Phase 14 — Validation Strategy

Per-phase validation contract for feedback sampling during execution.

---

Test Infrastructure

Property	Value
Framework	bun test
Config file	none — uses bun built-in test runner
Quick run command	bun test tests/
Full suite command	bun test tests/
Estimated runtime	~10 seconds

---

Sampling Rate

• After every task commit: Run bun test tests/
• After every plan wave: Run bun test tests/
• Before /gsd:verify-work: Full suite must be green
• Max feedback latency: 10 seconds

Wave 0 Requirements

• tests/helpers/db.ts — Rewrite to use PGlite instead of bun:sqlite
• Existing test files updated from sync to async patterns

Test infrastructure exists but needs migration from SQLite to PGlite.

---

Manual-Only Verifications

Behavior	Requirement	Why Manual	Test Instructions
SQLite data migration preserves all records	DB-04	One-time script, not automatable in CI	Run migration script against test SQLite DB, verify row counts match
Docker Compose starts Postgres	DB-05	Requires Docker runtime	Run docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d, verify pg_isready

---

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 < 10s
• nyquist_compliant: true set in frontmatter

Approval: pending
