QA Skills — ISTQB skills pack for AI agents
Author / Open Source
Impact
Installs into any project with a single command and gives an AI agent the same methodological rigor an ISTQB-trained QA would apply by hand — without the team having to document it from scratch.
The problem
Without explicit guidance, an AI agent "invents" test cases from generic intuition: random coverage instead of formal techniques. The full QA cycle — story verification, case design, execution, defects, CI/CD, continuous improvement — is left without a consistent framework the agent can follow.
The approach
QA Skills is a pack of 11 installable "agent skills"
(npx skills add javalenciacai/QASkills) covering that full cycle, including
case design with ISTQB techniques: equivalence partitioning, boundary value
analysis, decision tables, state transitions. With the ISTQB design skill
loaded, the agent applies the same formal techniques a senior human QA
would use. An orchestrator (multi-agent-orchestration) decides which skill
applies to each task; if no installed skill covers what's asked, it escalates
to a discovery skill and, if that finds nothing either, to a skill that
generates a new one — an attempt to close its own capability gaps at
runtime, not just delegate to what already exists.
Result
MIT licensed. It's the repo with the most organic traction across the author's whole GitHub account: 5 stars and 3 forks. It installs into any project with a single command and gives an AI agent the same methodological rigor an ISTQB-trained QA would apply by hand — without the team having to document it from scratch.
