Integrated Scenario Matrix

The scenario suite is the conformance target for repos that integrate user-engine. It keeps identity, authorization, tenant, application, profile, projection, audit, and event behavior testable without a UI.

Scenario	Proves
standalone_self_service	A verified actor can resolve me, write profile values, and read a projection.
denied_access	Authorization denials do not mutate state or emit outbox events.
tenant_admin	Tenant admins can manage in-tenant account, membership, and profile state.
platform_operator	Platform operators can operate across tenants without tenant-admin overreach.
cross_tenant_denial	Tenant actors cannot manage another tenant or platform root.
two_applications	Catalog ownership and projections prevent application data leakage.
sensitive_redaction	Sensitive values are redacted in runtime and claims-enrichment projections.
audit_event_replay	Mutations carry audit records, outbox events, and correlation ids.
identity_canon_context	Actor, user, account, authenticated subject, authorization principal, tenant, membership, grant-like facts, and evidence references stay distinguishable.

Fixture Actors

user_engine.testing.scenarios provides fixtures for human, service, agent, delegated agent, tenant admin, platform operator, break-glass, local issuer, invalid, expired, and missing-tenant identities.

Commands

All suites currently run through the standard-library test runner:

make test
make test-scenarios
make test-integration
make test-conformance

The separate targets are aliases today. They are intentionally present so CI can split unit, scenario, integration, and conformance execution later without changing consumer documentation.
