Purposedifferent
Competency Questions translate a domain model into concrete questions that it must be able to answer. The method keeps the model's scope clean and prevents pretty but useless structures.Ontology Design Patterns provide reusable building blocks for recurring modeling problems. The method brings structure to the search for clean concepts, relationships, and roles.The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success.The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible.
