# Phase 3 — Validation Strategy

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

---

## Test Infrastructure

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **Framework** | pytest 8.x |
| **Config file** | none — discovered via standard pytest directory scan |
| **Quick run command** | `pytest tests/test_printer_crud.py -x -q` |
| **Full suite command** | `pytest tests/ -v` |
| **Estimated runtime** | ~5 seconds |

---

## Sampling Rate

- **After every task commit:** Run `pytest tests/test_printer_crud.py -x -q`
- **After every plan wave:** Run `pytest tests/ -v`
- **Before `/gsd:verify-work`:** Full suite must be green
- **Max feedback latency:** 5 seconds

## Per-Task Verification Map

| Task ID | Plan | Wave | Requirement | Test Type | Automated Command | File Exists | Status |
|---------|------|------|-------------|-----------|-------------------|-------------|--------|
| 03-01-01 | 01 | 1 | PRNT-01, PRNT-02 | integration | `pytest tests/test_printer_crud.py::test_create_printer_persisted -x` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
| 03-01-02 | 01 | 1 | PRNT-04 | integration | `pytest tests/test_printer_crud.py::test_create_printer_duplex -x` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
| 03-01-03 | 01 | 1 | PRNT-05 | integration | `pytest tests/test_printer_crud.py::test_create_printer_color_mode -x` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |

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

## Wave 0 Requirements

- [ ] `tests/test_printer_crud.py` — stubs for PRNT-01 through PRNT-10 (integration tests)
- [ ] `tests/test_client_crud.py` — stubs for client creation and listing (can merge into test_printer_crud.py)

*Existing infrastructure covers framework and conftest.py — no new infrastructure needed.*

---

## Manual-Only Verifications

| Behavior | Requirement | Why Manual | Test Instructions |
|----------|-------------|------------|-------------------|
| Alpine.js auto-populates port name from IP | PRNT-03 | Browser-side Alpine.js reactivity cannot be tested with pytest TestClient | 1. Open /printers/new 2. Type "192.168.1.100" in IP field 3. Verify port field shows "IP_192_168_1_100" 4. Edit port field manually 5. Change IP field 6. Verify port field keeps manual value |

---

## 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 < 5s
- [ ] `nyquist_compliant: true` set in frontmatter

**Approval:** pending
