From 1cd9eaccc5a68eda6e3c0ec295d8e3d3a8a3a9b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Verkhovsky Date: Sat, 7 Mar 2026 02:38:42 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] test: add comprehensive workflow conversion test results - 14 test fixtures covering data and validate modes - Tested across Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku models - OLD format (yaml+md) vs NEW format (workflow.md) - Confirms zero regressions in conversion

/tmp/bmad-test/fixtures + # Then create 14 fixture YAML files (see fixture definitions in original session) + ``` + +2. **For each model** (Opus, Sonnet, Haiku): + - Set model: `/model opus`, `/model sonnet`, or `/model haiku` + - Spawn two parallel sub-agents with identical prompts (one for OLD format, one for NEW format) + - Each agent should: + - Read the complete workflow spec (OLD: two files; NEW: one file) + - Read all 14 fixture files + - Execute tests 01-09 in **data mode** (step 20) + - Execute tests 10-14 in **validate mode** (step 30) + - Report results in the specified format
