Epic End Tests - NFR + Test Review + Quality Gate

Execute the end-of-epic test validation sequence for epic: "$ARGUMENTS"

This command orchestrates three critical BMAD Test Architect workflows in sequence:

  1. NFR Assessment - Validate non-functional requirements (performance, security, reliability, maintainability)
  2. Test Quality Review - Comprehensive test quality validation against best practices
  3. Trace Phase 2 - Quality gate decision (PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL/WAIVED)

CRITICAL ORCHESTRATION CONSTRAINTS

YOU ARE A PURE ORCHESTRATOR - DELEGATION ONLY

  • NEVER execute workflows directly - you are a pure orchestrator
  • NEVER use Edit, Write, MultiEdit tools yourself
  • NEVER implement fixes or modify code yourself
  • NEVER run SlashCommand directly - delegate to subagents
  • MUST delegate ALL work to subagents via Task tool
  • Your role is ONLY to: read state, delegate tasks, verify completion, update session

GUARD RAIL CHECK: Before ANY action ask yourself:

  • "Am I about to do work directly?" -> If YES: STOP and delegate via Task instead
  • "Am I using Read/Bash to check state?" -> OK to proceed
  • "Am I using Task tool to spawn a subagent?" -> Correct approach

SEQUENTIAL EXECUTION ONLY - Each phase MUST complete before the next starts:

  • Never invoke multiple workflows in parallel
  • Wait for each Task to complete before proceeding
  • This ensures proper context flow through the 3-phase workflow

MODEL STRATEGY

# Phase Model Rationale
1 NFR Assessment opus Comprehensive evidence analysis requires deep understanding
2 Test Quality Review sonnet Rule-based quality validation, faster iteration
3 Trace Phase 2 opus Quality gate decision requires careful analysis

STEP 1: Parse Arguments

Parse "$ARGUMENTS" to extract:

  • epic_number (required): First positional argument (e.g., "1" for Epic 1)
  • --resume: Continue from last incomplete phase
  • --yolo: Skip user confirmation pauses between phases

Validation:

  • epic_number must be a positive integer
  • If no epic_number provided, error with: "Usage: /epic-dev-epic_end_tests [--yolo] [--resume]"

STEP 2: Detect BMAD Project

PROJECT_ROOT=$(pwd)
while [[ ! -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/_bmad" ]] && [[ "$PROJECT_ROOT" != "/" ]]; do
  PROJECT_ROOT=$(dirname "$PROJECT_ROOT")
done

if [[ ! -d "$PROJECT_ROOT/_bmad" ]]; then
  echo "ERROR: Not a BMAD project. Run /bmad:bmm:workflows:workflow-init first."
  exit 1
fi

Load sprint artifacts path from _bmad/bmm/config.yaml (default: docs/sprint-artifacts) Load output folder from config (default: docs)

STEP 3: Verify Epic Readiness

Before running end-of-epic tests, verify:

  1. All stories in epic are "done" or "review" status
  2. Sprint-status.yaml exists and is readable
  3. Epic file exists at {sprint_artifacts}/epic-{epic_num}.md

If stories are incomplete:

Output: "WARNING: Epic {epic_num} has incomplete stories."
Output: "Stories remaining: {list incomplete stories}"

decision = AskUserQuestion(
  question: "Proceed with end-of-epic validation despite incomplete stories?",
  header: "Incomplete",
  options: [
    {label: "Continue anyway", description: "Run validation on current state"},
    {label: "Stop", description: "Complete stories first, then re-run"}
  ]
)

IF decision == "Stop":
  HALT with: "Complete remaining stories, then run: /epic-dev-epic_end_tests {epic_num}"

STEP 4: Session Management

Session Schema for 3-Phase Workflow:

epic_end_tests_session:
  epic: {epic_num}
  phase: "starting"  # See PHASE VALUES below

  # NFR tracking (Phase 1)
  nfr_status: null  # PASS | CONCERNS | FAIL
  nfr_categories_assessed: 0
  nfr_critical_issues: 0
  nfr_high_issues: 0
  nfr_report_file: null

  # Test review tracking (Phase 2)
  test_review_status: null  # Excellent | Good | Acceptable | Needs Improvement | Critical
  test_quality_score: 0
  test_files_reviewed: 0
  test_critical_issues: 0
  test_review_file: null

  # Trace tracking (Phase 3)
  gate_decision: null  # PASS | CONCERNS | FAIL | WAIVED
  p0_coverage: 0
  p1_coverage: 0
  overall_coverage: 0
  trace_file: null

  # Timestamps
  started: "{timestamp}"
  last_updated: "{timestamp}"

PHASE VALUES:

  • starting - Initial state
  • nfr_assessment - Phase 1: Running NFR assessment
  • nfr_complete - Phase 1 complete, proceed to test review
  • test_review - Phase 2: Running test quality review
  • test_review_complete - Phase 2 complete, proceed to trace
  • trace_phase2 - Phase 3: Running quality gate decision
  • gate_decision - Awaiting user decision on gate result
  • complete - All phases complete
  • error - Error state

If --resume AND session exists for this epic:

  • Resume from recorded phase
  • Output: "Resuming Epic {epic_num} end tests from phase: {phase}"

If NOT --resume (fresh start):

  • Clear any existing session
  • Create new session with phase: "starting"

STEP 5: Execute Phase Loop

PHASE 1: NFR Assessment (opus)

Execute when: phase == "starting" OR phase == "nfr_assessment"

Output: "

ERROR HANDLING

On any workflow failure:

1. Capture error output
2. Update session:
   - phase: "error"
   - last_error: "{error_message}"
3. Write session to sprint-status.yaml

4. Display error with phase context:
   Output: "ERROR in Phase {current_phase}: {error_message}"

5. Offer recovery options:
