-
Triage batch progress by reconciling item outcomes
Find whether a misleading batch progress view has a wrong denominator, stale projection, or item state mismatch before changing reporting code.
-
Prioritize batch progress work by downstream consequence
Rank misleading batch progress reports by false completion risk, blocked decisions, affected batch shapes, and the quality of evidence available for a focused fix.
-
Investigate batch progress projections with a fixed item ledger
Build a reproducible batch progress brief that separates item selection, terminal outcome aggregation, projection writes, and the screen refresh path.
-
Verify batch progress across filtered and active items
Check batch progress with complete, mixed, excluded, and still-active fixtures, confirming the denominator, terminal counts, timestamps, and visible status agree.
-
Prevent stale batch progress with an outcome contract
Record durable lessons for batch progress: denominator ownership, item outcome vocabulary, projection freshness, and the batch shapes that must be replayed after future changes.
-
Triage batch cancellation by checkpoint and side effect
Locate why a batch cancellation remains active by comparing the request, worker checkpoint, in-flight call, durable state, and effects after acknowledgement.
-
Prioritize batch cancellation lag by residual side-effect risk
Decide how urgently to address slow batch cancellation by ranking work that continues after acknowledgement, durable effects, and the reliability of recovery evidence.
-
Investigate batch cancellation at known worker boundaries
Reproduce cancellation before a step, at a checkpoint, and inside a blocked call to distinguish cooperative stopping from delayed status or unavoidable in-flight work.
-
Verify batch cancellation without new effects after acknowledgement
Exercise queued, checkpointed, and in-flight batch work to confirm cancellation states, side-effect boundaries, and reconciliation after a worker finishes its safe step.
-
Define a cooperative cancellation contract for batches
Capture lessons about safe checkpoints, acknowledgement wording, in-flight calls, and the evidence needed to detect batch work that continues after cancellation.
-
Triage batch resume by locating the durable checkpoint
Determine whether a resumed batch replays, skips, or loses items by comparing ordering, checkpoint writes, item commits, and the interruption boundary.
-
Prioritize batch resume defects by duplicate and omission risk
Rank resume checkpoint work by the consequences of replayed side effects, skipped records, recovery cost, and confidence in the affected input ordering.
-
Investigate batch resume with an ordered interruption fixture
Build a resume brief that compares checkpoint position, item commit order, and restart selection across interruptions before and after a durable item outcome.
-
Verify batch resume replays only the safe checkpoint boundary
Check resume after pre-commit and post-commit interruptions, including an input revision change, and reconcile every item outcome and durable effect.
-
Document batch checkpoint meaning and replay boundaries
Preserve lessons about last-committed versus next-item cursors, immutable input snapshots, idempotent effects, and the resume fixtures future changes must keep passing.
-
Triage batch completion by reconciling mixed item states
Find whether a batch hides failures or skips by comparing item outcomes, aggregation rules, visible status, and the gate that consumes batch completion.
-
Prioritize partial batch completion by decision risk
Rank batch completion defects by false-success exposure, skipped work, downstream actions already enabled, and the ability to reconcile item outcomes safely.
-
Investigate partial completion with an explicit outcome matrix
Reproduce batch aggregation using known success, failure, skip, cancellation, and missing-result states, then trace how the summary reaches downstream eligibility.
-
Verify batch status for all-success and mixed outcomes
Check all-success, failed, skipped, canceled, and incomplete batch fixtures to confirm status wording, item counts, review state, and downstream gating agree.
-
Keep a durable partial-completion outcome taxonomy
Document how batches treat success, failure, skip, cancellation, and missing results, with fixtures and recurrence checks for aggregation and downstream gating changes.
-
Triage batch window overruns with a cutoff timeline
Locate why batch work crosses its operating window by comparing due cutoff, item service time, dependency waits, checkpoint progress, and the next scheduled boundary.
-
Prioritize batch window overruns by collision and recovery risk
Rank overrun work by missed operating commitments, overlap with the next occurrence, stale outputs, and the safety of recovering leftover items.
-
Investigate batch window overruns by tracing service and cutoff
Build a reproducible overrun brief that compares item service, dependency wait, cutoff handling, checkpoint writes, and the next scheduled occurrence.
-
Verify batch behavior before and after its operating window
Check batches that finish before cutoff, cross cutoff, and meet the next due boundary, confirming explicit partial, resume, and overlap states.
-
Document the batch window and leftover-work contract
Preserve lessons about cutoff timing, checkpointed leftovers, service-rate evidence, and the schedule changes that require repeating batch window tests.
