Senior QA Engineer

Name: senior-qa
Author: borghei

Test automation, coverage analysis, and quality assurance patterns for React and Next.js applications. Generates Jest + React Testing Library unit test stubs, analyzes Istanbul/LCOV coverage for gaps, and scaffolds Playwright E2E suites for App Router and Pages Router projects.

Core Capabilities

Unit test generation — scan React/TypeScript components and emit Jest + RTL stubs (render, interaction, state, optional jest-axe a11y).
Coverage analysis — parse Istanbul/LCOV reports, identify gaps by severity, flag critical business-logic paths, and emit text/HTML/JSON recommendations.
E2E scaffolding — detect Next.js routes (dynamic segments, route groups, auth pages) and generate Playwright specs, Page Object Models, fixtures, and config.
Test strategy — the testing pyramid, coverage targets by code type, and test organization patterns.
Automation patterns — Page Object Model, data factories, MSW mocking, fixtures, and custom render utilities.
Quality practices — testable code design, AAA structure, test isolation, flaky-test elimination, and quality metrics.

When to Use

Setting up unit tests for new or existing React components.
Improving test coverage or preparing for release.
Setting up Playwright E2E tests for a Next.js project.
Configuring Jest thresholds or improving overall test quality.

Clarify First

Before generating tests, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume:

Test layer — unit (Jest+RTL) vs E2E (Playwright) (selects test_suite_generator vs e2e_test_scaffolder)
Source path — the components or Next.js routes to generate tests from (the scaffolder's input)
Coverage focus — happy path only vs interaction/state/a11y (jest-axe) (sets which test stubs are emitted)

Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact.

Tools

Tool	Purpose	Command
`test_suite_generator.py`	Generate Jest + RTL test stubs from React components	`python scripts/test_suite_generator.py src/components/ --output __tests__/`
`coverage_analyzer.py`	Analyze Istanbul/LCOV coverage and report gaps	`python scripts/coverage_analyzer.py coverage/coverage-final.json --threshold 80`
`e2e_test_scaffolder.py`	Scaffold Playwright E2E tests from Next.js routes	`python scripts/e2e_test_scaffolder.py src/app/ --output e2e/`

References

Load the reference that matches the task — keep this file lean and pull detail on demand:

references/qa-workflows-and-tools.md — quick start, the three tool overviews with sample output, the unit-test/coverage/E2E workflows, common pattern snippets (RTL queries, async, MSW, Playwright locators, jest thresholds), common commands, troubleshooting table, and success criteria. Read when running a workflow.
references/tool-cli-reference.md — full flag tables, examples, output formats, and generated artifacts for all three scripts. Read before running the scripts.
references/testing_strategies.md — the testing pyramid, testing types, coverage targets and thresholds, and test organization patterns. Read when designing test strategy.
references/test_automation_patterns.md — Page Object Model, data factories, fixture management, mocking strategies (MSW), and custom test utilities. Read when writing test code.
references/qa_best_practices.md — writing testable code, naming conventions, AAA pattern, test isolation, flaky-test debugging, and quality metrics. Read when improving test quality.

Scope & Limitations

This skill covers:

Unit test stub generation for React/TypeScript functional and class components using Jest and React Testing Library.
Coverage analysis and gap identification from Istanbul JSON and LCOV report formats.
E2E test scaffolding for Next.js App Router and Pages Router projects using Playwright.
Accessibility test generation via jest-axe integration.

This skill does NOT cover:

Backend API testing (see senior-backend for Express/Node.js testing patterns).
Performance or load testing (see senior-devops for infrastructure and performance tooling).
Visual regression testing or screenshot comparison workflows.
Mobile-native testing (React Native, Flutter) -- this skill targets web browser-based testing only.

Integration Points

Skill	Integration	Data Flow
`senior-frontend`	Generated test stubs align with component patterns from the frontend skill	Frontend components --> `test_suite_generator.py` --> test files
`senior-fullstack`	Code quality analyzer consumes the same coverage reports produced here	`coverage_analyzer.py` output --> fullstack quality dashboard
`senior-devops`	E2E test scaffolder generates CI-ready Playwright configs that plug into DevOps pipelines	`e2e_test_scaffolder.py` --> `playwright.config.ts` --> GitHub Actions workflow
`code-reviewer`	Coverage gaps feed directly into code review checklists for untested changes	`coverage_analyzer.py` gaps --> review checklist items
`tdd-guide`	TDD workflow references this skill's test generator for initial red-phase stub creation	TDD cycle --> `test_suite_generator.py --scan-only` --> write tests --> implement
`qa-browser-automation`	Page Object Models generated here are consumed by the browser automation skill for advanced E2E scenarios	`e2e_test_scaffolder.py --include-pom` --> POM classes --> browser automation flows
