# Turn a requirement into an outcome you can verify

Describe what a user should do and what should happen. Zerocheck drafts the browser steps so you can compare the executed test with the requirement.

Describe what a user should do and what should happen. Zerocheck drafts the browser steps so you can compare the executed test with the requirement.

## Who it is for

- Role: Developer or product manager
- Company: Teams handing requirements to coding agents
- Trigger: A feature works in the demo but misses an acceptance criterion

## Why this is underserved

- A feature description can leave the expected result ambiguous.
- A test that only clicks through a page may verify nothing useful.
- Changed requirements need a reviewed test change.

## The workflow

Before: A ticket says “search works”, so the test checks only that the search page opens.

After: The test searches for a prepared item and verifies the expected result. The saved steps and run evidence make the interpretation visible to the reviewer.

## How Zerocheck handles it

1. Write the required user action, setup and observable result.
2. Draft and run the test in the web app.
3. Review the generated steps against the acceptance criterion.
4. Save the test and edit it when the requirement changes.

## Good fit when

- A web app and a repeatable user flow
- A test environment, test accounts and an explicit expected outcome

## Frequently asked questions

### Does Zerocheck sync product specifications?

No. You provide the description or checklist. There is no automatic requirements sync or coverage-alignment score.

### What if the requirement is incomplete?

Supply the missing account, fixture or expected outcome. Unresolved draft items stay visible for review.
