# Phase 1 — Validation Strategy

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

---

## Test Infrastructure

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **Framework** | go test |
| **Config file** | none — Wave 0 installs |
| **Quick run command** | `go test ./...` |
| **Full suite command** | `go test -v -race ./...` |
| **Estimated runtime** | ~10 seconds |

---

## Sampling Rate

- **After every task commit:** Run `go test ./...`
- **After every plan wave:** Run `go test -v -race ./...`
- **Before `/gsd-verify-work`:** Full suite must be green
- **Max feedback latency:** 10 seconds

## Per-Task Verification Map

| Task ID | Plan | Wave | Requirement | Threat Ref | Secure Behavior | Test Type | Automated Command | File Exists | Status |
|---------|------|------|-------------|------------|-----------------|-----------|-------------------|-------------|--------|
| 01-01-01 | 01 | 1 | INF-01 | — | N/A | unit | `go test ./cmd/hwlab/...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
| 01-01-02 | 01 | 1 | INF-02 | — | N/A | unit | `go test ./internal/config/...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
| 01-02-01 | 02 | 1 | NB-01 | — | N/A | integration | `go test ./internal/netbox/...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
| 01-02-02 | 02 | 1 | NB-02 | — | Custom fields round-trip | integration | `go test ./internal/netbox/...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
| 01-03-01 | 03 | 2 | NB-05 | — | N/A | integration | `go test ./internal/waq/...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |
| 01-03-02 | 03 | 2 | NB-06 | — | N/A | unit | `go test ./internal/qualitygate/...` | ❌ W0 | ⬜ pending |

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

## Wave 0 Requirements

- [ ] `go.mod` — Go module initialization
- [ ] Test infrastructure via `go test` (built-in)

*Existing Go test infrastructure covers all phase requirements.*

---

## Manual-Only Verifications

| Behavior | Requirement | Why Manual | Test Instructions |
|----------|-------------|------------|-------------------|
| NetBox custom fields provisioned | NB-02 | Requires NetBox admin UI | Verify fields exist via GET /api/extras/custom-fields/ |
| netbox-inventory plugin installed | NB-03 | Requires SSH to LXC | Check pip list in LXC 130 |
| Location hierarchy created | NB-04 | Requires NetBox admin UI | Verify via GET /api/dcim/locations/ |

---

## 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
