Production QA Artifacts

Production QA artifacts extend a manufacturing handoff package with test, assembly, and bring-up documentation.

Tool

easyeda_production_qa_artifacts

The tool is read-only. It generates Markdown and JSON artifacts from board metadata and does not call the EasyEDA bridge.

Generated artifacts

Role	Filename pattern	Purpose
testpoint-checklist	*-testpoint-checklist.md	Critical-net test access checklist
assembly-notes	*-assembly-notes.md	Polarity, DNP, side, and special handling notes
bringup-plan	*-bringup-plan.md	Bench bring-up and rail verification plan
production-qa-checklist	*-production-qa-checklist.md	Operator-facing QA checklist
qa-manifest	*-production-qa.json	Machine-readable QA package

Input example

{
  "projectId": "proj-qa",
  "projectName": "Sensor Board",
  "revision": "A1",
  "criticalNets": [
    { "name": "GND", "category": "ground", "hasTestPoint": true, "testPointRef": "TP1" },
    { "name": "3V3", "category": "power", "hasTestPoint": true, "testPointRef": "TP2" },
    { "name": "RESET", "category": "reset", "hasTestPoint": true, "testPointRef": "TP3" },
    { "name": "SWDIO", "category": "programming", "hasTestPoint": true, "testPointRef": "TP4" }
  ],
  "components": [

  ],
  "requiresProgramming": true,

  "requiresFunctionalTest": true
}

Findings

The generator emits structured issues for release blocking or review-required conditions:

Code	Severity	Meaning
QA_CRITICAL_NET_MISSING_TESTPOINT	error	Required critical net lacks declared test access
QA_PROGRAMMING_ACCESS_REQUIRED	error	Programming/debug access is required but missing
QA_POLARITY_NOTE_MISSING	warning	Polarized component lacks orientation note/mark metadata
QA_ASSEMBLY_HANDLING_NOTE_REQUIRED	warning	Board requires special handling notes
QA_BRINGUP_POWER_STEP_REQUIRED	info	Power-rail verification should be part of bring-up

Export manifest integration

Production QA artifacts can be required in a manufacturing export manifest using these roles:

ExportArtifactRole.TestpointChecklist;
ExportArtifactRole.AssemblyNotes;
ExportArtifactRole.BringupPlan;
ExportArtifactRole.ProductionQaChecklist;
ExportArtifactRole.QaManifest;

Example policy:

{
  "manufacturingPolicy": {
    "requiredRoles": [
      "testpoint-checklist",
      "assembly-notes",
      "bringup-plan",
      "production-qa-checklist",
      "qa-manifest"
    ]
  }
}

If a required QA role is missing, export manifest validation fails before the package is considered complete.
