CONTENTSCALE NETWORK · ADMIN ONLY
Network Test Lab
Test one connected Network journey before relying on real role data. Canonical company, Marketplace, Publisher, Admin, matching, proposals, publication and verification are validated together. Business verification gates owner-led Marketplace actions, but a business may respond to a real private publication invitation without verification. Scout/referral remains parallel.
Safe test environment
The automatic suite is memory-only. Persistent E2E fixtures write only to the isolated
network_test_lab_fixtures table and use the real Readiness/Action engines. They never send email, call Gemini, rerun research, mutate credits or fetch external live pages. The real-placement inspector remains read-only.Automated state + logic regression suite
One cross-role journey + Marketplace collaboration + authoritative Publication Readiness + shared publisher contract + exhaustive 512-state matching/onboarding matrix. Contradictory states must fail here before they become a blue user action.
Persistent E2E fixture
Real database persistence + reloads + transactional transitions, isolated from production workflow rows and external side effects.
Create a clean fixture to start the Canonical Business → Marketplace → Publisher → Proposal → Publication → Verification journey. Scout/referral remains visible as a parallel, non-blocking track.
Inspect a real placement
Reads the exact persisted placement and calculates current authoritative readiness without changing it.
Manual production-path test map
Optional after the isolated persistent fixture passes. These links use the real Network flows and can create normal Network records, so use them only for the final launch rehearsal.
1 · Business
Create/claim → admin verifies → business dashboard → public verified profile.
2 · Publisher
Apply → admin approves → website check → publisher dashboard activates.
3 · Scout / referral
Create scout → share referral → publisher applies → activation/reward states.
4 · Opportunity + placement
Opportunity → hard interest → Prewrite → unique Publisher Edition.
5 · Publication readiness
3 internal + 3 external → repair → internal preview → ContentScore → Copy SEO HTML.
6 · Live verification
Submit exact URL → pre-check → manual verify / needs changes → credits idempotent.
Test-data boundary
Persistent E2E fixtures are isolated and can be reset/deleted here without touching production Network data. Only the optional production-path links above create normal Network records; use the Network Cockpit full reset only for those deliberate launch-rehearsal records.
