How to run it

Every way Dynoxide (wasm) is distributed, each linking to the project's own documentation for it. These are the project's claims, not the suite's measurements.

Per-region divergence

The headline is 2 regions, measured against 2 of 33 observed regions, and scored in ap-east-2. Real DynamoDB doesn't behave identically in every region, so a target can match some regions more closely than others. Each figure below is divergence in those regions, best first. eu-west-2 is marked as the historical baseline, and a region that couldn't be resolved this sweep is flagged rather than counted as a disagreement.

Fully supports

Operation areas this target implements completely - every test passes, nothing skipped. Areas it only partly gets wrong are in “Where it falls short” below; the ones it only partly attempts are in “What it doesn’t attempt”.

Divergence and coverage over time

Both are plotted because neither reads correctly alone. Divergence falls when a target stops attempting an operation it used to get wrong, so a fall in the first plot is only an improvement if the second one holds.

Divergence

Dynoxide (wasm) divergence, 2026-07-24 to 2026-08-18 0% 1% 2% divergence - lower is better 24 Jul 12 Aug 13 Aug 15 Aug 17 Aug 18 Aug 0.9%
Diverging on 0.9% of the suite as of 18 Aug. Lower is better, so a falling line is a target getting closer to real DynamoDB.

Coverage

Dynoxide (wasm) coverage, 2026-07-24 to 2026-08-18 75% 88% 100% coverage - higher is better 24 Jul 12 Aug 13 Aug 15 Aug 17 Aug 18 Aug 83.4%
Implementing 83.4% of the suite as of 18 Aug, as little as 78.7% on 24 Jul. Higher is better. This is the share of the suite's tests a target implements at all. A fail becoming a skip leaves both numerators over the same fixed denominator, so a fall here is matched point for point by a fall in divergence: withdrawal costs exactly as much coverage as it gains divergence.

By operation

Every operation this target implements, with how much of it diverges and how much of it it covers, on the same two axes as the figures above. The counts are fails over the operation's whole size. full, partial, failing, unsupported. The matrix compares operations across targets.

What it doesn't attempt

Operations Dynoxide (wasm) declines rather than gets wrong, so none of this counts towards its divergence. It is what the gap in its 83.4% coverage is made of. Each test here skipped itself because the target's own feature probe said the operation isn't implemented, which is often a deliberate choice rather than a defect.

Run Gradecurrent criteria Divergence Movement

Suite on

The board now measures the most recent release tag rather than main. Merging a test still runs it against real AWS, which is what validates it, but the published figures no longer move until a release moves them, so a dated changelog entry always sits behind a change in the denominator. Expect the figures to shift on this release: the board is switching from measuring main to measuring a tag, and those are different trees today.

Every board now says what produced it. results/summary.json carries a suite block naming the ref measured, its commit, the suite version at that ref, the region it ran against and when. It is additive, so schemaVersion stays at 1. The same block reaches /data/latest.json, /data/index.json and /data/runs.json, where each historical run carries its own copy, so a denominator that moved between two runs can be attributed to the release that moved it. Branch on kind: only tag is a released board.

A board is graded against the suite manifest and split registry as they stood at the ref it measured. Region health is the exception and is read live, so a region dropped since the tag still counts against today's cohorts. That is the one input allowed to move under a board without a new measurement, and the board carries a health date beside its measurement date to say so.

Releases are cut by one workflow dispatch: it bumps the version, dates this section, installs against the bumped tree, tags, and opens a draft release, then starts the measurement. The draft publishes itself when the board carrying that version lands, which takes about three hours.

eu-west-2 has crossed to the validation framework's generic constraint message for BatchGetItem with an empty RequestItems map, so the split row recording that behaviour is re-characterised against a 34-region capture taken on 2026-08-17. Eleven of the thirty-three regions that answer now return the generic message; twenty-two still return the bespoke required-parameter sentence, and me-central-1 joins the row.

The matching validation-ordering row is retired. Both wordings refuse an empty RequestItems before the map is read, which is all that tier asserts, so the assertion now matches the parameter name case-insensitively and spans both. The BatchWriteItem case beside it, which no region has moved yet, is written the same way.

A probe absent from the baseline is no longer reported as drift. Adding a probe to the capture script leaves every older baseline without it, and a scheduled red then named the new probe as the thing that had moved.

The weekly cross-region capture now includes eu-west-2, so the drift lens reads its baseline and the candidate regions from one capture taken at one moment rather than comparing today's candidates against an older baseline file. A scheduled red also keeps the eu-west-2 capture its drift verdict was read from, which was previously discarded with the runner.

ExtendDB's SQLite backend joins the run, built from the same release as the PostgreSQL one and held to the same TLS, SigV4 and IAM posture, so the storage engine is the only thing that differs between them.

A project's other builds now sit behind a disclosure on its row. Every build is measured in full and has a row of its own with its own figures; the disclosure starts closed only when every build under it reads the same grade, divergence and coverage as the row above, and only when each of them was measured in that run: a carried row on either side opens it, and so does a run the suite declined to score. It is read from each run, so a build can start closed on one and open on the next. The README table has no disclosure to offer, so it lists every build outright.

Every target in the data endpoints gains two fields. collapsedIntoProject is true when the board starts that build's row closed. standsForProject says which row the board treats as a project's own, which isVariant cannot answer: on a run where a project's reference build recorded nothing, a build is promoted to stand for it and every row of that project reads isVariant: true. Both are additive, so schemaVersion is unchanged, and /data/index.json gains a projects block documenting them.

/data/index.json also gains a schema block saying what the version number entitles a consumer to: a field you already read will not change type or meaning while schemaVersion stays put, and new fields can appear at any version. The grading criteria are named there as a separate axis, since a change to the bands changes what a letter means without the schema moving.

The coverage description said a partial run was carried forward on its last clean measurement. It is not: the row stays in the run, publishes null for both figures and reads carried: false, because the target did report. Carrying forward is what happens to the baseline's unobserved lanes. Corrected, along with Dynoxide's build label, which now names its storage (native SQLite) like every other build in the registry rather than its compile target.

Suite on

Read this first if you consume the JSON. The data endpoints go from schema 2 to schema 4 in one step. Schema 3 was never published on its own, so everything on 2 crosses both steps at once. Schema 3 breaks in four ways:

  • movement.state values changed from up/down to improved/regressed. This is the one that fails silently: the old names still parse, and now mean the opposite direction.
  • movement.delta keeps its shape but is computed from divergence rather than correctness, so the sign of a delta means the opposite of what it did.
  • A tier no longer carries pct and value. It carries divergence, coverage and correctness, each with a pct and a value of its own.
  • The whole-suite correctness percentage is correctness, not total. total also names the raw test count inside counts, so the same word meant a count in one place and a percentage in another.

Schema 4 is additive on top: each target carries its grade and the full criteria in metrics.grade, every envelope gains baseline.observation (how much of the suite the live-AWS row stands on, which passes reported, and what is carried), latest.json and runs.json gain divergence, project, configuration and isVariant, results/summary.json gains regionFailures, and /data/index.json lists the split registry.

A score is two figures, never one

Divergence is the share of the whole suite a target answers differently from real DynamoDB. Coverage is the share it implements at all. They are reported apart and never summed, because a declined operation is discoverable in minutes and a wrong one in production. No target was re-run for the change and no pass, fail or skip moved: what changed is how the same counts are expressed.

Everything else that was a percentage followed the headline down - tier figures, the per-region drilldown, the per-operation table, and the colour bands, which inverted with them. A target's history is two plots rather than one, because divergence falls when a target stops attempting something it used to get wrong, so a divergence line alone can render a withdrawal as an improvement.

Every target wears a letter

Divergence sets it - A under 5%, B under 15%, C under 25%, D under 35%, F beyond

  • and coverage can only lower it, never raise it: a third of whatever a target leaves unimplemented is added to its divergence before the bands are read. A+ is exactly zero divergence at full coverage. A row says when coverage is holding its letter down, so a capped row is not mistaken for one with room above it. Real DynamoDB reads baseline rather than a letter, because grading the yardstick against itself would seat it in a band an engine had to earn its way into.

These are grading criteria version 1, dated in the methodology, which carries the derivation. Where a threshold sits is a hand-picked input to a published letter, and moving one regrades targets whose results never changed, so any change to a band, the coverage weight or the A+ gate bumps the version.

The suite grows from 998 tests to 1054

Vector search (#125). 42 tests over the deterministic surface DynamoDB shipped in August 2026: the index lifecycle on both creation paths, request validation on each plane, rejection wording, write-path validation, search on a fixture where the nearest neighbour is unambiguous, the two new capacity shapes, and PartiQL's inability to reach a vector index. Every pinned value was characterised against real DynamoDB in eu-west-2 before it was asserted. Two findings worth naming: searching during a backfill is an error, which settles which side of a contradiction in AWS's own documentation is right - three developer-guide pages say the call fails, the tutorial page says results can be incomplete - and an overwrite leaving the stored vector unchanged reports no vector write capacity at all, because index replication is delta-based. Both sides are captured in captures/2026-08-12-vector-backfill-docs.json. No emulator implements the family yet, so every target skips it and every coverage figure drops with this release while divergence is untouched. Sending the new operations needs @aws-sdk/client-dynamodb 3.1103.0 or later.

Index write costs (#124). 14 tests. The suite's only per-index capacity assertion was on a Query, so the write side - the half you get billed extra for - went unmeasured. A sub-1KB write costs one unit for the table and one for each index it lands in, and LSI units fold into the total exactly as GSI units do. Moving an item to a new GSI key costs two on that index, a delete and an insert; touching a projected attribute costs one; touching a non-projected attribute costs nothing, and the response carries no arm for that index rather than a zero. An overwrite that leaves the item unchanged reports no index cost whatsoever.

The index exclusions create no indexed table (#116). !gsi and !lsi used to select the right tests and then build the tables anyway, so an engine with no secondary-index support died in setup whatever it had asked for. Shared tables are created on demand from what the running file declared, the composite table split into indexed and plain variants, and three guards keep the declarations and the tags honest.

Corrections

  • The suite counts its own tests. "The whole suite" had meant whichever target ran the most tests, so one of the measured things was setting the denominator every figure divided by. registry/suite-manifest.json lists every test by file and full name, generated from the suite rather than inferred from a run, and CI fails if it drifts. Publishing now refuses a row whose test population disagrees with it, which catches a results file carried across a rename that keeps its old total while naming tests that no longer exist.
  • Every figure on a row comes from one region. A headline came from the target's best-matching region while its tier split and raw counts stayed on the baseline region's basis. Correctness never had to reconcile, because each tier had its own denominator; divergence is additive, so it does.
  • The per-region overlay is matched to the run it describes, rather than keyed on the date real AWS was last swept, which had put a later run's figures on an earlier run's page.
  • A methodology claim was wrong. The page said that measuring divergence over the whole suite stops an engine implementing a sliver from posting a perfect score. It doesn't: zero fails is 0.0% divergence at any coverage. What does hold is the identity the page now states - a test going from failing to skipped leaves both numerators together over the same denominator, so withdrawal costs exactly as much coverage as it gains divergence, and is disclosed rather than silent.
  • The baseline row is measured rather than pinned once real AWS has been observed across the whole suite. It runs in three passes and only the main one reached the published artefact, so the row had claimed a full suite on a run that recorded less. The passes are merged before scoring, each with its own capture date, and the row stays pinned and says so until all three report.
  • The Atom feed carries no letter on any run measured before criteria version 1 took effect. It had been rewriting each entry's summary with a grade the run never had, while leaving <updated> alone so no subscriber re-notified.
  • Badges publish the grade under a parity label, having still been publishing the correctness percentage the board retired under a conformance label. The endpoint URL is unchanged; a badge whose target has no results this run reads no data rather than disappearing, because the URL sits in other people's READMEs.
  • Two more regional splits are admitted, both BatchGetItem with an empty RequestItems map. The nesting-depth row was rewritten from a full 32-region capture, having been written from four.
  • A build of an engine nests under it rather than taking a row beside it, and maintainedByAuthor is keyed on the project, so it now reads true for the WebAssembly build. That build runs in CI like every other target, where its row had been refreshed by hand.
  • The board leads with the highest-graded engine, since the baseline moved into a panel above the standings. Where that is the board author's own engine, the conflict-of-interest disclosure sits on the card.
  • The Region column is gone. It named the cohort a target matched at its best rate, which read as breadth. The count sits beside the figure instead, and the cohort listing stays on the target page.
  • Each target lists how it is actually distributed, with the project's own page for each. These are the only claims on the board the suite does not measure, so each carries the link that backs it.
