integritycheck

This repo provides some interfaces to build integrity checks for your application., _(*1)

Integrity checks are somewhere between integration tests (that should ensure the correct functionality of your app) and monitoring (that should ensure the availability of your app)., _(*2)

They consist of an investigation that can detect some invalid state (usually of dsata), and a resolution that can resolve the situation. There are three types of resolution:, _(*3)

• Automatic: this solves the detected problem by running queries, code or anything else.
• Manual: maybe the resolution is dangerous or impossible to deduce, this is a description of how to resolve the detected situation.
• NotImplemented: this allows checks to be built without knowing the resolutions but still keeping track of which integrity checks still need more work.

An example of an integrity check could be:, _(*4)

• Investigation: query a datastore for articles with a "published" state where "publishUntil" is in the past

Examples of resolutions could be:, _(*5)

• AutomaticResolution: unpublish the articles in question
• ManualResolution: call Anton from the news division on 1234 and ask which articles need to be de-published

Obviously you would also want to check your de-publication cronjobs in such a case., _(*6)
