QA Debugging (Jan 2026)

Use systematic debugging to turn symptoms into evidence, then into a verified fix with a regression test and prevention plan.

Quick Start

Intake (Ask First)

  • Capture the failure signature: error message, stack trace, request ID/trace ID, timestamp, build SHA, environment, affected user/tenant.
  • Confirm expected vs actual behavior, plus the smallest reliable reproduction steps (or “cannot reproduce” explicitly).
  • Ask “when did this start?” and “what changed?” (deploy, flag, config, data, dependency, infra).
  • Identify blast radius and urgency: who/what is impacted, and whether this is an incident.

Output Shape (Default)

  • Summary of symptoms + confirmed facts
  • Top hypotheses (ranked) with evidence and disconfirming tests
  • Next experiments (smallest, fastest, safest) with expected outcomes
  • Fix options (root-cause) + verification plan + regression test target
