What this skill does
QA Persona Testing Test a solution or app as a specific person from a specific group — an Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) or defined user segment — rather than as a QA engineer. The skill covers the full loop: find the profile (using sibling skills), set the persona up as an executable specification, drive the app through browser automation like that person would, and produce an improvement report with what to fix, what to avoid, and what to keep. This is persona simulation, not E2E test authoring. It finds friction, confusion, trust breaks, and abandonment; it does not replace assertion-based regression tests (qa-testing-playwright) or research with real users (software-ux-research).

"Run a synthetic user / persona-based walkthrough and tell me what to improve" Pre-launch UX sanity pass when real-user testing is not yet feasible Regression of a redesigned flow against the personas that matter commercially When NOT to Use Situation Use instead ----------- --------- …
