O-lang resolver conformance and certification toolkit

O-Lang Resolver Test Suite

Language-agnostic conformance and certification tests for O-Lang resolvers.

O-Lang resolvers are executable contracts: small, deterministic units that perform actions described in O-Lang.
This test suite ensures that resolvers behave consistently, predictably, and safely across all programming languages that understand JSON.

---

TL;DR

• One contract
• One test suite
• Any programming language
• Deterministic, auditable resolvers

If your resolver passes these tests, it is O-Lang compliant.

What This Test Suite Does

The O-Lang Resolver Test Suite validates that a resolver:

• Declares required metadata (resolverName, version)
• Exposes a valid resolve(input) entry point
• Accepts structured JSON input
• Returns a strictly shaped response:
  • { "output": ... } or
  • { "error": ... }
• Fails explicitly and predictably
• Behaves deterministically (same input → same output)

The same tests apply whether your resolver is written in:

• Python
• JavaScript (Node.js)
• Go
• Rust
• Java
• Or any language capable of JSON I/O

---

Why This Exists

Most systems don’t fail because of syntax errors.
They fail because contracts are unclear.

Without resolver conformance testing:

• Every resolver invents its own response format
• Error handling becomes inconsistent
• Cross-language execution breaks silently
• Tooling cannot reason about behavior

O-Lang solves this by enforcing resolver contracts with a shared, language-agnostic test suite.
