Check original-time boundaries

Check independently supplied outcomes at 299, 300 and 301 seconds, plus a withdrawn observation. These cases use producer metadata retained before this lesson.

For authors

Check independently supplied outcomes at 299, 300 and 301 seconds, plus a withdrawn observation. These cases use producer metadata retained before this lesson.

Read these instructions on any device. Watch or practise a chapter on a desktop or laptop, with a desktop or mobile application layout. Demonstrations use sample data and simulated scanners.

Check original-time boundaries

  1. Read the independent expected outcomes

    Read the independent expected outcomes

    The expected outcomes were supplied before running the rule. Check them against the requirement.

  2. Inspect the first observation

    Inspect the first observation

    Read the original observation, captured source state and expected result together.

  3. Check the metadata identity

    Check the metadata identity

    Calculate only the identity of the entered metadata. It does not prove authenticity or fill in any expected result.

  4. Retain the complete expected cases

    Retain the complete expected cases

    Save the complete set without copying computed results into expected outcomes.

  5. Read the retained case set

    Read the retained case set

    Reload the original saved cases before asking for verification.

  6. Verify the saved cases

    Verify the saved cases

    Run the deterministic definition against the independently entered outcomes.

  7. Read the passing proof

    Read the passing proof

    Read the retained proof. At exactly 300 seconds the original observation is eligible; at 301 seconds it is too old.

A passing check supports review. It does not approve the definition, admit an unqualified source or publish a Data configuration.
