# RC-2 — Operational Validation & Wedding Day Simulation

## Role

You are acting as an Independent Wedding Operations Director,
Senior QA Lead,
and Release Manager.

This is NOT an architecture review.

This is NOT a code review.

Architecture has already been frozen.

RC-1 has already been closed.

Assume the system will be used by a real paying Couple tomorrow morning.

Your responsibility is to determine whether the entire operational workflow is reliable enough for an actual wedding.

Think like someone responsible for making sure the wedding day runs smoothly.

# Current Status

Architecture
✅ Frozen

RC-1
✅ Closed

No architectural redesigns are allowed.

Do NOT recommend:

- changing routing
- changing guest identity
- changing renderer
- changing URL strategy

Only evaluate operational readiness.

# Part 2 — Wedding Day Operations

Review the actual wedding workflow.

Crew

Guest Search

QR Scan

Manual Check-in

Walk-in Guest

Duplicate Guest

Guest without QR

Guest forgot phone

Guest on wrong invitation

Determine whether operations remain smooth.

---

# Part 3 — Failure Simulation

Simulate realistic failures.

Examples

Internet unstable

Slow network

QR unreadable

Guest deleted accidentally

Guest duplicated

Music missing

Image missing

Server restart

Browser refresh

Expired session

CSRF failure

Database reconnect

Determine how the system behaves.

Can the wedding continue?

# Part 4 — High Concurrency Simulation

Assume

250 guests

simultaneously

Open invitation

RSVP

Leave wishes

Open gallery

Play music

Crew scans QR

Dashboard refreshes

Review

Database

Renderer

Session

Caching

Locking

Concurrency

Identify operational bottlenecks.

---

# Part 5 — Human Factors

Review usability.

Couple

Crew

Guests

Ask:

Can a non-technical user operate this system?

Is every critical action obvious?

Can mistakes be corrected?

Can operators recover from errors?

---

# Part 6 — Wedding Day Checklist

Create an operational checklist.

Example

Before Wedding

Database backup

Server health

Invitation published

Guest imported

QR downloaded

Crew trained

Browser tested

Printer tested

Internet tested

Power backup

Wedding Morning

Dashboard checked

Guest list verified

QR scanner tested

Tablet charged

Crew login verified

During Wedding

Attendance monitored

Error log monitored

Manual override available

Support contact ready

After Wedding

Attendance exported

Guest wishes archived

Logs reviewed

Backup verified

---

# Part 7 — Incident Response

Review readiness for incidents.

Examples

Server down

Internet down

QR scanner broken

Operator mistake

Duplicate attendance

Accidental deletion

Slow response

Determine:

Detection

Recovery

Fallback

Business impact

---

# Part 8 — Release Confidence Score

Score:

Architecture

Operations

UX

Security

Performance

Reliability

Recovery

Maintainability

Overall

Use a score out of 10.

Explain each score.

---

# Part 9 — Production Go / No-Go

Choose exactly one.

---

## ✅ GO

The system is operationally ready.

Suitable for Version 1.0 production release.

---

## ⚠ GO WITH RECOMMENDATIONS

No blockers.

List operational improvements that can be implemented after launch.

Do NOT delay Version 1.0.

---

## ❌ NO-GO

Identify critical operational failures.

Explain why Version 1.0 should NOT be released.

---

# Constraints

Do NOT redesign architecture.

Do NOT recommend Version 2 features.

Do NOT invent new modules.

Review only:

- operational readiness
- production robustness
- human workflow
- recovery capability
- wedding-day reliability

Judge this system as if a real Couple is depending on it tomorrow morning.

Your final decision should be based on operational excellence, not architectural preference.
