### Step 1: Map User Journeys to Test Scenarios
3334

Identify critical business processes (e.g., Lead β†’ Opportunity β†’ Quote β†’ Order). Map user journeys to testable flows and prioritize by risk:
35+
Before writing any test code, map critical business processes to testable scenarios. Use this template:
3536

36-
- HIGH: financial, compliance, data integrity across objects
37-
- MEDIUM: standard CRUD with automation (triggers, flows)
38-
- LOW: UI polish, optional fields
37+
```
38+
Journey: [Business Process Name]
39+
Trigger: [What starts the process β€” user action, API call, scheduled job]
40+
Objects: [All SObjects touched in sequence]
41+
Automation: [Triggers, Flows, Process Builders, Queueables involved]
42+
Integrations: [External callouts, Platform Events, CDC]
43+
Exit: [Expected end state β€” records, notifications, events]
44+
```
45+
46+
**Prioritize by risk:**
47+
48+
| Priority | Criteria | Examples |
49+
|----------|----------|---------|
50+
| **CRITICAL** | Financial, compliance, data integrity across 3+ objects | Order β†’ Invoice β†’ Payment, Lead conversion with territory assignment |
51+
| **HIGH** | Core CRUD with multi-step automation chains | Opportunity stage progression with approval process |
52+
| **MEDIUM** | Standard automation with single trigger/flow | Case escalation, Task auto-creation |
53+
| **LOW** | Read-only operations, reporting, optional fields | Dashboard refresh, field history tracking |
54+
55+
For each scenario, define these test dimensions:
56+
57+
| Dimension | What to Test |
58+
|-----------|-------------|
59+
| Happy path | Normal flow with valid data |
60+
| Bulk (200 records) | Trigger context maximum β€” catches non-bulkified code |
61+
| Bulk (10K records) | Batch/async context β€” catches governor limit issues at scale |
62+
| Null / empty inputs | Missing required relationships, blank fields |
63+
| Permission boundaries | Standard User, Community User, Admin β€” `System.runAs()` |
64+
| Cross-object integrity | Parent-child cascades, rollup summaries, lookup filters |
65+
| Async chain completion | Queueable β†’ Queueable chains, Batch β†’ Batch sequences |
66+
| Platform Event delivery | Publish β†’ Subscribe β†’ Side-effect verification |
67+
| Error recovery | DML failures, callout timeouts, partial success scenarios |
68+
69+
### Step 2: Create Test Data Architecture
70+
71+
Design a `TestDataFactory` that builds the complete object hierarchy for your E2E scenarios. This is the foundation β€” poor test data is the #1 cause of flaky E2E tests.
72+
73+
**Principles:**
74+
- Build data top-down: Account β†’ Contact β†’ Opportunity β†’ OpportunityLineItem
75+
- Use `@TestSetup` for the shared base hierarchy (runs once per test class)
76+
- Use `TestDataFactory` methods for scenario-specific variations
77+
- Never use `SeeAllData=true`
78+
- Never hardcode record IDs β€” query by Name or ExternalId
79+
- Create test users in `@TestSetup` with appropriate profiles/permission sets
3980

40-
For each scenario, define: happy path, edge cases (null inputs, 0 records, 200-record bulk), and governor limit boundaries.
81+
**Data volume targets:**

### Step 2: Create Apex E2E Tests
83+
| Context | Volume | Why |
84+
|---------|--------|-----|
85+
| Unit test | 1-5 records | Fast, isolated |
86+
| E2E trigger test | 200 records | Trigger context limit |
87+
| E2E batch test | 2,000+ records | Batch chunk processing |
88+
| E2E bulk load | 10,000+ records | Governor limit stress test (use Batch Apex in test) |
4389

44-
Use `@TestSetup` for shared data, `TestDataFactory` for all record creation, and `Test.startTest()`/`Test.stopTest()` to reset governor limits around the code under test.
90+
### Step 3: Create Apex E2E Tests
91+
92+
Use `Test.startTest()`/`Test.stopTest()` to reset governor limits around the code under test. This is critical for E2E tests where setup consumes significant limits.
93+
94+
**Key patterns for E2E:**
4595

46-
Key patterns:
4796
- `@TestSetup` β€” create the full data hierarchy once per class
4897
- `HttpCalloutMock` / `Test.setMock()` β€” mock all external callouts
4998
- `Test.getEventBus().deliver()` β€” force synchronous Platform Event delivery
5099
- `System.runAs()` β€” test permission-sensitive operations
100+
- `Limits.getQueries()` / `Limits.getDmlStatements()` β€” assert governor limit consumption

- Platform Event publish β†’ subscribe β†’ side-effect verification
106+
- Async job chains (Queueable β†’ Queueable completion)
107+
- Multi-user permission testing with `System.runAs()`

### Step 3: Create LWC Integration Tests

### Step 4: Create LWC Integration Tests
55111

56-
Use Jest with `@salesforce/apex` mocks. For imperative Apex calls use `jest.fn()` + `mockResolvedValue`. For `@wire`-decorated properties use `createApexTestWireAdapter` from `@salesforce/sfdx-lwc-jest`.
112+
Use Jest with `@salesforce/apex` mocks for LWC integration testing. E2E LWC tests differ from unit tests in that they exercise multi-component interaction and full data flow.
57113

58-
Always clean the DOM in `afterEach` and call `jest.clearAllMocks()`. See skill `sf-lwc-testing` for full wire adapter patterns.
114+
**E2E LWC test patterns:**
115+
- Parent-child component communication via events
116+
- Multiple wire adapters loading in sequence
117+
- Error state propagation (Apex throws β†’ component shows error)
118+
- Navigation after successful operations (`NavigationMixin`)
119+
- Toast notification assertions after DML operations

Run in scratch org for isolation. For CI, run multiple times at different hours to detect flakiness caused by async platform-side timing. Target: code coverage > 85% (75% minimum), all critical-path tests passing, zero flaky tests.

### Step 5: Handle Flaky Tests
159+
| Level | Target | When |
160+
|-------|--------|------|
161+
| Minimum | 75% | Salesforce deployment requirement |
162+
| Standard | 85% | Production-ready, covers major paths |
163+
| Comprehensive | 95%+ | Critical financial/compliance code |
164+
165+
### Step 6: Handle Flaky Tests
166+
167+
Flaky tests erode confidence in the test suite. Diagnose systematically:
168+
169+
| Root Cause | Symptom | Fix |
170+
|------------|---------|-----|
171+
| Async timing | Test passes sometimes, fails on platform lag | Ensure `Test.stopTest()` after enqueue; use `Test.getEventBus().deliver()` |
172+
| Order-dependent queries | Results vary across runs | Add explicit `ORDER BY` in test SOQL |
173+
| Sharing rule access | Works for admin, fails for test user | Use `System.runAs()` with appropriate profile |
174+
| Platform Events | Subscriber doesn't fire | Use `Test.getEventBus().deliver()` for synchronous delivery |
175+
| Mixed DML | Inserting User and business object in same transaction | Separate into different `System.runAs()` blocks |
176+
| Timezone sensitivity | Date comparisons fail in different orgs | Use `Date.today()` not hardcoded dates; use UTC for DateTime |
177+
| SOQL row ordering | Query returns different row first | Always `ORDER BY` and `LIMIT` in test queries |
178+
| Parallel test execution | Tests interfere with shared data | Use unique identifiers (timestamp + test name) in test data |
179+
180+
**Flaky test remediation process:**
181+
1. Run the failing test 5 times in isolation β€” if it passes consistently, the issue is test interference
182+
2. Run with `--synchronous` flag to disable parallel execution
183+
3. Check `ApexTestResult` for governor limit proximity (>80% of any limit = fragile)
184+
4. Add `System.debug` checkpoints at failure points and review debug logs
185+
186+
### Step 7: CI Integration
187+
188+
For CI pipelines, structure E2E tests to run in stages:
189+
190+
```
191+
Stage 1: LWC Jest (fast, local, no org needed)
192+
└── npm run test:unit -- --coverage
193+
194+
Stage 2: Apex Unit Tests (focused, fast)
195+
└── sf apex run test --class-names "UnitTest1,UnitTest2" --wait 10
196+
197+
Stage 3: Apex E2E Tests (slower, full integration)
198+
└── sf apex run test --test-level RunLocalTests --wait 15
199+
200+
Stage 4: Deploy Validation (pre-production gate)
201+
└── sf project deploy validate --test-level RunLocalTests --target-org staging
202+
```
203+
204+
For large orgs, use `RunRelevantTests` (API 66.0+) to run only tests affected by the changed metadata.
205+
206+
## E2E Test Organization
207+
208+
Name E2E test classes with the `E2E` suffix to distinguish from unit tests:
209+
210+
```
211+
force-app/test/default/classes/
212+
β”œβ”€β”€ unit/
213+
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ AccountServiceTest.cls
214+
β”‚ └── ContactTriggerHandlerTest.cls
215+
└── e2e/
216+
β”œβ”€β”€ LeadConversionE2ETest.cls
217+
β”œβ”€β”€ OrderFulfillmentE2ETest.cls
218+
└── CaseEscalationE2ETest.cls
219+
```
83220

84-
| Root Cause | Fix |
85-
|------------|-----|
86-
| Async timing (Queueable/Batch) | Ensure `Test.stopTest()` is called after enqueue |
87-
| Order-dependent queries | Add explicit `ORDER BY` in test SOQL |
88-
| Sharing rule access | Use `System.runAs()` with appropriate user profile |
89-
| Platform Events | Use `Test.getEventBus().deliver()` for synchronous delivery |
221+
Each E2E test class should:
222+
- Test one complete business workflow end-to-end
223+
- Have a `@TestSetup` method that builds the full data hierarchy
224+
- Include at minimum: happy path, bulk (200), and error/negative test methods
225+
- Assert on downstream side-effects (Tasks created, Events published, child records updated)

## Escalation
92228

93229
Stop and ask the human before:
94230
- Creating a new scratch org (may consume org limits or require specific definition files)
95231
- Running any operation that modifies or deletes real test data in a non-scratch org
96232
- Modifying an existing test class that already has passing tests β€” confirm intended scope first
233+
- Running tests against a production org (even read-only tests consume API limits)
97234

98235
Never proceed past an escalation point autonomously.
