Adventure Storyteller — V1 Acceptance Tests

Status: v1.0 planning/release contract — updated after Phase 0B
Purpose: Define black-box acceptance tests for finalist evaluation during Phase 0B and for the eventual v1 release.

1. Test Philosophy

These tests describe observable behavior.

They should not assume a particular implementation such as:

AI-DnD,
Open Dungeon,
ai-adventure,
a specific database schema,
a specific frontend framework.

A candidate or final build passes by exhibiting the required behavior.

2. Test Modes

The suite has two uses.

Mode A — Phase 0B Candidate Evaluation

Use the tests to determine:

what already works,
what partially works,
what fails,
what would require redesign.

A candidate does not need to pass everything to remain viable.

Mode B — V1 Release Acceptance

The final production build must pass all tests marked:

REQUIRED FOR V1

Tests marked:

SHOULD

are strongly preferred but may be deferred if explicitly approved.

Tests marked:

FUTURE

validate architecture only and do not block v1.

3. Standard Test Environment

Recommended environment:

local Linux host,
local browser,
local Ollama,
one installed narrator model,
one installed embedding model if semantic retrieval is enabled,
outbound Internet blocked after setup,
fresh test data directory.

Record:

OS,
application commit/version,
Ollama version,
narrator model,
embedding model,
browser,
test date.

4. Standard Test Campaign

Create a campaign named:

Continuity Test

Profile:

genre: fantasy
tone: grounded adventure

Establish these facts:

Characters

Aldric
- protagonist
- carries a silver key
- trusts Mara

Mara
- tavern keeper
- knows Edrin
- does not initially know where the silver key was found

Edrin
- missing scholar

Locations

Crooked Lantern Tavern
Old Abbey

Canon Rules

1. Magic exists but resurrection is impossible.
2. The silver key was found in Edrin's desk.
3. Mara has never visited the Old Abbey.

Story Thread

Find Edrin.

This fixture is intentionally small but exposes:

possessions,
secrets,
relationships,
canon,
location continuity,
branch divergence,
long-term memory.

5. Standard Imported Knowledge Files

Create three local files.

`canon.md`

The Old Abbey lies five miles north of Westhaven.
The abbey crypt bears a symbol shaped like a broken circle.
Resurrection is impossible in this world.

Classification:

Canon

`reference.md`

Medieval taverns commonly used timber framing, stone hearths, benches,
shared tables, candles, and oil lamps.

Classification:

Reference

`inspiration.md`

A traveler entered a silent hall where rain tapped against dark shutters.
A single lantern illuminated the room.

Classification:

Inspiration

6. Result Codes

no cloud API key or Internet access is required,
inference/model traffic goes only to the approved LAN host,
storyteller UI/API remains loopback-bound,
prompts, state, retrieved knowledge, and embedding inputs do not go to any unapproved destination.

B. Basic Story Interaction

B01 — Natural Language Action

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Step

Enter:

I walk into the Crooked Lantern and look for Mara.

Pass

Narrator responds coherently using established setting/state.

B02 — Dialogue Input

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Step

Enter:

I say to Mara, "Have you heard anything about Edrin?"

Pass

Narrator treats quoted text as protagonist dialogue rather than narrating a contradictory user action.

B03 — Continue

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Step

Use Continue with no new protagonist action.

Pass

Narrator continues the scene without inventing a major voluntary protagonist decision that contradicts narrator rules.

B04 — Story Direction

Priority: SHOULD

Step

Provide out-of-character direction:

Keep this scene tense, but do not start a fight yet.

Pass

Direction affects narration without becoming an unintended in-world spoken statement.

C. Canon and State

C01 — Campaign Canon Is Preserved

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Step

Prompt a situation involving resurrection.

Pass

Narrator does not establish working resurrection magic as normal world truth.

C02 — Possession State

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Steps

Establish Aldric possesses the silver key.

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Preconditions

Mara does not know where the key was found.

Step

Ask Mara about the key without revealing its origin.

Pass

Narrator does not casually state that Mara knows it came from Edrin's desk unless some accepted event established that knowledge.

C04 — Manual State Correction

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Steps

Create or induce an incorrect fact.
Use state/canon correction to establish:

Mara never learned where the silver key was found.

Continue story.

Pass

correction is reflected in future context,
correction is auditable,
old transcript is not silently rewritten unless explicitly edited.

C05 — Canon Beats Reference

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Preconditions

Canonical world rule forbids resurrection.

Imported reference/inspiration

Contains language describing resurrection or revival.

Pass

Narrator follows campaign canon rather than imported lower-authority text.

C06 — Structured State Matches Accepted Narrative Consequence

Priority: REQUIRED FOR V1

Purpose

Catch semantically valid-looking state proposals that do not represent the accepted narration.

Steps

Use a fixture action with an unambiguous state consequence, such as moving an item, changing location, or applying a known condition.
Run the turn under a realistic application context, not an isolated extraction prompt.
Inspect accepted state events and resulting state.

Pass

accepted state reflects the narration's intended consequence,
event semantics are explicit and unambiguous,
malformed or contradictory proposals are rejected/repaired rather than silently accepted,
the implementation does not rely on one ambiguous numeric value being interpreted as either an absolute value or a relative delta.

- Ollama:
- model:
- browser:

Steps performed:

Expected result:

Evidence:
- log:
- screenshot:
- database query:
- network capture:
- test output:

Notes:

P. V1 Release Gate

The release candidate should not be called v1.0 until:

all REQUIRED FOR V1 tests pass,
any approved exceptions are documented in an ADR,
security offline test passes,
100-turn long-run test passes,
export/import recovery passes, including an undone active-head round trip,
Undo/Redo/Retry/checkpoint behavior passes,
explicit narrative-state event/coherence tests pass at realistic context length,
no first-use runtime tokenizer/font/asset download occurs,
branch/memory lineage isolation passes,
fantasy and science-fiction fixtures both pass.

Q. Current Recommendation

Use this document as:

Phase 0B:
comparison and gap analysis

Development:
regression target

Release:
black-box acceptance gate

The strongest implementation milestones should reference these test IDs directly.

Example:

Milestone: Checkpoint and rollback
Must pass:
D01-D14
E01-E04
L01-L03

This keeps implementation work tied to observable behavior rather than repository-specific architecture.
