║ GRASP COMPLIANCE TEST TOOL PROPOSAL ║
║ Visual Summary ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
REQUIREMENT TO TEST
═══════════════════
"MUST serve a NIP-01 compliant nostr relay at / that accepts git repository
announcements and their corresponding repo state announcements."
THE BIG QUESTION
════════════════
Should we comprehensively test NIP-01, or just smoke test it?
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH │ OUR APPROACH (RECOMMENDED) │
├─────────────────────────────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────┤
│ • 50+ NIP-01 tests │ • 6 NIP-01 smoke tests │
│ • 12 GRASP tests │ • 12 GRASP tests │
│ • Total: 62+ tests │ • Total: 18 tests │
│ • Time: 3-4 weeks │ • Time: 1 week │
│ • Mostly redundant with rust-nostr │ • Focused on GRASP logic │
│ • High maintenance burden │ • Low maintenance burden │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────────┘
RECOMMENDATION: Our approach (18 tests, 1 week)
REASON: rust-nostr already has 1000+ tests for NIP-01

│ 5. reject_invalid_event → Rejects bad signatures │
│ 6. reject_invalid_event_id → Rejects wrong IDs │

BENEFITS
════════
✅ Focused Testing
• 18 tests vs. 62+ redundant tests
• Test GRASP logic, not generic Nostr
• Fast execution (seconds, not minutes)
✅ Reusable Tool
• Any GRASP implementation can use it
• Works with Go, Rust, Python, JavaScript
• Publish as standalone crate
✅ Clear Failures
• Cite exact spec requirements
• Show expected vs. actual
• Actionable error messages
✅ Maintainable
• Tests mirror spec structure
• Easy to add GRASP-02, GRASP-05
• Update when spec updates
✅ Proof of Concept
• Validates architecture
• Shows rust-nostr integration works
• Demonstrates inline authorization
DECISIONS NEEDED
════════════════
1. SCOPE
☐ Agree with smoke tests approach?
☐ 18 tests sufficient for first requirement?
2. APPROACH
☐ A: Test-first (write tests, then implement)
☐ B: Parallel (tests and implementation together)
☐ C: Implementation-first (code first, tests later)
RECOMMENDED: A (test-first)
3. STRUCTURE
☐ Separate crate from day one?
☐ Start integrated, extract later?
RECOMMENDED: Separate from day one
4. FIXTURES
☐ Deterministic test keys?
☐ Random test keys?
☐ Configurable (both)?
RECOMMENDED: Deterministic (reproducible)
NEXT STEPS
══════════
1. ✅ Review this proposal
2. ✅ Answer decision questions
3. ✅ Create test tool skeleton
4. ✅ Implement smoke tests
5. ✅ Implement GRASP tests
6. ✅ Create minimal ngit-grasp
7. ✅ Iterate until green
8. ✅ Document and polish
FILES CREATED
═════════════
• COMPLIANCE_TEST_PROPOSAL.md → Detailed proposal with code
• REPORT_COMPLIANCE_TESTING.md → Executive summary
• TEST_BREAKDOWN.md → Test-by-test breakdown
• TEST_VISUAL_SUMMARY.txt → This file
READY TO PROCEED?
═════════════════
Please review and advise on:
1. Scope (smoke tests vs. comprehensive)
2. Approach (test-first, parallel, or implementation-first)
3. Any changes to the 18 proposed tests
4. Priority of specific tests
Once confirmed, implementation begins immediately.
