Produce a multi-quarter QA strategy document. Covers scope, risk-based prioritization, test levels (unit/integration/E2E), pyramid analysis, entry/exit criteria, quality KPIs, tool selection rationale, CI scaling levers, and timeline planning. Output is an actionable strategy document, not a shelf document. Use when: "test strategy," "QA strategy doc," "testing approach," "QA roadmap," "multi-quarter QA direction." Not for: a single-sprint or single-release plan — use test-planning. Not for…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
<objective> Generate an actionable QA strategy tailored to the product, team, and risk profile — a document that drives daily testing decisions, not a compliance artifact that collects dust. A team with 150 E2E tests and a 52-minute pipeline thinks it has good coverage; this skill diagnoses the inverted pyramid, prescribes the rebalance, and ties every element to a measurable KPI. </objective> --- ## Discovery Questions Before writing a single line of strategy, gather context.

(signup, checkout, payment, data export) - What is the release cadence? (continuous, weekly, bi-weekly, quarterly) - What compliance requirements exist? (SOC2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, GDPR, EU AI Act) ### Current Testing State - What test levels exist today, and the current count at each level? - What frameworks and tools are in use? …

How to install
mdr add petrkindlmann/qa-skills/test-strategy@sha256:55705abedf1b2d27The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
