Test Architect Workflows

This directory houses the per-command workflows used by the Test Architect agent (tea). Each workflow wraps the standalone instructions that used to live under testarch/ so they can run through the standard BMAD workflow runner.

Available workflows

• framework – scaffolds Playwright/Cypress harnesses.
• atdd – generates failing acceptance tests before coding.
• automate – expands regression coverage after implementation.
• ci – bootstraps CI/CD pipelines aligned with TEA practices.
• test-design – combines risk assessment and coverage planning.
• trace – maps requirements to implemented automated tests.
• nfr-assess – evaluates non-functional requirements.
• gate – records the release decision in the gate file.
• test-review – reviews test quality using knowledge base patterns and generates quality score.

Each subdirectory contains:

• README.md – comprehensive workflow documentation with usage, inputs, outputs, and integration notes.
• instructions.md – detailed workflow steps in pure markdown v4.0 format.
• workflow.yaml – metadata, variables, and configuration for BMAD workflow runner.
• checklist.md – validation checklist for quality assurance and completeness verification.
• template.md – output template for workflow deliverables (where applicable).

The TEA agent now invokes these workflows via run-workflow rather than executing instruction files directly.
