Differentiate business vs code requirements?

[chaals]

There are some requirements that seem to be untestable at the level of code, and further don't seem likely to have an impact on whether a BPI functions correctly.

E.g. If two organisations don't meet

[R3] There MUST be a legally binding contract, however simple and temporary, before a commercial transaction — such as an order — between parties takes place.

is there anything in the code, or in executing the code, that will be different to when the condition is met?

If there is no difference, then it might be helpful to define different types of requirement. That way, people trying to write a spec-compliant implementation aren't left wondering how they ensure their code meets the requirement.

@chaals ... all the requirements are testable in code. Just need to be clever how this is done. Again see the started implementation guide for examples to make "business" requirements testable in code.

@chaals ... per decision in the WG meeting, please, respond to the above response. Otherwise, the issue will be closed at the next WG meeting.

I cannot find the implementation guide. I would like a pointer, and two more weeks, to understand this before the issue is closed, please
