ProbeLabs23 findings · 123 requirementsThe fastest JSON parser for Go — formally verified with ReqProof (real library, master).
When the JSON input is truncated in the middle of a key string (e.g., '{"a' where the key string is not terminated), Get shall return a parse-related error and shall not panic.
Specification
The requirement exactly as authored — its complete prose text and, where present, the formal FRETish sentence it compiles to.
When the JSON input is truncated in the middle of a key string (e.g., '{"a' where the key string is not terminated), Get shall return a parse-related error and shall not panic.
the parser shall always satisfy !input_is_truncated_mid_key | returns_error_for_truncated_mid_key

Rationale & tags
Why this requirement exists, and how it is categorised.
Truncated mid-key input exercises stringEnd returning -1, which is a distinct truncation pattern from mid-structure and at-value-boundary cases.

Browse the catalogueGet on {"a (unclosed key string) drives stringEnd to return -1; the unguarded break leaves i past EOF and a subsequent data[i] dereference panics with index-out-of-range.

Variables
| Name | Type | Direction | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| input_is_truncated_mid_key | — | True when the JSON input is truncated in the middle of a key string where the key is not terminated by a closing quote. | |
| returns_error_for_truncated_mid_key | — | True when Get returns a parse-related error for input truncated mid-key, without panicking. |

MC/DC truth table· 3 rows
Each row assigns the formula's conditions (T/F) and shows the Result— the formula's value for that input row, not a test pass/fail. A row proves a condition when flipping only that condition flips the outcome. The test that covers each row is linked.
