TEST ROOMJOINING 001 UI Case

TEST-ROOMJOINING-001 - AC-01: Room joining

Current amendment persistence: 19-record QBrain readback confirms the current cap10 requirement amendment, stable IDs/native mappings and 28 changed criteria still unsatisfied. Original design provenance, case synchronization receipts, v2.7 before copies and execution history remain retained; current case/export reconciliation and exact-source execution are separate obligations. CAP15-LEGACY retains its historical ID with current10-player text. Documentation does not satisfy criteria or establish a passing game.

Current rules v2.8 amendment (31 October 2026): 2 through 10 players, 25 observers unchanged. Completion contract. Original design hashes and execution receipts below remain historical; current notes/export and execution require separate readback.

Linked specification for the matching authoritative QBrain TEST record. Persistence is reported by receipt.json; this documentation run executed no application tests.

Preconditions/roles	Alice has a waiting room; Bob has an independent browser profile and no room membership.
Test data	Generated active room code, Alice owl icon, Bob fox icon; repeat for capacities 2, 8 and 10.
Synchronization	Await the explicit observable conditions and source-defined deadlines below; no fixed sleeps. Harness timeouts do not create a product response-time SLA.
Cleanup	Close case-owned contexts and reset only isolated fixture accounts, rooms or content, including after failure. Preserve shared catalog and real profile data.
Automation readiness	Ready for automation once isolated UI fixture seeding and observations are available; documentation only.
Basis	Specified by cited designs/QBrain; new gap behavior is specified by UI-DEC-01..08. Synthetic fixture identities/data are test configurations.
Execution	Not run here. Existing historical status/evidence remains unchanged; new obligations remain pending/unsatisfied.

Ordered actions and observable results

Step	Action / condition	Observable expected result
1	As Bob enter the generated room code and choose player join.	Bob enters Alice's room with the fox icon.
2	Observe Alice's room without manually refreshing.	The same room roster includes Alice and Bob, each once, with their selected icons.

Scenario

Feature: AC-01: Room joining
  Scenario: TEST-ROOMJOINING-001 design verification
    Given Alice has a waiting room; Bob has an independent browser profile and no room membership.
    And the fixture data is Generated active room code, Alice owl icon, Bob fox icon; repeat for capacities 2, 8 and 10.
    When As Bob enter the generated room code and choose player join.
    Then Bob enters Alice's room with the fox icon.
    When Observe Alice's room without manually refreshing.
    Then The same room roster includes Alice and Bob, each once, with their selected icons.

Boundaries

Run separate-device browser contexts; extend the fixture to every count 2 through 10 under TEST-MULTIPLAYERINTEGRATION-134 and TEST-ROOMSYNC-139. The 9-game matrix requires 54 player participations and 432 accepted round solves. This case alone does not establish the matrix or a latency bound. Larger historical matches retain their separate compatibility coverage.

Criterion references identify intended verification. Non-UI transaction, distribution, release/deployment and native OS guarantees retain separate technical/operational tests; this document is not a claim that a compound criterion passed.
