Test Implementation Report — Cycle 1

Step: Greenfield 10 — Implement Tests Date: 2026-05-17 Status: COMPLETE

Summary

All 41 blackbox/e2e test tasks under epic AZ-262 (E-BBT) have been implemented across batches 60..89 of cycle 1 (test-implementation batches; earlier batches covered product implementation, refactor, and replay-tooling work). The harness ships with a Tier-1 docker runner plus a Tier-2 Jetson wrapper, fixture builders, the CSV reporter + evidence bundler + NFR recorder, and per-category test trees (positive/, negative/, performance/, resilience/, security/, resource_limit/).

Tasks Completed (AZ-262 — Blackbox Tests Epic)

Test infrastructure + fixture builders

• AZ-406 — test infrastructure bootstrap
• AZ-407 — static fixture builders (SITL replay, calibration, mavproxy passkey)
• AZ-408 — synthetic injector fixture builders (outlier, spoof, multi-segment, cold-boot, age-injector)
• AZ-444 — Tier-2 Jetson harness wrapper (./e2e/jetson/run-tier2.sh)
• AZ-445 — CSV reporter + evidence bundler + NFR recorder + PARTIAL propagation + traceability-status.json + regression-baseline.json
• AZ-446 — CSV reporter refinements (band annotations + ci95 columns
  • report.csv per-metric flat emission)

Positive functional tests (FT-P-01..FT-P-19)

AZ-409 .. AZ-423 (15 task IDs covering 19 scenarios)

Negative functional tests (FT-N-01..FT-N-06)

AZ-424 .. AZ-427 (4 task IDs covering 6 scenarios)

Performance NFTs (NFT-PERF-01..NFT-PERF-04)

AZ-428, AZ-429, AZ-430, AZ-431

Resilience NFTs (NFT-RES-01..NFT-RES-04)

AZ-432, AZ-433, AZ-434, AZ-435

Security NFTs (NFT-SEC-01..NFT-SEC-05)

AZ-436, AZ-437, AZ-438, AZ-439 (NFT-SEC-04 covers both OpenCV CVE and ASan-fuzz under a single ticket)

Resource-limit NFTs (NFT-LIM-01..NFT-LIM-05)

AZ-440, AZ-441, AZ-442 (combined NFT-LIM-03 + NFT-LIM-05), AZ-443

Local Test Results (workstation, Tier-1 docker harness)

• e2e/_unit_tests/: 1229 passed (full helper + scenario logic).
• Scenario collection under e2e/tests/: every test collects cleanly under runner/pytest.ini. Tier-2-only scenarios + scenarios that depend on AZ-595 SITL replay fixtures skip cleanly with explicit prerequisite reasons.

Skip taxonomy in the Tier-1 docker harness:

Skip cause	Scope
tier2_only	NFT-LIM-01, NFT-LIM-04, NFT-PERF-01 (and any scenario marked Jetson-only)
sitl_replay_ready	All scenarios that consume an AZ-595 replay fixture (large)
vins_mono research-build guard	Scenarios re-parametrized across the production matrix per D-C1-1-SUB-A
chamber_only	Optional chamber-rig scenarios (gated by --enable-chamber)

Production Dependencies Surfaced to Downstream Tickets

These are blockers for the full Tier-1 + Tier-2 green run; the harness scenarios already skip cleanly with explicit reasons:

• AZ-595 — SITL replay builder: per-second VmRSS + tegrastats + per-minute du -sh snapshots + per-iteration MC fixtures + per-frame latency fixtures. Multiple scenarios block on this fixture set.
• AZ-444 — Tier-2 Jetson runner: required for tier2_only scenarios (NFT-LIM-01, NFT-LIM-04, NFT-PERF-01).
• D-CROSS-CVE-1 (deferred) — opencv-python pin awaiting gtsam numpy>=2 wheels; non-blocking for current scenarios but tracked in _docs/_process_leftovers/.

Carried-over Hygiene PBI Candidates

These were surfaced repeatedly across cumulative reviews (batches 85–87 and again in batches 88, 89) and remain unresolved:

• write_csv_evidence boilerplate duplication across evaluator helpers (4 new instances added in batch 88; existing instances in ~6 prior helpers).
• _resolve_fixture_path boilerplate duplication across scenario files (4 new instances added in batch 88).

These do not block test-suite execution. A focused refactor PBI is recommended after the Run Tests gate completes — recording it here so the retrospective step can pick it up.

Final-Test-Run Handoff (per implement skill Step 16)

The next greenfield step is Step 11 Run Tests, which is the hard product gate that exercises the implemented system through public runtime boundaries. Per the implement skill Step 16: "If the next flow step is Run Tests, record a handoff in the final implementation report and let .cursor/skills/test-run/SKILL.md own the full-suite gate to avoid duplicate full runs."

→ The full-suite gate is handed off to .cursor/skills/test-run/SKILL.md. The implement skill closes Step 10 without re-running the full suite a second time.
