Phase 10 — Validation Strategy

Per-phase validation contract for feedback sampling during execution.

Test Infrastructure

Property	Value
Framework	xUnit 2.9.3 + Moq 4.20.72
Config file	SharepointToolbox.Tests/SharepointToolbox.Tests.csproj
Quick run command	dotnet test --filter "Category=Unit" --no-build
Full suite command	dotnet test
Estimated runtime	~15 seconds

---

Sampling Rate

• After every task commit: Run dotnet test --filter "Category=Unit" --no-build
• After every plan wave: Run dotnet test
• Before /gsd:verify-work: Full suite must be green
• Max feedback latency: 15 seconds

Wave 0 Requirements

• SharepointToolbox.Tests/Services/BrandingRepositoryTests.cs — stubs for BRAND-01 persistence round-trip
• SharepointToolbox.Tests/Services/BrandingServiceTests.cs — stubs for BRAND-06 magic bytes, compression, rejection
• SharepointToolbox.Tests/Services/GraphUserDirectoryServiceTests.cs — stubs for UDIR-02 pagination
• Extend SharepointToolbox.Tests/Services/ProfileServiceTests.cs — add BRAND-03 ClientLogo round-trip test

Existing infrastructure covers test framework setup.

Manual-Only Verifications

Behavior	Requirement	Why Manual	Test Instructions
MSP logo survives app restart	BRAND-01	Requires full app lifecycle (start, import, close, reopen)	1. Run app, import MSP logo 2. Close app 3. Reopen app 4. Verify logo still present in branding.json
Client logo isolated between tenants	BRAND-03	Requires multi-profile JSON inspection	1. Import logo for Tenant A 2. Verify Tenant B profile has no logo field 3. Delete Tenant A logo 4. Verify Tenant B unaffected

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
