# Phase 22 — Validation Strategy

> Per-phase validation contract for feedback sampling during execution.

---

## Test Infrastructure

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **Framework** | bun test + Playwright |
| **Config file** | `bunfig.toml` / `playwright.config.ts` |
| **Quick run command** | `bun test` |
| **Full suite command** | `bun test && bun run test:e2e` |
| **Estimated runtime** | ~15 seconds (unit) + ~60 seconds (e2e) |

---

## Sampling Rate

- **After every task commit:** Run `bun test`
- **After every plan wave:** Run `bun test && bun run test:e2e`
- **Before `/gsd:verify-work`:** Full suite must be green
- **Max feedback latency:** 15 seconds

## Per-Task Verification Map

| Task ID | Plan | Wave | Requirement | Test Type | Automated Command | File Exists | Status |
|---------|------|------|-------------|-----------|-------------------|-------------|--------|
| 22-01-01 | 01 | 1 | CATFLOW-03 | unit | `bun test tests/services/item.service.test.ts` | TBD | ⬜ pending |
| 22-01-02 | 01 | 1 | CATFLOW-05 | unit | `bun test tests/services/thread.service.test.ts` | TBD | ⬜ pending |
| 22-01-03 | 01 | 1 | CATFLOW-06 | unit | `bun test tests/services/thread.service.test.ts` | TBD | ⬜ pending |
| 22-02-01 | 02 | 2 | CATFLOW-03 | e2e | `bun run test:e2e` | TBD | ⬜ pending |
| 22-02-02 | 02 | 2 | CATFLOW-05 | e2e | `bun run test:e2e` | TBD | ⬜ pending |

*Status: ⬜ pending · ✅ green · ❌ red · ⚠️ flaky*

---

## Wave 0 Requirements

*Existing infrastructure covers all phase requirements. Backend already supports globalItemId on items and candidates. No new test framework needed.*

---

## Manual-Only Verifications

| Behavior | Requirement | Why Manual | Test Instructions |
|----------|-------------|------------|-------------------|
| Add-to-collection modal UX flow | CATFLOW-03 | Modal interaction, visual confirmation | Open catalog search, click Add, verify modal shows category picker + notes, submit and verify toast |
| Thread picker displays active threads | CATFLOW-05 | UI state interaction | Open catalog search in thread mode, click Add, verify thread dropdown shows active threads |
| Combined thread creation + candidate add | CATFLOW-05 | Multi-step UI flow | From FAB "Start Thread", search, click Add on first item, verify thread creation + candidate in one step |

---

## Validation Sign-Off

- [ ] All tasks have `<automated>` verify or Wave 0 dependencies
- [ ] Sampling continuity: no 3 consecutive tasks without automated verify
- [ ] Wave 0 covers all MISSING references
- [ ] No watch-mode flags
- [ ] Feedback latency < 15s
- [ ] `nyquist_compliant: true` set in frontmatter

**Approval:** pending
