+# Test Design Techniques
+
+<default_to_action>
+When designing test cases systematically:
+1. APPLY Boundary Value Analysis (test at min, max, edges)
+2. USE Equivalence Partitioning (one test per partition)
+3. CREATE Decision Tables (for complex business rules)
+4. MODEL State Transitions (for stateful behavior)
+5. REDUCE with Pairwise Testing (for combinations)
+
+**Quick Design Selection:**
+- Numeric ranges → BVA + EP
+- Multiple conditions → Decision Tables
+- Workflows → State Transition
+- Many parameters → Pairwise Testing
+
+**Critical Success Factors:**
+- Systematic design finds more bugs with fewer tests
+- Random testing is inefficient
+- 40+ years of research backs these techniques
+</default_to_action>
+
+## Quick Reference Card
+
+### When to Use
+- Designing new test suites
+- Optimizing existing tests
+- Complex business rules
+- Reducing test redundancy
+
+### Technique Selection Guide
+| Scenario | Technique |
+|----------|-----------|
+| **Numeric input ranges** | BVA + EP |
+| **Multiple conditions** | Decision Tables |
+| **Stateful workflows** | State Transition |
+| **Many parameter combinations** | Pairwise |
+| **All combinations critical** | Full Factorial |
+
+---
+
+## Boundary Value Analysis (BVA)
+
+**Principle:** Bugs cluster at boundaries.
+
+**Test at boundaries:**
+- Minimum valid value
+- Just below minimum (invalid)
+- Just above minimum (valid)
+- Maximum valid value
+- Just above maximum (invalid)
+
+```javascript
+// Age field: 18-120 valid
+const boundaryTests = [
+  { input: 17, expected: 'invalid' },  // Below min
+  { input: 18, expected: 'valid' },    // Min boundary
+  { input: 19, expected: 'valid' },    // Above min
+  { input: 119, expected: 'valid' },   // Below max
+  { input: 120, expected: 'valid' },   // Max boundary
+  { input: 121, expected: 'invalid' }  // Above max
+];
+```
+
+---
+
+## Equivalence Partitioning (EP)
+
+**Principle:** One test per equivalent class.
+
+```javascript
+// Discount rules:
+// 1-10:  No discount
+// 11-100: 10% discount
+// 101+:   20% discount
+
+const partitionTests = [
+  { quantity: -1, expected: 'invalid' },  // Invalid partition
+  { quantity: 5, expected: 0 },           // Partition 1: 1-10
+  { quantity: 50, expected: 0.10 },       // Partition 2: 11-100
+  { quantity: 200, expected: 0.20 }       // Partition 3: 101+
+];
+
+// 4 tests cover all behavior (vs 200+ if testing every value)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Decision Tables
+
+**Use for:** Complex business rules with multiple conditions.
+
+```
+Loan Approval Rules:
+┌──────────────┬───────┬───────┬───────┬───────┬───────┐
+│ Conditions   │ R1    │ R2    │ R3    │ R4    │ R5    │
+├──────────────┼───────┼───────┼───────┼───────┼───────┤
+│ Age ≥ 18     │ Yes   │ Yes   │ Yes   │ No    │ Yes   │
+│ Credit ≥ 700 │ Yes   │ Yes   │ No    │ Yes   │ No    │
+│ Income ≥ 50k │ Yes   │ No    │ Yes   │ Yes   │ Yes   │
+├──────────────┼───────┼───────┼───────┼───────┼───────┤
+│ Result       │Approve│Approve│Reject │Reject │Reject │
+└──────────────┴───────┴───────┴───────┴───────┴───────┘
+
+// 5 tests cover all decision combinations
+```
+
+---
+
+## State Transition Testing
+
+**Model state changes:**
+
+```
+States: Logged Out → Logged In → Premium → Suspended
+
+Valid Transitions:
+- Login: Logged Out → Logged In
+- Upgrade: Logged In → Premium
+- Payment Fail: Premium → Suspended
+- Logout: Any → Logged Out
+
+Invalid Transitions to Test:
+- Logged Out → Premium (should reject)
+- Suspended → Premium (should reject)
+```
+
+```javascript
+test('cannot upgrade without login', async () => {
+  const result = await user.upgrade(); // While logged out
+  expect(result.error).toBe('Login required');
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## Pairwise (Combinatorial) Testing
+
+**Problem:** All combinations explode exponentially.
+
+```javascript
+// Parameters:
+// Browser: Chrome, Firefox, Safari (3)
+// OS: Windows, Mac, Linux (3)
+// Screen: Desktop, Tablet, Mobile (3)
+
+// All combinations: 3 × 3 × 3 = 27 tests
+// Pairwise: 9 tests cover all pairs
+
+const pairwiseTests = [
+  { browser: 'Chrome', os: 'Windows', screen: 'Desktop' },
+  { browser: 'Chrome', os: 'Mac', screen: 'Tablet' },
+  { browser: 'Chrome', os: 'Linux', screen: 'Mobile' },
+  { browser: 'Firefox', os: 'Windows', screen: 'Tablet' },
+  { browser: 'Firefox', os: 'Mac', screen: 'Mobile' },
+  { browser: 'Firefox', os: 'Linux', screen: 'Desktop' },
+  { browser: 'Safari', os: 'Windows', screen: 'Mobile' },
+  { browser: 'Safari', os: 'Mac', screen: 'Desktop' },
+  { browser: 'Safari', os: 'Linux', screen: 'Tablet' }
+];
+// Each pair appears at least once
+```
+
+---
+
+## Agent-Driven Test Design
+
+```typescript
+// Auto-generate BVA tests
+await Task("Generate BVA Tests", {
+  field: 'age',
+  dataType: 'integer',
+  constraints: { min: 18, max: 120 }
+}, "qe-test-generator");
+// Returns: 6 boundary test cases
+
+// Auto-generate pairwise tests
+await Task("Generate Pairwise Tests", {
+  parameters: {
+    browser: ['Chrome', 'Firefox', 'Safari'],
+    os: ['Windows', 'Mac', 'Linux'],
+    screen: ['Desktop', 'Tablet', 'Mobile']
+  }
+}, "qe-test-generator");
+// Returns: 9-12 tests (vs 27 full combination)

+## Remember
+
+**Systematic design > Random testing.** 40+ years of research shows these techniques find more bugs with fewer tests than ad-hoc approaches.
+
+**Combine techniques for comprehensive coverage.** BVA for boundaries, EP for partitions, decision tables for rules, pairwise for combinations.
+
+**With Agents:** `qe-test-generator` applies these techniques automatically, generating optimal test suites with maximum coverage and minimum redundancy. Agents identify boundaries, partitions, and combinations from code analysis.

+# Test Environment Management
+
+<default_to_action>
+When managing test environments:
+1. DEFINE environment types (local, CI, staging, prod)
+2. CONTAINERIZE with Docker for consistency
+3. ENSURE parity with production (same versions, configs)
+4. MOCK external services (service virtualization)
+5. OPTIMIZE costs (auto-shutdown, spot instances)
+
+**Quick Environment Checklist:**
+- Same OS/versions as production
+- Same database type and version
+- Same configuration structure
+- Containers for reproducibility
+- Auto-shutdown after hours
+
+**Critical Success Factors:**
+- "Works on my machine" = environment inconsistency
+- Infrastructure as Code = repeatable environments
+- Service virtualization = test without external dependencies
+</default_to_action>
+
+## Quick Reference Card
+
+### When to Use
+- Setting up test infrastructure
+- Debugging environment-specific failures
+- Reducing test infrastructure costs
+- Ensuring dev/prod parity
+
+### Environment Types
+| Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
+|------|---------|----------|
+| **Local** | Fast feedback | Developer session |
+| **CI** | Automated tests | Per build (ephemeral) |
+| **Staging** | Pre-prod validation | Persistent |
+| **Production** | Canary/synthetic | Continuous |
+
+### Dev/Prod Parity Checklist
+| Item | Must Match |
+|------|------------|
+| OS | Same version |
+| Database | Same type + version |
+| Dependencies | Same versions |
+| Config | Same structure |
+| Env vars | Same names |
+
+---
+
+## Docker for Test Environments
+
+```yaml
+# docker-compose.test.yml
+version: '3.8'
+
+services:
+  app:
+    build: .
+    ports:
+      - "3000:3000"
+    environment:
+      NODE_ENV: test
+      DATABASE_URL: postgres://postgres:password@db:5432/test
+    depends_on:
+      - db
+      - redis
+
+  db:
+    image: postgres:15
+    environment:
+      POSTGRES_DB: test
+      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
+
+  redis:
+    image: redis:7
+```
+
+**Run tests in container:**
+```bash
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.test.yml up -d
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.test.yml exec app npm test
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.test.yml down
+```
+
+---
+
+## Infrastructure as Code
+
+```hcl
+# test-environment.tf
+resource "aws_instance" "test_server" {
+  ami           = "ami-0c55b159cbfafe1f0"
+  instance_type = "t3.medium"
+
+  tags = {
+    Name         = "test-environment"
+    Environment  = "test"
+    AutoShutdown = "20:00" # Cost optimization
+  }
+}
+
+resource "aws_rds_instance" "test_db" {
+  engine                  = "postgres"
+  engine_version          = "15"
+  instance_class          = "db.t3.micro"
+  backup_retention_period = 0 # No backups needed for test
+  skip_final_snapshot     = true
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Service Virtualization
+
+```javascript
+// Mock external services with WireMock
+import { WireMock } from 'wiremock-captain';
+
+const wiremock = new WireMock('http://localhost:8080');
+
+// Mock payment gateway
+await wiremock.register({
+  request: {
+    method: 'POST',
+    url: '/charge'
+  },
+  response: {
+    status: 200,
+    jsonBody: { transactionId: '12345', status: 'approved' }
+  }
+});
+
+// Tests use mock instead of real gateway
+```
+
+---
+
+## Cost Optimization
+
+```bash
+# Auto-shutdown test environments after hours
+0 20 * * * aws ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids $(aws ec2 describe-instances \
+  --filters "Name=tag:Environment,Values=test" \
+  --query "Reservations[].Instances[].InstanceId" --output text)
+
+# Start before work hours
+0 7 * * 1-5 aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids $(aws ec2 describe-instances \
+  --filters "Name=tag:Environment,Values=test" \
+  --query "Reservations[].Instances[].InstanceId" --output text)
+```
+
+**Use spot instances (70% savings):**
+```hcl
+resource "aws_instance" "test_runner" {
+  instance_type = "c5.2xlarge"
+  instance_market_options {
+    market_type = "spot"
+    spot_options {
+      max_price = "0.10"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
