# Custom object API journey 0256

## Verification Boundary

This API suite checks custom record journeys within the fixture-selected development environment. The registered file and pinned revision define its boundary.

## What This Suite Proves

The bindings identify the detailed or feature scenarios whose outcomes have assertions in this suite. Original case references remain attached to the detailed scenarios so a reviewer can inspect the exact assertion. Assertions are evidence of implemented checks; no execution result is claimed.

## What It Does Not Prove

The register does not establish a current passing run or full specification conformance. Behavior outside the suite’s fixtures and assertions remains unverified.

## Real Dependencies and Test Doubles

The fixture uses PostgreSQL and the imported persistence or API code. The fixture imports identify the setup seams; this register makes no broader claim that dependencies are undoubled.

## Must Not Be Doubled

The operation under examination and its asserted stored outcomes must remain real within the declared harness. A fixture cannot replace the write, refusal or transactional effect that the bound scenario checks.
