-# Test Framework Setup
-
-**Workflow ID**: `.bmad/bmm/testarch/framework`
-**Version**: 4.0 (BMad v6)
-
----
-
-## Overview
-
-Initialize a production-ready test framework architecture (Playwright or Cypress) with fixtures, helpers, configuration, and best practices. This workflow scaffolds the complete testing infrastructure for modern web applications.
-
----
-
-## Preflight Requirements
-
-**Critical:** Verify these requirements before proceeding. If any fail, HALT and notify the user.
-
-- ✅ `package.json` exists in project root
-- ✅ No modern E2E test harness is already configured (check for existing `playwright.config.*` or `cypress.config.*`)
-- ✅ Architectural/stack context available (project type, bundler, dependencies)
-
----
-
-## Step 1: Run Preflight Checks
-
-### Actions
-
-1. **Validate package.json**
-   - Read `{project-root}/package.json`
-   - Extract project type (React, Vue, Angular, Next.js, Node, etc.)
-   - Identify bundler (Vite, Webpack, Rollup, esbuild)
-   - Note existing test dependencies
-
-2. **Check for Existing Framework**
-   - Search for `playwright.config.*`, `cypress.config.*`, `cypress.json`
-   - Check `package.json` for `@playwright/test` or `cypress` dependencies
-   - If found, HALT with message: "Existing test framework detected. Use workflow `upgrade-framework` instead."
-
-3. **Gather Context**
-   - Look for architecture documents (`architecture.md`, `tech-spec*.md`)
-   - Check for API documentation or endpoint lists
-   - Identify authentication requirements
-
-**Halt Condition:** If preflight checks fail, stop immediately and report which requirement failed.
-
----
-
-## Step 2: Scaffold Framework
-
-### Actions
-
-1. **Framework Selection**
-
-   **Default Logic:**
-   - **Playwright** (recommended for):
-     - Large repositories (100+ files)
-     - Performance-critical applications
-     - Multi-browser support needed
-     - Complex user flows requiring video/trace debugging
-     - Projects requiring worker parallelism
-
-   - **Cypress** (recommended for):
-     - Small teams prioritizing developer experience
-     - Component testing focus
-     - Real-time reloading during test development
-     - Simpler setup requirements
-
-   **Detection Strategy:**
-   - Check `package.json` for existing preference
-   - Consider `project_size` variable from workflow config
-   - Use `framework_preference` variable if set
-   - Default to **Playwright** if uncertain
-
-2. **Create Directory Structure**
-
-   ```
-   {project-root}/
-   ├── tests/                        # Root test directory
-   │   ├── e2e/                      # Test files (users organize as needed)
-   │   ├── support/                  # Framework infrastructure (key pattern)
-   │   │   ├── fixtures/             # Test fixtures (data, mocks)
-   │   │   ├── helpers/              # Utility functions
-   │   │   └── page-objects/         # Page object models (optional)
-   │   └── README.md                 # Test suite documentation
-   ```
-
-   **Note**: Users organize test files (e2e/, api/, integration/, component/) as needed. The **support/** folder is the critical pattern for fixtures and helpers used across tests.
-
-3. **Generate Configuration File**
-
-   **For Playwright** (`playwright.config.ts` or `playwright.config.js`):
-
-   ```typescript
-   import { defineConfig, devices } from '@playwright/test';
-
-   export default defineConfig({
-     testDir: './tests/e2e',
-     fullyParallel: true,
-     forbidOnly: !!process.env.CI,
-     retries: process.env.CI ? 2 : 0,
-     workers: process.env.CI ? 1 : undefined,
-
-     timeout: 60 * 1000, // Test timeout: 60s
-     expect: {
-       timeout: 15 * 1000, // Assertion timeout: 15s
-     },
-
-     use: {
-       baseURL: process.env.BASE_URL || 'http://localhost:3000',
-       trace: 'retain-on-failure',
-       screenshot: 'only-on-failure',
-       video: 'retain-on-failure',
-       actionTimeout: 15 * 1000, // Action timeout: 15s
-       navigationTimeout: 30 * 1000, // Navigation timeout: 30s
-     },
-
-     reporter: [['html', { outputFolder: 'test-results/html' }], ['junit', { outputFile: 'test-results/junit.xml' }], ['list']],
-
-     projects: [
-       { name: 'chromium', use: { ...devices['Desktop Chrome'] } },
-       { name: 'firefox', use: { ...devices['Desktop Firefox'] } },
-       { name: 'webkit', use: { ...devices['Desktop Safari'] } },
-     ],
-   });
-   ```
-
-   **For Cypress** (`cypress.config.ts` or `cypress.config.js`):
-
-   ```typescript
-   import { defineConfig } from 'cypress';
-
-   export default defineConfig({
-     e2e: {
-       baseUrl: process.env.BASE_URL || 'http://localhost:3000',
-       specPattern: 'tests/e2e/**/*.cy.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}',
-       supportFile: 'tests/support/e2e.ts',
-       video: false,
-       screenshotOnRunFailure: true,
-
-       setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
-         // implement node event listeners here
-       },
-     },
-
-     retries: {
-       runMode: 2,
-       openMode: 0,
-     },
-
-     defaultCommandTimeout: 15000,
-     requestTimeout: 30000,
-     responseTimeout: 30000,
-     pageLoadTimeout: 60000,
-   });
-   ```
-
-4. **Generate Environment Configuration**
-
-   Create `.env.example`:
-
-   ```bash
-   # Test Environment Configuration
-   TEST_ENV=local
-   BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000
-   API_URL=http://localhost:3001/api
-
-   # Authentication (if applicable)
-   TEST_USER_EMAIL=test@example.com
-   TEST_USER_PASSWORD=
-
-   # Feature Flags (if applicable)
-   FEATURE_FLAG_NEW_UI=true
-
-   # API Keys (if applicable)
-   TEST_API_KEY=
-   ```
-
-5. **Generate Node Version File**
-
-   Create `.nvmrc`:
-
-   ```
-   20.11.0
-   ```
-
-   (Use Node version from existing `.nvmrc` or default to current LTS)
-
-6. **Implement Fixture Architecture**
-
-   **Knowledge Base Reference**: `testarch/knowledge/fixture-architecture.md`
-
-   Create `tests/support/fixtures/index.ts`:
-
-   ```typescript
-   import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-   import { UserFactory } from './factories/user-factory';
-
-   type TestFixtures = {
-     userFactory: UserFactory;
-   };
-
-   export const test = base.extend<TestFixtures>({
-     userFactory: async ({}, use) => {
-       const factory = new UserFactory();
-       await use(factory);
-       await factory.cleanup(); // Auto-cleanup
-     },
-   });
-
-   export { expect } from '@playwright/test';
-   ```
-
-7. **Implement Data Factories**
-
-   **Knowledge Base Reference**: `testarch/knowledge/data-factories.md`
-
-   Create `tests/support/fixtures/factories/user-factory.ts`:
-
-   ```typescript
-   import { faker } from '@faker-js/faker';
-
-   export class UserFactory {
-     private createdUsers: string[] = [];
-
-     async createUser(overrides = {}) {
-       const user = {
-         email: faker.internet.email(),
-         name: faker.person.fullName(),
-         password: faker.internet.password({ length: 12 }),
-         ...overrides,
-       };
-
-       // API call to create user
-       const response = await fetch(`${process.env.API_URL}/users`, {
-         method: 'POST',
-         headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
-         body: JSON.stringify(user),
-       });
-
-       const created = await response.json();
-       this.createdUsers.push(created.id);
-       return created;
-     }
-
-     async cleanup() {
-       // Delete all created users
-       for (const userId of this.createdUsers) {
-         await fetch(`${process.env.API_URL}/users/${userId}`, {
-           method: 'DELETE',
-         });
-       }
-       this.createdUsers = [];
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-8. **Generate Sample Tests**
-
-   Create `tests/e2e/example.spec.ts`:
-
-   ```typescript
-   import { test, expect } from '../support/fixtures';
-
-   test.describe('Example Test Suite', () => {
-     test('should load homepage', async ({ page }) => {
-       await page.goto('/');
-       await expect(page).toHaveTitle(/Home/i);
-     });
-
-     test('should create user and login', async ({ page, userFactory }) => {
-       // Create test user
-       const user = await userFactory.createUser();
-
-       // Login
-       await page.goto('/login');
-       await page.fill('[data-testid="email-input"]', user.email);
-       await page.fill('[data-testid="password-input"]', user.password);
-       await page.click('[data-testid="login-button"]');
-
-       // Assert login success
-       await expect(page.locator('[data-testid="user-menu"]')).toBeVisible();
-     });
-   });
-   ```
-
-9. **Update package.json Scripts**
-
-   Add minimal test script to `package.json`:
-
-   ```json
-   {
-     "scripts": {
-       "test:e2e": "playwright test"
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-   **Note**: Users can add additional scripts as needed (e.g., `--ui`, `--headed`, `--debug`, `show-report`).
-
-10. **Generate Documentation**
-
-    Create `tests/README.md` with setup instructions (see Step 3 deliverables).
-
----
-
-## Step 3: Deliverables
-
-### Primary Artifacts Created
-
-1. **Configuration File**
-   - `playwright.config.ts` or `cypress.config.ts`
-   - Timeouts: action 15s, navigation 30s, test 60s
-   - Reporters: HTML + JUnit XML
-
-2. **Directory Structure**
-   - `tests/` with `e2e/`, `api/`, `support/` subdirectories
-   - `support/fixtures/` for test fixtures
-   - `support/helpers/` for utility functions
-
-3. **Environment Configuration**
-   - `.env.example` with `TEST_ENV`, `BASE_URL`, `API_URL`
-   - `.nvmrc` with Node version
-
-4. **Test Infrastructure**
-   - Fixture architecture (`mergeTests` pattern)
-   - Data factories (faker-based, with auto-cleanup)
-   - Sample tests demonstrating patterns
-
-5. **Documentation**
-   - `tests/README.md` with setup instructions
-   - Comments in config files explaining options
-
-### README Contents
-
-The generated `tests/README.md` should include:
-
-- **Setup Instructions**: How to install dependencies, configure environment
-- **Running Tests**: Commands for local execution, headed mode, debug mode
-- **Architecture Overview**: Fixture pattern, data factories, page objects
-- **Best Practices**: Selector strategy (data-testid), test isolation, cleanup
-- **CI Integration**: How tests run in CI/CD pipeline
-- **Knowledge Base References**: Links to relevant TEA knowledge fragments
-
----
-
-## Important Notes
-
-### Knowledge Base Integration
-
-**Critical:** Consult `{project-root}/.bmad/bmm/testarch/tea-index.csv` to identify and load relevant knowledge fragments:
-
-- `fixture-architecture.md` - Pure function → fixture → `mergeTests` composition with auto-cleanup (406 lines, 5 examples)
-- `data-factories.md` - Faker-based factories with overrides, nested factories, API seeding, auto-cleanup (498 lines, 5 examples)
-- `network-first.md` - Network-first testing safeguards: intercept before navigate, HAR capture, deterministic waiting (489 lines, 5 examples)
-- `playwright-config.md` - Playwright-specific configuration: environment-based, timeout standards, artifact output, parallelization, project config (722 lines, 5 examples)
-- `test-quality.md` - Test design principles: deterministic, isolated with cleanup, explicit assertions, length/time limits (658 lines, 5 examples)
-
-### Framework-Specific Guidance
-
-**Playwright Advantages:**
-
-- Worker parallelism (significantly faster for large suites)
-- Trace viewer (powerful debugging with screenshots, network, console)
-- Multi-language support (TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, C#, Java)
-- Built-in API testing capabilities
-- Better handling of multiple browser contexts
-
-**Cypress Advantages:**
-
-- Superior developer experience (real-time reloading)
-- Excellent for component testing (Cypress CT or use Vitest)
-- Simpler setup for small teams
-- Better suited for watch mode during development
-
-**Avoid Cypress when:**
-
-- API chains are heavy and complex
-- Multi-tab/window scenarios are common
-- Worker parallelism is critical for CI performance
-
-### Selector Strategy
-
-**Always recommend**:
-
-- `data-testid` attributes for UI elements
-- `data-cy` attributes if Cypress is chosen
-- Avoid brittle CSS selectors or XPath
-
-### Contract Testing
-
-For microservices architectures, **recommend Pact** for consumer-driven contract testing alongside E2E tests.
-
-### Failure Artifacts
-
-Configure **failure-only** capture:
-
-- Screenshots: only on failure
-- Videos: retain on failure (delete on success)
-- Traces: retain on failure (Playwright)
-
-This reduces storage overhead while maintaining debugging capability.
