Step 1: Gather Context

If project context is provided in arguments, use it. Otherwise:

1. Look for existing documentation:

   • Requirements documents
   • Architecture documents
   • Existing test plans
   • Risk assessments

2. Identify project characteristics:

   • Technology stack (.NET, React, etc.)
   • Architecture style (monolith, microservices)
   • Deployment model (cloud, on-prem)
   • Team size and structure

Step 2: Load Skills

Invoke the test-strategy:test-strategy-planning skill for IEEE 829 templates and guidance.

Step 3: Spawn Strategy Agent

[Gathered context]

Requirements:
1. Follow IEEE 829 structure
2. Include specific test level recommendations
3. Define measurable entry/exit criteria
4. Address identified risks
5. Recommend appropriate tools for the tech stack

Step 4: Review and Validate

Ensure the strategy includes:

• Clear scope definition (in/out)
• Test objectives tied to business goals
• Test levels with responsibilities
• Test types appropriate for the project
• Risk-based prioritization
• Environment requirements
• Entry/exit criteria
• Defect management process
• Deliverables and schedule
• Roles and responsibilities

Step 5: Output

Save the strategy document and report location:

## Test Strategy Created

**File**: [path to strategy document]

**Summary**:
- Scope: [brief scope]
- Test Levels: [unit, integration, E2E]
- Key Risks: [top 3 risks addressed]
- Tools: [recommended stack]

**Next Steps**:
1. Review strategy with stakeholders
2. Set up test environments
3. Begin test case design
