test-automation-strategy

Automation + regression strategy. ROI-driven candidate selection, pyramid discipline (~70/15/8/5/2 for unit/component/integration/contract/E2E) with ice-cream-cone anti-pattern flagged, framework + tooling per level (one-per-level rule), shared fixtures + page objects, flakiness policy (detect/quarantine/root-cause/30-day age-out), CI integration (shard+parallel, timeouts, matrix, PR <10min), regression strategies (full/nightly/impact-based TIA/smoke+full/prod canary), contract testing with Pact, visual + a11y automation.
