Phase 26 — Validation Strategy

Per-phase validation contract for feedback sampling during execution.

---

Test Infrastructure

Property	Value
Framework	Bun test runner (built-in)
Config file	none — bun test auto-discovers *.test.ts
Quick run command	bun test tests/services/discovery.service.test.ts tests/routes/discovery.test.ts
Full suite command	bun test
Estimated runtime	~15 seconds

---

Sampling Rate

• After every task commit: Run bun test tests/services/discovery.service.test.ts tests/routes/discovery.test.ts
• After every plan wave: Run bun test
• Before /gsd:verify-work: Full suite must be green
• Max feedback latency: 15 seconds

Wave 0 Requirements

• tests/services/discovery.service.test.ts — stubs for DISC-02, DISC-03, DISC-04, INFR-02
• tests/routes/discovery.test.ts — stubs for DISC-02, DISC-03, DISC-04 route layer
• src/server/services/discovery.service.ts — new service file (stub)
• src/server/routes/discovery.ts — new route file (stub)

Existing infrastructure covers test helpers (createTestDb, in-memory Postgres via PGlite).

Manual-Only Verifications

Behavior	Requirement	Why Manual	Test Instructions
Hero search bar triggers CatalogSearchOverlay	DISC-01	Client interaction; E2E pending rewrite (999.1)	Load /, click search bar, verify overlay opens
"Go to Collection" CTA visible for authenticated users	DISC-05	Requires auth session; E2E pending rewrite	Log in, visit /, verify CTA present
"Go to Collection" CTA absent for anonymous	DISC-05	Requires anonymous session	Open incognito, visit /, verify no CTA

---

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
