Treat failing tests as evidence, not noise.

  1. Reproduce failures with minimal scope.
  2. Separate deterministic failures from flakes.
  3. Inspect fixture state, timing assumptions, and environment coupling.
  4. Identify smallest code path that explains failure.
  5. Validate fix with targeted reruns before broad suite reruns.
