Trial

What happens when the candidate meets declared conditions?

Trial begins when a candidate leaves its assumptions and encounters declared conditions. Canon has already supplied the criteria and acceptable evidence. A bounded experiment identifies the exact revision and Environment, the Cases to exercise, and the budgets within which it may proceed. Its record preserves what happened, including failure, blockage, or refusal. An experiment can remain entirely local; testing does not require deployment or public release.

Exodus offers a quiet literary echo in its account of departure. Here, departure means allowing experience to answer a proposal. Consider field notes edited in two copies while disconnected: a controlled concurrent-edit Case may reveal that reconciliation overwrites an observation. That loss belongs in the result even if every other check passes. The declared conditions make the encounter interpretable; they do not promise a favorable answer.

The practical evaluation contract remains with Drift's Trials, while Creation verification keeps its place in the software-development method. Drift evaluates retained evidence; the admitted execution owner carries out effects within the trial's declared boundary.

What makes the observed consequence acceptable, and whose criteria govern the answer? Continue to Canon to examine the measure that preceded the encounter.
