Requirement-to-Testpoint Extraction

Problem

When reviewing long PRDs, user stories, or specs, manual test-point extraction is serial and uneven. Happy paths are often covered, while boundary values, exception paths, performance, security, and compatibility checks scatter across individuals’ experience, producing inconsistent coverage.

How It Works

The skill decomposes requirement documents into a module tree, then extracts business rules, interface dependencies, state transitions, and feature points. It then applies five dimensions to each module: functional validation, business-rule combinations, boundary conditions, exception scenarios, and non-functional inference. For example, file upload triggers checks for large files, unsafe file types, concurrent uploads, and interrupted recovery; payment or login triggers idempotency, privilege escalation, expired tokens, and brute-force protection. Finally, it deduplicates semantically, labels priorities as P0/P1/P2, and outputs a reviewable checklist.

Boundaries

It produces test points, not executable test scripts, and does not replace requirement review. Ambiguous or contradictory requirements reduce output quality, and domain-specific rules for finance, healthcare, or other regulated areas still need team input. Review P0 items first, then P1/P2, and remove scenarios that do not apply to the current project.
