+# Exclude Current Post E2E Tests
+
+This test suite covers the "Exclude Current Post" control functionality in the Advanced Query Loop block.
+
+## Test Coverage
+
+### ✅ Tests for Regular Posts
+
+1. **Initial state** - Verifies the control is visible and unchecked by default
+2. **Toggle on** - Verifies toggling the control on stores `true` in block attributes
+3. **Toggle off** - Verifies toggling the control off stores `false` in block attributes
+4. **Not disabled** - Verifies the control is enabled in regular posts
+
+## Running the Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run all exclude current post tests
+npm run test:e2e -- tests/exclude-current-post.spec.ts
+
+# Run with UI
+npm run test:e2e:ui -- tests/exclude-current-post.spec.ts
+```
+
+## Future Test Additions
+
+The following test scenarios were planned but require additional setup/configuration:
+
+### Templates
+- Should be disabled in archive template
+- Should be disabled in search template
+- Should be disabled in home/front-page templates (when show_on_front is 'posts')
+- Should be enabled in single template
+- Should work in single template and store boolean value
+
+### Synced Patterns
+- Should be visible and functional in a synced pattern
+- Synced pattern with exclude current should work when inserted in a post
+
+These tests require:
+- Proper theme configuration in the test environment
+- Site Editor navigation that works reliably with Playground
+- Pattern creation workflow that's compatible with the test environment
+
+## Test Structure
+
+All tests follow the same pattern:
+1. Initialize Playground with blueprint
+2. Visit post editor
+3. Insert AQL block with custom query
+4. Interact with "Exclude Current Post" control
+5. Assert expected behavior
+6. Clean up Playground instance
+
+## Notes
+
+- Tests use WordPress Playground via `@wp-playground/cli` for isolated testing
+- Each test gets a fresh WordPress instance
+- The `insertAQL` utility handles block insertion and variation selection
+- Tests verify both UI state and block attributes
