Cypress to Scout Migration

Overview

Migrate Cypress tests to Scout by first validating each test through triage gates, then rewriting using Scout patterns. Never migrate Cypress tests directly — validate first, then rewrite following Scout best practices.

Required sub-skills

• REQUIRED: scout-create-scaffold (generate Scout directory structure)
• REQUIRED: scout-ui-testing (page objects, browser auth, parallel UI)
• REQUIRED: scout-api-testing (apiClient/auth, apiServices patterns)
• REQUIRED: scout-best-practices-reviewer (review migrated tests)

Core principle

Exercise behavior in the least flaky automation layer first: UNIT > API > UI

A Cypress E2E test should only become a Scout E2E test if it genuinely tests a user workflow that cannot be verified at a lower layer.
