QE Test Generation
Purpose
Guide the use of v3's AI-powered test generation capabilities including pattern-based test synthesis, multi-framework support, and intelligent test case derivation from code analysis.
Write durable-first (the core rule)
When AI makes code cheap to regenerate, the durable asset is the test that still holds after the implementation is thrown away and rewritten. Generate tests in durability tiers, and lead with the durable ones (ADR-113):
| Tier | What it is | Survives a rewrite? | When to write |
|---|---|---|---|
| Durable | Invariants, contracts/schemas, property-based tests, behavioral e2e — specified at the module's public boundary | Yes | Always — ≥1 per target |
| Ephemeral | Example-based unit tests, mock-call/interaction tests (TDD-London style) | No (coupled to impl) | For the red-green loop; label them, delete freely |
| Live | Monitoring / drift / cost assertions that run against reality | Continuously | For deployed behavior |
