Operational test
Evidence appears in documentation, interface cues, or governance artifacts that reflect care retrospective.
Use this test to validate operational readiness.
Pair this test with the minimum evidence criteria to capture both qualitative and quantitative signals.
- Evidence artifact: Artifact documenting how Care Retrospective is expected, enforced, or governed.
- Behavior signal: Observed behavior showing Care Retrospective in practice during real use or drills.
- Metric signal: Metric tracked to monitor Care Retrospective performance over time.
A facilitated reflection held while the system is still in a warning band to examine how maintenance load, emotional labor, and unresolved incidents are accumulating. Care retrospectives combine telemetry with frontline testimony. They redistribute responsibilities before burnout or harm escalates, triggering new maintenance windows or policy fixes when the team cannot keep absorbing risk.
