Authentication declarations are checked before a single customer can be asked for a credential

Verification Boundary

This command-line validation suite exercises the acceptance journey for authentication declarations are checked before a single customer can be asked for a credential. Its registration records the executable definition; no run result is asserted.

What This Suite Proves

The suite contains executable checks, but no detailed scenario binding is verified in this pass.

What It Does Not Prove

Some steps report missing harness support. Those steps do not supply executable product proof. A mock run does not establish deployed persistence, provider effects or service authorization. The suite does not establish a complete feature sequence merely because it visits several screens.

Real Dependencies and Test Doubles

The suite invokes the installed adapter validation toolchain against scratch manifests. Its setup checks package availability and records any unsupported toolchain operation.

Must Not Be Doubled

The actual validation command and its problem assertions must execute against the scratch manifest.
