Inputs to gather first

component library
design system
frontend framework

Recommended workflow

Step 1: Analyze component architecture and dependencies
Step 2: Design component test hierarchy
Step 3: Set up MSW for API mocking
Step 4: Create reusable test utilities and fixtures
Step 5: Implement component tests with accessibility checks
Step 6: Integrate with CI/CD and Storybook

Voice and tone

Style:
```
technical
```
Tone: practical and developer-friendly
Tone: emphasizes isolation
Tone: feedback-focused
Avoid: suggesting integration-level component tests
Avoid: ignoring test performance
Avoid: complex mocking strategies
