Validation

The validation script (scripts/validate.sh) runs these checks for the json-comp test profile. All must pass for a framework to be considered valid for this benchmark.

Checks

Content-Encoding is set when Accept-Encoding is sent

GET /json/50?m=1
Accept-Encoding: gzip, br

The response must include Content-Encoding: gzip or Content-Encoding: br. Any other value (including absent) is a failure.

Response body is correct for multiple (count, m) pairs

Three requests are sent with different counts and multipliers:

For each response, after decompressing, the validator checks:

1. count field equals the route count
2. Every item in items has a total field
3. total == price * quantity * m for every item (integer, exact)

Any missing field or incorrect arithmetic is a failure. This confirms the server honors the m parameter and applies it per item.

No Content-Encoding when Accept-Encoding is absent

GET /json/50?m=1

Without Accept-Encoding, the response must not include a Content-Encoding header. Compression is driven per request by the client — servers that unconditionally compress fail this check.
