Verification

Legacy regression suite: 8/8 calculation tests · Production surface contract 4/4

Three distinct suites: educational examples on the calculator page, this legacy regression count (8/8 golden + boundary), and the CVP verification suite below. They are not the same number. Property, metamorphic, round-trip, O3, and interface statuses/checks are recorded in the CVP Manifest . SKIP (0/0) means that suite has no published vectors.

CVP verification suite

Protocol checks from the Evidence Manifest. Distinct from the legacy regression suite above. Verification revision 2026-09-16.o2-o3. Calculation version 1.0.0. CVP 1.0.0-proposed. 5/5 golden · 4/4 CVP boundary · 7/7 invalid · 3/3 property · 2/2 metamorphic · 8/8 O3 · 4/4 cross-interface · 4/4 CVP contract. digest 083418691428. O2: GUM G.4.2 ν = ½(u/σ(u))² vs separate-module identities (≤2 ULP). Not Type B u_B, not Welch ν_eff, not U=k·u_c. ≤2 ULP vs O3 applies only to the published tabulated G.4.2 vectors (GUM 25%, infinite, 10%, aliases, scale, σ(u)/u=0.5). It is not a whole-domain guarantee and does not cover Welch ν_eff or U=k·u_c.

  • CVP boundary 4 / 4
  • Invalid input 7 / 7

  • Metamorphic 2 / 2
  • O3 high-precision 8 / 8
  • Cross-interface 4 / 4

  • Interfaces PASS · UI (SSR) / REST / MCP
  • Interface claim ui-ssr is query-result HTML, not a live browser session. Error-path engine·REST·MCP 1/1 (status, code, calculation_version). SSR compared on URL-canonical requested calculations; empty query is idle (not an error) and JSON-typed object/array inputs are REST/MCP-only.

  • Deferred Not Type B u_B from a half-width, not Welch ν_eff, not U = k·u_c, and not trapezoidal Type B.

Production attestation GETs canonical URLs twice (public/cached view and origin), including Capability HTML, via npm run attest:production --write (published at /.well-known/calculatorx-production-attestation.json) and fails if the public Capability page advertises a different calculation_version. This is artifact consistency, not an independent immutable release log.

Assumptions

  • JCGM 100:2008 G.4.2: ν = ½ (u/σ(u))²
  • σ(u)=0 → ν is infinite (REST returns nu=null, infinite=true)
  • Not Type B u_B from a half-width, not Welch ν_eff, and not U = k·u_c

Limitations

  • GUM G.4.2 ν from stated u and σ(u) — not Type B u_B = a/√3
  • Not Welch–Satterthwaite ν_eff from several u_i, ν_i
  • Not expanded U = k·u_c
  • Does not take half-width a

Legacy published checks

Golden and boundary cases from the legacy Evidence JSON. CVP property, metamorphic, round-trip, O3, and interface statuses/checks are recorded in the Manifest — including SKIP when a suite has no vectors.
