Testing Strategy
Design effective testing strategies balancing coverage, speed, and maintenance.
Testing Pyramid
/ E2E \ Few, slow, high confidence
/ Integration \ Some, medium speed
/ Unit Tests \ Many, fast, focusedStrategy by Component Type
- API endpoints: Unit tests for business logic, integration tests for HTTP layer, contract tests for consumers
- Data pipelines: Input validation, transformation correctness, idempotency tests
- Frontend: Component tests, interaction tests, visual regression, accessibility
- Infrastructure: Smoke tests, chaos engineering, load tests
What to Cover
Focus on: business-critical paths, error handling, edge cases, security boundaries, data integrity.
Skip: trivial getters/setters, framework code, one-off scripts.
Output
Produce a test plan with: what to test, test type for each area, coverage targets, and example test cases. Identify gaps in existing coverage.
