doc-ftest

Purpose

Create Functional Test Specifications (FTEST) for system-level quality attribute validation (Performance, Reliability, Security, Scalability) as a Layer 10 TSPEC subtype.

Layer: 10

Subtype Code: 43 (TSPEC.NN.43.SS )

Canonical References

Before authoring FTEST, read:

• ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/FTEST/FTEST-MVP-TEMPLATE.md

• ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/FTEST/FTEST-MVP-TEMPLATE.yaml

• ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/FTEST/FTEST_MVP_CREATION_RULES.md

• ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/FTEST/FTEST_MVP_VALIDATION_RULES.md

• ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/FTEST/FTEST_MVP_SCHEMA.yaml

When to Use

Use doc-ftest when:

• You are creating or editing FTEST-only artifacts.

• @sys and @threshold constraints are primary.

• Quality-attribute threshold validation is the core objective.

Use doc-tspec instead when:

• Multi-subtype orchestration is required (UTEST/ITEST/STEST/FTEST/PTEST/SECTEST).

• Cross-subtype normalization or batch TSPEC work is primary.

FTEST Contract (MVP)

Required Structure

FTEST follows a 6-section contract:

• Document Control

• Test Scope

• Test Case Index

• Test Case Details

• SYS Coverage Matrix

• Traceability

Required Tags

• Cumulative Layer-10 tags: @brd , @prd , @ears , @bdd , @adr , @sys , @req , @spec (+ @ctr if exists)

• Type-specific required tags: @sys , @threshold

Threshold and Coverage

• TASKS-Ready threshold: >=90%

• SYS coverage target: template-aligned (>=85% baseline)

Folder Rule

Use nested folder structure:

• docs/10_TSPEC/FTEST/FTEST-NN_{slug}/FTEST-NN_{slug}.md

Validation Commands

FTEST subtype validation

python ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/scripts/validate_ftest.py docs/10_TSPEC/FTEST/

Layer-wide TSPEC validation

bash ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/scripts/validate_all_tspec.sh docs/10_TSPEC/

Quality score validation

bash ai_dev_ssd_flow/10_TSPEC/scripts/validate_tspec_quality_score.sh docs/10_TSPEC/

Cross-document validation

python ai_dev_ssd_flow/scripts/validate_cross_document.py --document docs/10_TSPEC/FTEST/FTEST-NN_slug/FTEST-NN_slug.md --auto-fix

Cumulative tag validation

python ai_dev_ssd_flow/scripts/validate_tags_against_docs.py --artifact FTEST-NN --expected-layers brd,prd,ears,bdd,adr,sys,req,spec --strict

Output Quality Gate

• No schema/structure blockers.

• All required FTEST sections present.

• @threshold mappings are explicit for measurable criteria.

• Traceability includes required cumulative tags.

• Report references use versioned naming where applicable.
