Specification

The requirement exactly as authored — its complete prose text and, where present, the formal FRETish sentence it compiles to.

Description

When ParseString receives a malformed encoded string literal, the parser shall return the documented malformed-value error.

FRETish formula
the parser shall always satisfy raw_string_literal_is_well_formed | returns_parsestring_error

Rationale & tags

Why this requirement exists, and how it is categorised.

Malformed-string failure is externally visible and should be specified independently from valid ParseString decoding behavior.

Obligations

What this requirement must witness to be considered satisfied — the required evidence, and the tests that discharge each one.

No obligations recorded for this requirement

Proof obligations are recorded once evidence is generated. None have been captured here yet — this is expected, not a gap in the requirement itself. A required class of evidence the requirement must witness — the bridge between the requirement existing and it being proven.

Formula evidence

The formal formula behind this requirement, the variables it is written over, and the tests that exercise it (each term is explained inline).

FRETish formula

the parser shall always satisfy raw_string_literal_is_well_formed | returns_parsestring_error

Variables

NameTypeDirectionDescription
raw_string_literal_is_well_formedTrue when ParseString receives a well-formed raw JSON string literal body.
returns_parsestring_errorTrue when ParseString returns the documented malformed-value error for a malformed encoded string literal.
