forward-parity-smoke
Purpose
On the forward-only profile, a simple A query through Conduit must return NOERROR with at least one answer. This is a quick forward happy-path check; it does not require the answer to match a side-by-side direct query to the peer (that stronger check is a different case).
How it works
- The peer is configured with a local smoke name (
www.smoke.test→192.0.2.20) so the answer does not depend on the public Internet. - A client queries Conduit; Conduit forwards to the peer.
- The reply must be NOERROR with at least one answer record.
Outcomes
| Outcome | Meaning for operators |
|---|---|
| pass | Conduit returned NOERROR with an answer for the smoke A query. |
| fail | No successful answer through Conduit — investigate forwarding, peer readiness, or a peer change that broke the smoke name. |
| skip | This peer/profile combination is out of scope for the case. |
| characterized | Not used for this case today. If it appeared, it would mean a documented peer-specific quirk rather than a Conduit regression. |
