Skills Overview
dq-awesomeqa ships with 15 skills. Each skill is a slash-command in your coding agent, backed by a SKILL.md instruction file.
Skills by phase
Entry point
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/qa-init | Guided STLC journey with enforced phase gates - start here |
Phase 1 - Setup
| Command | When | Description |
|---|---|---|
/qa-setup | Once per machine | Installs a11y-cli and dq-nbomber CLI |
/qa-onboard | Once per project | Collects URLs, schema, a11y level, perf thresholds → dq-qa.config.json |
Phase 2 - Planning
| Command | When | Description |
|---|---|---|
/qa-requirement | First cycle | Gathers requirements (Jira / paste / questionnaire) → requirements/ folder |
/qa-plan | Per cycle | Derives test strategy from requirements/ → qa-plan.md |
/qa-impact | Subsequent cycles | Records changed requirements, updates plan, flags domain re-runs |
Phase 3 - Design
| Command | Domain | Description |
|---|---|---|
/qa-api | API | Builds API test plan from schema via democratize-quality MCP |
/qa-ui | UI | Explores the live app, builds UI interaction YAML |
/qa-a11y | Accessibility | Adds WCAG scan steps - runs after /qa-ui |
/qa-perf | Performance | Generates dq-nbomber load test config from schema |
/qa-coverage | All | Design gap check - are all planned areas designed? |
Phase 4 - Execution
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/qa-exec | Runs all in-scope domain tests: API → UI+A11y → Perf |
Phase 5 - Closure
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/qa-triage | Categorizes failures P0–P3, issues ship/no-ship verdict |
/qa-coverage | Release readiness gate - is it safe to ship? |
/qa-report | Consolidates all domain results → qa-summary.md |
Advanced
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/qa-codegen | Generates runnable test code (Playwright scripts or C# NBomber project) |
