## Description

This skill should be used when establishing comprehensive QA testing processes for any software project. Use when creating test strategies, writing test cases following Google Testing Standards, executing test plans, tracking bugs with P0-P4 classification, calculating quality metrics, or generating progress reports. Includes autonomous execution capability via master prompts and complete documentation templates for third-party QA team handoffs. Implements OWASP security testing and achieves 90% coverage targets.

# QA Expert

Establish world-class QA testing processes for any software project using proven methodologies from Google Testing Standards and OWASP security best practices.

## When to Use This Skill

Trigger this skill when:
- Setting up QA infrastructure for a new or existing project
- Writing standardized test cases (AAA pattern compliance)
- Executing comprehensive test plans with progress tracking
- Implementing security testing (OWASP Top 10)
- Filing bugs with proper severity classification (P0-P4)
- Generating QA reports (daily summaries, weekly progress)
- Calculating quality metrics (pass rate, coverage, gates)
- Preparing QA documentation for third-party team handoffs
- Enabling autonomous LLM-driven test execution

## Quick Start

**One-command initialization**:
```bash
python scripts/init_qa_project.py <project-name> [output-directory]
```

**What gets created**:
- Directory structure (`tests/docs/`, `tests/e2e/`, `tests/fixtures/`)
- Tracking CSVs (`TEST-EXECUTION-TRACKING.csv`, `BUG-TRACKING-TEMPLATE.csv`)
- Documentation templates (`BASELINE-METRICS.md`, `WEEKLY-PROGRESS-REPORT.md`)
- Master QA Prompt for autonomous execution
- README with complete quickstart guide

**For autonomous execution** (recommended): See `references/master_qa_prompt.md` - single copy-paste command for 100x speedup.

## Core Capabilities

### 1. QA Project Initialization

Initialize complete QA infrastructure with all templates:

```bash
python scripts/init_qa_project.py <project-name> [output-directory]
```

Creates directory structure, tracking CSVs, documentation templates, and master prompt for autonomous execution.

**Use when**: Starting QA from scratch or migrating to structured QA process.

### 2. Test Case Writing

Write standardized, reproducible test cases following AAA pattern (Arrange-Act-Assert):
