# User Journey Testing

## Purpose
Validate work through a realistic user path.

## When to Use
Use for UX, tool workflows, onboarding, and generated instructions.

## Inputs
User goal, steps, expected result, viewport/tool/runtime context.

## Steps
1. State the user's goal.
2. Walk the end-to-end steps.
3. Record friction, failure, or confusion.
4. Update instructions or mark blockers.

## Gates
The journey either succeeds or has a clear blocker and next action.

## Evidence
Journey notes, screenshots when safe, command output, or report.

## Anti-Patterns
Testing only implementation internals and ignoring the user outcome.
