Test Strategy
Start from what failure would cost. Test effort follows consequence, not code volume.
Per level, what belongs there: logic in unit tests, contracts between components in integration tests, and only the critical journeys end to end. Anything tested at a higher level than necessary is slow and brittle for no gain.
Say what is deliberately not tested and why. An unstated gap is indistinguishable from an oversight.
Name the coverage target and what it does and does not tell you. Coverage measures execution, not assertion, and a high number with weak assertions is worse than an honest lower one.
Include what to do when a test fails intermittently — an unaddressed flaky test eventually disables the whole suite's credibility.
