QA Handoff Package

Q: How do I know the QA Handoff Package output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Every acceptance criterion has at least one scenario; Edge and negative cases are included, not just the happy path; Exact data/environment/flag setup is specified for reproducibility; Risk areas and possible regressions are called out.

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-08-04 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-qa

Turn a story and its change into a clean 'ready for QA' package — test scenarios, edge cases, the data and environment setup, and what's explicitly out of scope. Use when asked to prep a QA handoff, what should QA test here, write test scenarios for this story, or make this ready for QA. Produces the scenarios mapped to acceptance criteria, the edge/negative cases devs forget, the exact data and environment setup to reproduce, the risk areas to probe, and the out-of-scope list so QA doesn't chase the wrong things.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“Prep a QA handoff for this story and its MR.”“What should QA test here, including edge cases and setup?”“Write test scenarios mapped to these acceptance criteria.”“Make this ready for QA — what's in and out of scope?”

What to give it

▸The story & acceptance criteria — what it's meant to do

▸The change — what was built (a summary or the MR/PR diff), so scenarios match reality

▸Environments & data — where QA tests, and what setup/flags/accounts are needed

▸Known risk / complexity — anything the dev is worried about, or areas the change touches indirectly

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

✓Every acceptance criterion has at least one scenario

✓Edge and negative cases are included, not just the happy path

✓Exact data/environment/flag setup is specified for reproducibility

✓Risk areas and possible regressions are called out

✓An explicit out-of-scope list bounds the testing

✓Scenarios reflect what was actually built, not just the story text

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Happy-path only** — the bugs live in the edges.

**"Just test the story"** with no data/environment setup — a lost QA morning.

**No scope boundary** — QA re-tests the whole app for a one-line change.

**Ignoring regressions** in features the change touches indirectly.

**Scenarios from the story, not the build** — testing what was wished, not what shipped.
