Smoke Test Runner Skill

Quick Reference - Orchestrates all smoke test categories

Mission

Orchestrate execution of all smoke test categories (API, Database, External Services, Auth, Critical Paths) in the correct order with early exit on failure.

Core Capabilities

• Sequential Execution: Execute smoke tests in dependency order
• Early Exit: Stop on first failure to save time
• Skill Invocation: Invoke specialized smoke test skills
• Result Aggregation: Collect and report all test results
• Performance Tracking: Track execution time per category

Execution Order

1. API Health (2-3 minutes): Validate API endpoints responding
2. Database (1-2 minutes): Verify database connectivity and health
3. External Services (2-3 minutes): Test third-party integrations
4. Auth (1-2 minutes): Validate authentication and authorization
5. Critical Paths (3-5 minutes): Test end-to-end user journeys

Total Target: ≤15 minutes (all 5 categories)

Quick Start

const { SmokeTestRunner } = require('./scripts/orchestrate-smoke-tests.js');

const runner = new SmokeTestRunner({
  environment: 'staging',
  stopOnFirstFailure: true
});

const result = await runner.executeAll();

if (result.passed) {
  console.log('✅ All smoke tests passed');
  console.log(`Total time: ${result.totalDuration}ms`);
}

Pass/Fail Criteria

Pass: All 5 smoke test categories must pass

• ✅ API health checks passing
• ✅ Database connectivity and integrity validated
• ✅ External services responding
• ✅ Auth flows working correctly
• ✅ Critical paths completing successfully

Fail: Any category failure blocks deployment

• ❌ Any smoke test category fails
• ❌ Execution exceeds timeout (15 minutes)

Output Format

{
  passed: true,
  totalDuration: 850000,  // 14 minutes 10 seconds
  categoriesExecuted: 5,
  categoriesPassed: 5,
  categoriesFailed: 0,
  results: {
    api: { passed: true, duration: 180000 },
    database: { passed: true, duration: 120000 },
    externalServices: { passed: true, duration: 200000 },
    auth: { passed: true, duration: 100000 },
    criticalPaths: { passed: true, duration: 250000 }
  }
}
