summary (what was fixed, how)
• Suggested Fixes (for manual failures)
• Coverage Gaps (uncovered areas)
• Next Steps
• Metadata

12.3 Update Index

source "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/lib/index-updater.sh"
add_to_index \
  "$SUBDOMAIN_DIR/README.md" \
  "$NEXT_ID" \
  "${NEXT_ID}-${slug}" \
  "{Project Name} Test Execution" \
  "{Executive Summary}"

12.4 Confirm Completion

TEST EXECUTION COMPLETE
-------------------------------------------------------------
ID:          {NEXT_ID}
Folder:      $JAAN_OUTPUTS_DIR/qa/test-run/{NEXT_ID}-{slug}/
Index:       Updated $JAAN_OUTPUTS_DIR/qa/test-run/README.md

Results:
  Total:       {total_tests} tests
  Passed:      {pass_count}
  Failed:      {fail_count}
  Skipped:     {skip_count}
  Auto-Fixed:  {auto_fix_count}

Coverage:
  Line:        {line_pct}%
  Branch:      {branch_pct}%

Step 13: Suggest Next Actions

Test execution complete!

Next Steps:

• Review failure diagnostics in the report
• Fix remaining assertion failures manually
• Re-run with /jaan-to:qa-test-run {output-path} --all after fixes
• Use /jaan-to:qa-test-generate to generate tests for uncovered areas
• See the report for detailed coverage gaps and suggested improvements

Step 14: Capture Feedback

Use AskUserQuestion:

• Question: "How did the test execution turn out?"
• Header: "Feedback"
• Options:
  • "Perfect!" -- Done
  • "Needs fixes" -- What should I improve?
  • "Learn from this" -- Capture a lesson for future runs

If "Learn from this": Run /jaan-to:learn-add qa-test-run "{feedback}"
