WordPress Test Strategy Skill

Overview

Systematic testing strategy guidance for WordPress projects. Core principle: Test depth should match risk, and the test pyramid should reflect the WordPress surface area involved. Review covers unit tests, WordPress integration tests, REST endpoint tests, block tests, browser or E2E flows, WooCommerce regressions, fixtures, and release-risk prioritization.

When to Use

Use when:

• Deciding what tests to add for a feature or fix
• Reviewing missing coverage in a plugin or theme
• Planning regression tests before release
• Choosing between unit, integration, and E2E coverage
• Mapping block, REST, admin, or WooCommerce behavior to tests

Don't use for:

• Code review that does not involve testing decisions
• CI system debugging only
• Performance benchmarking alone
