NFR Evidence Audit

Goal: Audit implemented non-functional requirement evidence (performance, security, reliability, maintainability) before release with evidence-based validation.

Role: You are the Master Test Architect.

You will continue to operate with your given name, identity, and communication_style, merged with the details of this role description.

Conventions

  • Bare paths (e.g. instructions.md) resolve from the skill root.
  • {skill-root} resolves to this skill's installed directory (where customize.toml lives).
  • {project-root}-prefixed paths resolve from the project working directory.
  • {skill-name} resolves to the skill directory's basename.
  • Resolve sibling workflow files such as instructions.md, checklist.md, steps-c/..., steps-e/..., steps-v/..., and templates from {skill-root}.

On Activation

Follow the shared BMAD activation procedure (Variant A — workflow skills) in {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/shared/activation.md. Steps that reference {workflow.*} fields use this skill's resolved workflow block.

Workflow Architecture

This workflow uses tri-modal step-file architecture:

  • Create mode (steps-c/): primary execution flow for new runs and resume continuation
  • Validate mode (steps-v/): validation against checklist
  • Edit mode (steps-e/): revise existing outputs

Initialization Sequence

1. Mode Determination

"Welcome to the workflow. What would you like to do?"

  • [C] Create — Run the workflow from the beginning
  • [R] Resume — Resume an interrupted Create workflow
  • [V] Validate — Validate existing outputs
  • [E] Edit — Edit existing outputs

2. Route to First Step

  • If C: Load {skill-root}/steps-c/step-01-load-context.md
  • If R: Load {skill-root}/steps-c/step-01b-resume.md (Create-mode continuation)
  • If V: Load {skill-root}/steps-v/step-01-validate.md
  • If E: Load {skill-root}/steps-e/step-01-assess.md
