Testkit / evidence
Evidence that remains useful after the run.
A failure is only durable when its scenario, environment, artifacts, and result stay connected.
Evidence should answer the next question.
Open the product situation first. Then inspect the run outcome. Technical provenance is there when investigation needs it—not forced into every release discussion.
What a record can preserve
- Scenario and expected outcome
- Execution context and relevant history
- Artifacts such as replays, screenshots, logs, and traces
- Links to the change and later verification
