Full evidence review

Test the technology. Show your work.

The standard is demanding because the result becomes a public technical record. The form is organised into five short stages so you can focus on one part of the evidence pack at a time.

1 · Solution identity

Identify the solution precisely

Use official product information. These fields become the public identity record after approval.

Next: document exactly what you tested.
2 · Test scope and evidence

State exactly what you tested

A reader should understand the boundaries of the assessment before reading the conclusion.

Next: score every checkpoint from observed evidence.
3 · Seven-checkpoint worksheet

Record the finding behind the tier

Choose Pass, Partial, Fail or Not assessed for every checkpoint and add the evidence or limitation that supports the result. A marketing statement is not evidence.

Step 1 — The Existence & Accessibility Check

Is it live?

Checking for dead links, infinite loading screens, or "Coming Soon" landing pages masquerading as live products.

Onboarding friction

Can a user or enterprise actually sign up, or is it gated behind broken "Contact Sales" forms?

Step 2 — Functional Testing (The "Try It Out" Phase)

Core loop execution

Does the application actually do what it claims to do? (e.g. a payment gateway completing a test transaction, a logistics app's routing engine working.)

User experience (UX) & interface (UI)

Assessing the logical flow, responsiveness, and basic accessibility of the platform.

Step 3 — Technical & Architectural Assessment

Performance

Load speeds, uptime reliability, and basic stress responses.

Integration readiness

Availability, clarity, and functionality of API documentation and webhooks.

Security basics

SSL certification, basic encryption standards, and data handling transparency.

Next: turn the findings into a defensible tier conclusion.
4 · Tier decision record

Explain the conclusion

The tier must follow from the evidence above. Explain both what supports the tier and what prevents the next one.

Final step: identify who performed the assessment and disclose conflicts.
5 · Reviewer provenance

Stand behind the submission

Your identity and contact details are required for accountability, but remain an internal Sandbox Africa governance record by default. The public review focuses on the evidence and verified assessment unless explicit public attribution is separately enabled.

Before submitting

Sandbox Africa will verify this evidence pack. The public record will distinguish your submitted assessment from the verified publication outcome.
