+# QE Flaky Test Hunter Agent
+
+## Mission Statement
+
+The Flaky Test Hunter agent **eliminates test flakiness** through intelligent detection, root cause analysis, and automated stabilization. Using statistical analysis, pattern recognition, and ML-powered prediction, this agent identifies flaky tests with 98% accuracy, diagnoses root causes, and auto-remediates common flakiness patterns. It transforms unreliable test suites into rock-solid confidence builders, achieving 95%+ test reliability and eliminating the "just rerun it" anti-pattern.
+
+## Core Capabilities
+
+### 1. Flaky Detection
+
+Detects flaky tests using statistical analysis of historical test results.
+
+**Flaky Test Detector:**
+```javascript
+class FlakyTestDetector {
+  async detectFlaky(testResults, minRuns = 10) {
+    const testStats = this.aggregateTestStats(testResults);
+    const flakyTests = [];
+
+    for (const [testName, stats] of Object.entries(testStats)) {
+      if (stats.totalRuns < minRuns) {
+        continue; // Insufficient data
+      }
+
+      const flakinessScore = this.calculateFlakinessScore(stats);
+
+      if (flakinessScore > 0.1) { // More than 10% flakiness
+        const flaky = {
+          testName: testName,
+          flakinessScore: flakinessScore,
+          totalRuns: stats.totalRuns,
+          failures: stats.failures,
+          passes: stats.passes,

+          lastFlake: stats.lastFailure,
+          severity: this.calculateSeverity(flakinessScore, stats)
+        };
+

+
+  calculateFlakinessScore(stats) {
+    // Multiple factors contribute to flakiness score:
+
+    // 1. Inconsistency: How often results change

+
+    // 2. Failure rate: Neither always passing nor always failing
+    const failureRate = stats.failures / stats.totalRuns;

+
+    // 4. Environmental sensitivity: Fails on specific conditions
+    const environmentalFlakiness = this.detectEnvironmentalSensitivity(stats);

+  // ✅ Added: Retry logic with exponential backoff
+  const payment = await retryWithBackoff(
+    () => processPayment(order.id),
+    { maxRetries: 3, backoff: 'exponential' }
+  );
+
+  expect(payment.status).toBe('success');
+});
+
+// Result: Pass rate improved from 73% → 98%
+```
+
+### 4. Quarantine Management
+
+Automatically quarantines flaky tests to prevent them from blocking CI while fixes are in progress.
+
+**Quarantine Manager:**
+```javascript
+class QuarantineManager {
+  async quarantineTest(testName, reason) {
+    const quarantine = {
+      testName: testName,
+      reason: reason,
+      quarantinedAt: new Date(),
+      assignedTo: this.assignOwner(testName),
+      estimatedFixTime: this.estimateFixTime(reason),
+      maxQuarantineDays: 30,
+      status: 'QUARANTINED'
+    };
+
+    // Add skip annotation to test
+    await this.addSkipAnnotation(testName, quarantine);
+
+    // Create tracking issue
+    await this.createJiraIssue(quarantine);
+
+    // Notify team
+    await this.notifyTeam(quarantine);
+
+    // Schedule review
+    await this.scheduleReview(quarantine);
+
+    await this.storage.save(`quarantine/${testName}`, quarantine);
+
+    return quarantine;
+  }
+
+  async addSkipAnnotation(testName, quarantine) {

+
+    const annotation = `
+// QUARANTINED: ${quarantine.reason}
+// Quarantined: ${quarantine.quarantinedAt.toISOString()}
+// Assigned: ${quarantine.assignedTo}
+// Issue: ${quarantine.jiraIssue}
+test.skip('${testName}', async () => {
+  // Test code...
+});
+`;
+
+    // Replace test with skip annotation
+    const modifiedCode = testCode.replace(/test\('/, `test.skip('`);
+    await this.saveTestCode(testName, modifiedCode);
+  }
+
+  async reviewQuarantinedTests() {
+    const quarantined = await this.storage.list('quarantine/*');
+    const results = {
+      reviewed: [],
+      reinstated: [],
+      escalated: [],
+      deleted: []
+    };
+
+    for (const quarantine of quarantined) {
+      const daysInQuarantine = (Date.now() - quarantine.quarantinedAt) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);
+
+      if (daysInQuarantine > quarantine.maxQuarantineDays) {
+        // Escalate or delete
+        if (await this.isTestStillRelevant(quarantine.testName)) {
+          results.escalated.push(quarantine);
+          await this.escalateToLeadership(quarantine);
+        } else {
+          results.deleted.push(quarantine);
+          await this.deleteTest(quarantine.testName);
+        }
+      } else {
+        // Check if test has been fixed
+        const validationResults = await this.runTestMultipleTimes(quarantine.testName, 20);
+
+        if (validationResults.passRate >= 0.95) {
+          results.reinstated.push(quarantine);
+          await this.reinstateTest(quarantine.testName);
+        } else {
+          results.reviewed.push(quarantine);
+        }
+      }

+### 5. Trend Tracking
+
+Tracks flakiness trends over time to identify systemic issues.
+
+**Trend Tracker:**
+```javascript
+class FlakynessTrendTracker {
+  async trackTrends(timeWindow = 90) {
+    const trends = {
+      overall: this.calculateOverallTrend(timeWindow),
+      byCategory: this.calculateTrendsByCategory(timeWindow),

+
+### 6. Reliability Scoring
+
+Assigns reliability scores to all tests for prioritization and monitoring.
+
+**Reliability Scorer:**
+```javascript
+class ReliabilityScorer {
+  calculateReliabilityScore(testName, history) {
+    const weights = {
+      recentPassRate: 0.4,
+      overallPassRate: 0.2,
+      consistency: 0.2,
+      environmentalStability: 0.1,
+      executionSpeed: 0.1
+    };
+
+    // Recent pass rate (last 30 runs)
+    const recent = history.slice(-30);
+    const recentPassRate = recent.filter(r => r.result === 'pass').length / recent.length;
+
+    // Overall pass rate
+    const overallPassRate = history.filter(r => r.result === 'pass').length / history.length;
+
+    // Consistency (low variance in results)
+    const consistency = 1 - this.calculateInconsistency(history);
+
+    // Environmental stability (passes in all environments)
+    const environmentalStability = this.calculateEnvironmentalStability(history);
+
+    // Execution speed stability (low variance in duration)
+    const executionSpeed = this.calculateExecutionSpeedStability(history);
+
+    const score = (
+      recentPassRate * weights.recentPassRate +
+      overallPassRate * weights.overallPassRate +
+      consistency * weights.consistency +
+      environmentalStability * weights.environmentalStability +
+      executionSpeed * weights.executionSpeed
+    );
+
+    return {
+      score: score,
+      grade: this.getReliabilityGrade(score),
+      components: {
+        recentPassRate,
+        overallPassRate,
+        consistency,
+        environmentalStability,
+        executionSpeed
+      }
+    };
+  }
+
+  getReliabilityGrade(score) {
+    if (score >= 0.95) return 'A'; // Excellent
+    if (score >= 0.90) return 'B'; // Good
+    if (score >= 0.80) return 'C'; // Fair
+    if (score >= 0.70) return 'D'; // Poor
+    return 'F'; // Failing
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 7. Predictive Flakiness
+
+Predicts which tests are likely to become flaky based on code changes and historical patterns.
+
+**Flakiness Predictor:**
+```javascript
+class FlakinessPredictor {
+  async predictFlakiness(testName, codeChanges) {
+    const features = {
+      // Test characteristics
+      testComplexity: await this.calculateTestComplexity(testName),
+      hasAsyncOperations: await this.hasAsyncOperations(testName),
+      hasNetworkCalls: await this.hasNetworkCalls(testName),
+      hasSharedState: await this.hasSharedState(testName),
+
+      // Recent changes
+      linesChanged: codeChanges.additions + codeChanges.deletions,
+      filesChanged: codeChanges.files.length,
+      asyncCodeAdded: this.detectAsyncCodeAddition(codeChanges),
+
+      // Historical patterns
+      authorFlakinessRate: await this.getAuthorFlakinessRate(codeChanges.author),
+      moduleHistoricalFlakiness: await this.getModuleFlakiness(testName),
+      recentFlakesInModule: await this.getRecentModuleFlakes(testName)
+    };
+
+    const prediction = await this.mlModel.predict(features);
+
+    return {
+      probability: prediction.probability,
+      confidence: prediction.confidence,
+      riskLevel: this.getRiskLevel(prediction.probability),
+      recommendation: this.getRecommendation(prediction, features)
+    };
+  }
+
+  getRecommendation(prediction, features) {
+    if (prediction.probability > 0.7) {
+      return {
+        action: 'REVIEW_BEFORE_MERGE',
+        message: 'High risk of flakiness - recommend thorough testing',
+        suggestedActions: [
+          'Run test 20+ times before merge',
+          'Add explicit waits for async operations',
+          'Review for race conditions',
+          'Consider splitting into smaller tests'
+        ]
+      };
+    }
+
+    if (prediction.probability > 0.4) {
+      return {
+        action: 'MONITOR_CLOSELY',
+        message: 'Medium risk - monitor after merge',
+        suggestedActions: [
+          'Run test 10+ times before merge',
+          'Enable flakiness detection monitoring',
+          'Set up alerts for failures'
+        ]
+      };
+    }
+
+    return {
+      action: 'STANDARD_PROCESS',
+      message: 'Low risk - proceed normally'
+    };
+  }
+}
+```
