Day 4

Run and test instead of trusting 'done'

Execute the approved plan, then open, click, refresh, and narrow the page yourself. Completion is reproducible evidence.

Suggested time
55-75 minutes
Completion evidence
Test record and failed items

Approve, then execute

Reopen the saved work brief and plan. Confirm that the goal, file scope, and forbidden changes are unchanged.

Execute approved plan
I approve the Day 3 change plan. Execute only that plan.

Goal:
Add the "My Public Making Plan" section with "Who I serve," "Release one," and "Next validation."

Boundary:
1. Change only files listed in the plan.
2. Preserve the existing name, problem, project, and button behavior.
3. Add no dependency, external service, or unplanned feature.
4. If the real project differs from the plan, stop and explain the difference.

When finished, list the actual files and locations changed and the exact viewing steps. Do not call the project complete yet.

Use three honest test states

PassedYou performed the check and observed the expected result.
FailedYou performed the check and reproduced a difference.
Not verifiedYou lack a run, permission, or visible evidence.
A common false claim

"Codex reported no error" proves only that Codex reported no error. It does not prove the page passed.

Run the golden path

Operate the page yourself before asking Codex to summarize the evidence.

Test each criterion
Test the project against these criteria and mark each Passed, Failed, or Not verified:

1. The page opens and refreshes using the original method.
2. "My Public Making Plan" appears after the project description and before the button, with all three items readable.
3. The original name, problem, project, and button label remain.
4. Clicking the button shows "My first release goal: invite one real user to try it."
5. At 390 pixels wide, there is no horizontal scrolling or clipped text.

Report only checks you actually performed. Include the action and observed result for each item.
Deliverable

Test record and failed items

Keep the action and observation for every result. A conclusion without a path cannot be repeated.
