Testing Scenarios

Anchor Scenarios

The exact paths your testing partners hit. Each scenario maps to a concrete request shape, expected response, conformance checkpoints, and the readiness metric Operon emits.

Scenario 1

$member-match happy path

Trigger
New plan onboards member previously covered by prior plan
Request
POST $member-match with Patient + Coverage seed
Expected response
Member identity bundle confirming match
Conformance checkpoints
  • $member-match operation profile
  • Identity match precision
Readiness metric emitted
$member-match precision/recall

Scenario 2

$member-match ambiguous-match

Trigger
Multiple potential matches in prior plan
Request
POST $member-match with insufficient demographics
Expected response
OperationOutcome with multiple-match diagnosis or graceful no-match
Conformance checkpoints
  • Ambiguity handling
  • No PII leakage on no-match
Readiness metric emitted
$member-match precision/recall

Scenario 3

Historical bundle handoff

Trigger
After successful match, new plan requests history
Request
GET historical bundle for matched member
Expected response
Bundle of CARIN BB + US Core resources
Conformance checkpoints
  • Profile validity
  • Cross-system provenance
Readiness metric emitted
End-to-end exchange latency

Scenario 4

Reconciliation/idempotency replay

Trigger
New plan replays request after partial failure
Request
Repeat historical bundle request with original correlation id
Expected response
Identical bundle (idempotent) or conformant continuation
Conformance checkpoints
  • Idempotency
  • Resource ID stability
Readiness metric emitted
End-to-end exchange latency
Sample Data

Sample Bundles

What's Provisioned
