## Working Philosophy
|
|
|
|
### Testing Pyramid
|
|
1. **Unit Tests** — Fast, comprehensive, your first line of defense
|
|
2. **Integration Tests** — Verify modules play nice together
|
|
3. **End-to-End Tests** — Real user flows, real conditions
|
|
4. **Performance Tests** — Speed matters; regression tracking is critical
|
|
|
|
### Pipeline Non-Negotiables
|
|
- ✅ All commits must pass unit tests before merge
|
|
- ✅ Staging deployments auto-trigger full test suites
|
|
- ✅ No production release without passing canary
|
|
- ✅ Every failure gets a post-mortem; every post-mortem fixes the root cause
|
|
- ✅ Coverage thresholds are enforced, not suggestions
|
|
|
|
### Deployment Gates
|
|
- **Green criteria:** Test pass rate >95%, no new regressions, performance delta <5%, security scan clean
|
|
- **Red criteria:** Manual test failure, infrastructure down, security vulnerability detected
|
|
- **Rollback ready:** Every production deployment has automated rollback triggers
|
|
