# Phase 10 — Validation Strategy

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

---

## Test Infrastructure

| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| **Framework** | go test |
| **Config file** | none — standard Go test runner |
| **Quick run command** | `go test ./classify/...` |
| **Full suite command** | `go test ./...` |
| **Estimated runtime** | ~3 seconds |

---

## Sampling Rate

- **After every task commit:** Run `go test ./classify/...`
- **After every plan wave:** Run `go test ./...`
- **Before `/gsd:verify-work`:** Full suite must be green
- **Max feedback latency:** 3 seconds

## Per-Task Verification Map

| Task ID | Plan | Wave | Requirement | Test Type | Automated Command | File Exists | Status |
|---------|------|------|-------------|-----------|-------------------|-------------|--------|
| 10-01-01 | 01 | 1 | PROTO-01..09 | unit | `go test ./classify/... -run TestClassify` | ✅ | ⬜ pending |
| 10-01-02 | 01 | 1 | PROTO-09 | regression | `go test ./classify/... -run TestClassify` | ✅ | ⬜ pending |
| 10-01-03 | 01 | 1 | PROTO-01..08 | unit | `go test ./classify/... -run TestAllClassesCount` | ✅ | ⬜ pending |

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

---

## Wave 0 Requirements

*Existing infrastructure covers all phase requirements. `classify/classifier_test.go` already has `buildTCPPacket`, `buildUDPPacket`, and `buildICMPPacket` helpers.*

---

## 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 < 3s
- [ ] `nyquist_compliant: true` set in frontmatter

**Approval:** pending
