Confidence: 🟡 Medium — Research-backed testing playbook – review semi-annually

How to use this skill

1. Begin with modules/core-guidance.md to capture context and risk profile.
2. Design test portfolio using modules/test-pyramid-and-planning.md.
3. Build sustainable automation with modules/automation-frameworks.md.
4. Cover non-functional requirements via modules/non-functional-testing.md.
5. Integrate into CI and monitor via modules/ci-integration-and-observability.md.
6. Govern quality metrics through modules/quality-metrics-and-governance.md.
7. Record future improvements in modules/known-gaps.md and revisit modules/research-checklist.md twice a year.

Module overview
