Quick Reference
Test Strategy: Unit tests (70%) for pure logic/algorithms. Integration tests (20%) for boundaries/APIs. E2E tests (10%) for critical user journeys only. Test behavior, not implementation. More tests resemble real usage = more confidence. 80% coverage sweet spot. Static analysis catches type errors.
Use When
- Planning test coverage
- Deciding what to test
