outside-in-testing (Alias)
outside-in-testing is now a compatibility alias for qa-team.
Use qa-team for all new work. This alias remains so existing workflows, recipes, and skills that still invoke outside-in-testing continue to resolve cleanly while the rename propagates.
See ../qa-team/README.md and ../qa-team/SKILL.md for the primary documentation.
