Pressure Testing
How Ota records real-repository pressure evidence without turning a green matrix into a repository-wide claim.

What pressure evidence is
Pressure testing exercises a bounded Ota surface against an exact repository revision and retains the resulting evidence. It is product discovery and validation, not a certification programme.
The Core-owned registry is canonical. This page is generated from its public-safe projection and cannot add claims that are absent from the registry.
- A case records its repository type, exact source revision, Ota source, hosted matrix, exercised surfaces, proven facts, and not-proved boundaries.
- A green case never means the repository passed Ota, is fully governed, or is endorsed by its maintainers.
- Draft engineering notes remain review artifacts; only published notes are linked as public case studies.
Current evidence corpus
Each card links to retained hosted evidence. Read the listed limits with the same weight as the proven facts.
Published engineering notes
Published notes explain a reusable lesson from a case. Draft notes remain unlinked review artifacts until their evidence and publication posture are approved.
How to read a case
- Immutable pressure means a retained hosted matrix binds the listed source and controls. It does not broaden the result beyond the case's explicit facts.
- Pre-release design-partner pressure is a fork-owned review artifact. It remains distinct from upstream adoption and released-version proof.
- When a case exposes an Ota defect, the correction requires separate regression and pressure evidence. The original green matrix does not retroactively prove the repair.
