# 100-Point Popperian Falsification Checklist
## probar-js-gen: NASA/DO-178B-Grade JavaScript Generation DSL
> "A theory is scientific if and only if it is falsifiable."
> — Karl Popper, _The Logic of Scientific Discovery_ (1959)
This document provides a 100-point falsification checklist for `probar-js-gen`.
Each claim is testable and refutable. **Any single failure invalidates the system.**

## Toyota Way Principles Applied
### Jidoka (Automation with Human Touch)
- **Stop the Line**: Any invariant violation halts generation
- **Andon**: Clear error messages with regeneration instructions
- **Poka-Yoke**: Type system prevents invalid states
### Genchi Genbutsu (Go and See)
- **No Raw Strings**: All JS generated from typed HIR
- **Observable State**: Generation metadata in manifest
### Kaizen (Continuous Improvement)
- **Property Tests**: 1000+ random cases per property
- **Mutation Testing**: 85%+ mutation score required
### Yokoten (Horizontal Deployment)
- **Reusable DSL**: Same patterns for Workers, Worklets, any JS

## Falsification Protocol
1. **Claim Selection**: Pick any row from checklist
2. **Test Construction**: Write test that would fail if claim is false
3. **Execution**: Run test with adversarial inputs
4. **Verdict**: If test fails, claim is falsified → fix required
### Example Falsification Attempt
**Claim #41**: "No `window.` in Worker code"
```rust
#[test]
fn falsify_no_window_in_worker() {
// Attempt to generate code that includes window
let module = JsModuleBuilder::new()
.expr(Expr::ident("window").unwrap().dot("alert").unwrap().call(vec![]))
.build();
let js = generate(&module);
// This SHOULD fail because Identifier::new("window")
// should be forbidden for Worker context
// If this test passes, the claim is NOT falsified
assert!(!js.contains("window."));
}
```
