# Phase 15 — Validation Strategy

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

## Test Infrastructure

| Property               | Value                                                         |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Framework**          | pytest 7.x                                                    |
| **Config file**        | `pyproject.toml`                                              |
| **Quick run command**  | `uv run --python 3.13 pytest tests/test_aion_oracle.py -x -q` |
| **Full suite command** | `uv run --python 3.13 pytest tests/test_aion_oracle.py -v`    |
| **Estimated runtime**  | ~5 seconds                                                    |

## Sampling Rate

- **After every task commit:** Run `uv run --python 3.13 pytest tests/test_aion_oracle.py -x -q`
- **After every plan wave:** Run `uv run --python 3.13 pytest tests/test_aion_oracle.py -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     |
| -------- | ---- | ---- | ----------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------- | ---------- |
| 15-01-01 | 01   | 1    | VAL-01      | unit      | `uv run --python 3.13 pytest tests/test_aion_oracle.py::test_single_day_equivalence -v` | ❌ W0       | ⬜ pending |
| 15-01-02 | 01   | 1    | VAL-02      | unit      | `uv run --python 3.13 pytest tests/test_aion_oracle.py::test_multi_day_continuity -v`   | ❌ W0       | ⬜ pending |
| 15-01-03 | 01   | 1    | VAL-03      | unit      | `uv run --python 3.13 pytest tests/test_aion_oracle.py::test_gap_flag_lifecycle -v`     | ❌ W0       | ⬜ pending |

_Status: ⬜ pending · ✅ green · ❌ red · ⚠️ flaky_

---

## Wave 0 Requirements

- [ ] `tests/test_aion_oracle.py` — stubs for VAL-01, VAL-02, VAL-03

_Existing infrastructure covers all framework requirements._

---

## Manual-Only Verifications

_All phase behaviors have automated verification._

---

## 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
