Verification Methodology

Use this process when confirming an achievement condition or tier.

Test design

• Define the exact qualifying event before acting.
• Record the account, repository visibility, timestamps, and relevant repository settings.
• Change one material variable at a time.
• Avoid disposable accounts, fabricated collaboration, spam, or misleading activity.

Observation

After the event, check the profile achievement panel and record when the badge appears. A delay does not necessarily mean the event failed because profile processing may be asynchronous.

Reporting

Document the action, observed result, date, uncertainty, and whether the result agrees with official or community documentation. Never present a single test as proof of a universal rule.
