Output Folders

The pipeline writes into these folders inside your project. All folders are created automatically on first run.

Folder structure

Folder	File	Description
logs/	pipeline-latest.log	Most recent run's structured logs — always overwritten
logs/	pipeline-<issueId>-<date>.log	Per-run archive — one file per execution
reports/	tc-mapping-<issueId>.json	Maps TC IDs to Xray/TestRail keys — used for re-run detection
reports/	results-<issueId>.json	Pass/fail per TC with heal details
reports/	pw-results-<issueId>.json	Raw Playwright JSON reporter output
test-cases/	TC-<issueId>-<slug>.md	Generated test cases before TMS push
tests/generated/	<slug>.spec.ts	Generated Playwright/Cypress spec

Gitignore

The project .gitignore excludes all generated artifacts by default:

logs/
test-results/
reports/results*.json
reports/pw-results*.json
reports/tc-mapping*.json
test-cases/TC-*.md
tests/generated/

To commit generated artifacts for an audit trail, remove the relevant lines from .gitignore.

Re-run detection

reports/tc-mapping-<issueId>.json is the key file for re-run detection. If it exists when you run /qa-pipeline again with the same --id, the pipeline knows TCs were already pushed to the TMS and will ask whether to re-run or regenerate.

Delete this file to force a full regeneration from scratch.
