Kiss Test Execution

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

Audience and tone (interactive mode)

When KISS_AGENT_MODE=interactive (the default), assume the user has limited technical background and limited domain knowledge — they may know basics but lack deep expertise in this skill's area. Run this skill as a guided questionnaire:

• One question at a time. No walls of questions.
• Yes / no first. Phrase so yes, no, not sure, or skip is a valid answer.
• Translate jargon, don't strip it. Use the technical term but always pair it with a plain-English gloss the first time it appears.
• Choices, not blank fields. When yes/no isn't enough, offer 2-4 lettered options (A/B/C/D) with one-line plain-language descriptions of the trade-off. Always include "Not sure — pick a sensible default".
• Always recommend. State the option you would pick and why in one sentence so the user can reply "yes" / "ok" to accept. Pull defaults from upstream artefacts (spec, architecture, ADRs, standards) before asking blank.
• Show, don't ask. When upstream artefacts already imply an answer, propose it as a pre-filled finding and ask for a yes / no confirmation rather than asking the user to fill in a blank.
• not sure / skip triggers a sensible default, marked "(default applied — confirm later)" in the artefact, and a debt entry in this skill's debt file.

When KISS_AGENT_MODE=auto (or --auto), skip the questionnaire entirely: apply sensible defaults from upstream artefacts and log decisions to the parent agent's decision log.

Inputs

• .kiss/context.yml
• {context.paths.docs}/testing/<feature>/test-cases.md
• Raw results the user pastes in or points at (JUnit XML, TAP, plain text)

Outputs

• {context.paths.docs}/testing/<feature>/execution.md — one section per run.
• {context.paths.docs}/testing/<feature>/execution.extract — last-run summary.

Context Update

Does not mutate .kiss/context.yml.

Handoffs

• kiss-bug-report reads the failed TC id to link the bug back to the execution run.
• kiss-status-report reads the last-run summary.

AI authoring scope

Does: append a dated section to the execution ledger, summarise counts, mark cases pass/fail/skipped, link failures to bug reports, never delete previous runs.

Does not: execute tests, generate results, modify code.
