P4-REQ-21-8-008
Statement
Each interaction realization SHALL identify the required logging and exception-handling behavior.
Source
Part 4, Section 21.8: Interaction Pattern Realization Requirements.
Rationale
Interaction execution must expose sufficient operational information to make successful processing, warnings, degradation, failures, and recovery behavior reviewable.
Defining logging and exception-handling behavior ensures that important processing conditions are not silently hidden and supports later observation and evidence planning.
Applies To
This requirement applies to:
-
interaction realizations;
-
logging behavior;
-
exception handling;
-
processing outcomes; and
-
participating implementation artifacts.
Verification
Verification SHALL confirm that each interaction realization identifies its required logging and exception-handling behavior.
Verification activities should include review checks confirming that:
-
required processing events are logged;
-
failures are not silently suppressed;
-
exceptions follow approved handling patterns;
-
applicable warnings and recovery actions are recorded; and
-
behavior conforms to the Developer Handbook.
Traceability
This requirement connects Phase 0 interaction realizations to the logging and exception-handling conventions defined by Part 4.
