Technique · Finding validation

Evidence-backed verification

Re-checks each finding against the code before it is shown: look for counterevidence, require proof, and refute or suppress what does not hold.

Sub-techniques

Counterevidence search V1042.001

Look for guards, callers or tests that show the claimed failure cannot happen.
Proof requirement V1042.002

Drop findings that cite no line, input or behaviour.
Run to confirm V1042.003

Write and run a test or script that demonstrates the failure.
Atomic findings V1042.004

Split findings that make more than one claim so each is verified separately.
