Failure classification

Failure classification keeps a test suite useful. Qodex does not treat every red run as a product bug. It first decides whether the failure is a real bug, a stale test, or an environment issue.

The three classes

Why this matters

Without classification, a renamed button, a staging outage, and a real authentication regression all look the same. That creates noisy reports and missed bugs. With classification:

• Selector drift becomes a stale-test task.
• Staging downtime becomes an environment note.
• Product regressions become findings.

Security note

For security scenarios, the classifier still runs first. If the failure is a real bug, security rules then interpret it with inverted semantics: fail means the app allowed the attack.
