| Failure | Root Cause | Detection | Recovery |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flaky test | Race condition | Intermittent CI fails | Use -race, fix shared state |
| Slow tests | No mocking | Build time metrics | Mock external deps |
| Low coverage | Missing edge cases | Coverage report | Add table test cases |
