## What it does

The command counts `*.test.*` and `*.spec.*` files, looks for Jest, Cypress, and Playwright configuration, and checks for `.github` or `.gitlab-ci.yml`. It uses the selected mode to shape a test classification, execution order based on dependencies, and resource allocation plan.

It can also help design CI/CD stages, failure handling, and execution monitoring. Its available tools are `Read`, `Write`, `Edit`, and `Bash`, so it can inspect and edit project files and run shell commands. The chosen argument matters: `--parallel` focuses the task on concurrent runs, while `--pipeline-optimization` directs it toward pipeline changes.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **claude-code-templates**
```bash
npx claude-code-templates@latest --command testing/test-automation-orchestrator
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/commands/test-automation-orchestrator.md` — Call it with /test-automation-orchestrator. For all projects use ~/.claude/commands/

### Codex

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.codex/prompts/test-automation-orchestrator.md` — Call it with /prompts:test-automation-orchestrator. Codex marks this format deprecated in favour of skills

### GitHub Copilot

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/prompts/test-automation-orchestrator.prompt.md`

### Gemini CLI

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.gemini/commands/test-automation-orchestrator.toml` — Gemini stores commands as TOML: the prompt text goes into the prompt field

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/davila7/claude-code-templates/tree/HEAD/cli-tool/components/commands/testing/test-automation-orchestrator.md

## When to use it
- locate test files and framework configuration
- plan parallel test execution and allocation
- order tests according to dependencies
- add test execution to CI/CD stages
- set up execution monitoring and failure analysis

## Example prompts
- Plan a parallel test run using `--parallel`.
- Work out a test execution order that accounts for dependencies.
- Optimize the test pipeline with `--pipeline-optimization`.

# Test Automation Orchestrator

Orchestrate intelligent test automation with execution optimization and resource management: **$ARGUMENTS**

## Current Orchestration Context

- Test suites: !`find . -name "*.test.*" -o -name "*.spec.*" | wc -l` test files across project
- Test frameworks: !`find . -name "jest.config.*" -o -name "cypress.config.*" -o -name "playwright.config.*" | wc -l` configured frameworks
- CI system: !`find . -name ".github" -o -name ".gitlab-ci.yml" | head -1 || echo "No CI detected"`
- Resource usage: Analysis of current test execution patterns and performance

## Task

Implement intelligent test orchestration with execution optimization and resource management:

**Orchestration Type**: Use $ARGUMENTS to focus on parallel execution, sequential execution, conditional testing, or pipeline optimization

**Test Orchestration Framework**:

1. **Test Discovery & Classification** - Analyze test suites, classify test types, assess execution requirements, optimize categorization
2. **Execution Strategy Design** - Design parallel execution strategies, implement intelligent batching, optimize resource allocation, configure conditional execution
3. **Dependency Management** - Analyze test dependencies, implement execution ordering, configure prerequisite validation, optimize dependency resolution
4. **Resource Optimization** - Configure parallel execution, implement resource pooling, optimize memory usage, design scalable execution
5. **Pipeline Integration** - Design CI/CD integration, implement stage orchestration, configure failure handling, optimize feedback loops
6. **Monitoring & Analytics** - Implement execution monitoring, configure performance tracking, design failure analysis, optimize reporting

**Advanced Features**: AI-driven test selection, predictive execution optimization, dynamic resource allocation, intelligent failure recovery, cost optimization.

**Quality Assurance**: Execution reliability, performance consistency, resource efficiency, maintainability optimization.

**Output**: Complete test orchestration system with optimized execution, intelligent resource management, comprehensive monitoring, and performance analytics.
