ehoandClaude Sonnet 5 6fa27d1c53 test: close the remaining FE/BE seams (WP-75)
Three seams WP-71 documented but left unguarded.

Deletes the FE's isHerregistratieEligible and isStatusConsistent — both
uncalled, the first dead by its own doc-comment. Their tests used fixtures
completely disjoint from the backend's (the backend even had an exact-window
boundary case the FE lacked), so the two sides could diverge indefinitely
without failing anything. CLAUDE.md's policy of keeping server-owned rules
as FE "reference impls" is what kept them alive, so it is amended: the FE may
mirror a server-supplied value for instant feedback, never reimplement the
algorithm. registration.policy.ts keeps its three live exports.

check-seam.sh now also guards the Besluit tag list — the C# enum and the TS
BESLUIT_TAGS array are identical ordered name lists with nothing linking
them, and Enum.TryParse fails at request time rather than build time. Anchored
on the full declaration so it avoids the "greps all matches" trap WP-69 hit.

The phone-format divergence turned out to be real, not latent as recorded:
the backend returned 422 for +31612345678 and (06) 12345678, both of which
the FE's own parseTelefoonnummer accepts. A grep check would have compared
the shared ^0\d{9}$ regex and reported all clear — the difference was in
stripping. RejectPhoneChange now strips what the FE strips, pinned by a
contract test.

BIG-register BFF (ASP.NET Core)

The backend that hosts the business rules for the BIG-register portal. The frontend renders the decisions this service computes; it does not recompute them (BFF-lite + decision DTOs — see ../docs/reference/architecture/0001-bff-lite-decision-dtos.md).

No real BRP/DUO: the reference data they'd return (registration, person, diplomas, notes — Data/SeedData.cs) is in-memory and seeded, but the endpoints, DTOs, status codes and error envelope are production-shaped.

Applications, documents and the brief persist to a SQLite file (src/BigRegister.Api/bigregister.db, EF Core-backed — Data/AppDbContext.cs, Data/Db.cs) created and migrated on first run; restarting the process (or docker compose restart api — the existing ./backend:/src bind mount already covers it, see docker-compose.yml) does not lose data. Delete the file to reset demo data back to empty, the same state a fresh clone starts from. This is a deliberate, right-sized choice for a POC (SQLite, no external DB service) — see docs/project/backlog/WP-22-durable-persistence.md.

Run

Everything (docker-compose, from repo root)

docker compose up

Backend only (local)

cd backend
dotnet run --project src/BigRegister.Api
# → http://localhost:5000/swagger

Frontend against a local backend

npm start          # ng serve, proxies /api → http://localhost:5000 (proxy.conf.json)

Tests

cd backend && dotnet test      # rule unit tests + endpoint integration tests

API

Method Route Purpose
GET /api/dashboard-view registration + person + computed herregistratie decision
GET /api/notes specialisms / aantekeningen
GET /api/brp/address BRP address lookup (gevonden:false = no address)
GET /api/duo/diplomas diplomas with derived profession + applicable policy questions, + manual fallback
GET /api/intake/policy scholing threshold (config value)
POST /api/registrations submit registration → reference, or 422 (manual diploma)

Rejections use ProblemDetails (RFC 7807) with status 422. Every request carries an X-Correlation-Id (set by the FE fetch adapter); the backend echoes it into a no-PII submit-audit log line (kind, outcome, reference, correlation id) — the seam for real structured logging / an audit store.

Versioning

Endpoints live under /api/v1. Additive changes (a new optional field) stay on v1: the NSwag-generated client and the FE parse* boundary ignore unknown fields, so old clients keep working. A breaking change (renamed/removed field, changed semantics) is introduced as /api/v2 served alongside v1 until clients migrate.

Where the rules live (src/BigRegister.Api/Domain/)

  • Diplomas/DiplomaRules.cs — profession derivation + which policy questions apply.
  • Registrations/HerregistratieRule.cs — eligibility + reason + status invariant.
  • Intake/IntakePolicy.cs — scholing threshold + completeness re-validation on submit (RejectIncompleteScholing, WP-69).
  • Submissions/SubmissionRules.cs — submit rejections + reference generation.

Typed client (NSwag)

The frontend calls this API through a generated TypeScript client. Regenerate it from the contract after a shape change:

npm run gen:api    # builds backend → swagger.json → src/app/shared/infrastructure/api-client.ts

Maintainability: changing a policy is one backend change

Goal: require every Verpleegkundige diploma to confirm a Dutch skills assessment. This is a new policy question on a diploma type.

Edit one fileDomain/Diplomas/DiplomaRules.cs:

 public static IReadOnlyList<PolicyQuestion> QuestionsFor(Diploma d)
 {
     var questions = new List<PolicyQuestion>();
     if (d.Engelstalig)
         questions.Add(NlTaalEngelstalig);
+    if (d.Opleiding == "verpleegkunde")
+        questions.Add(new PolicyQuestion(
+            "bekwaamheid",
+            "Heeft u in de afgelopen vijf jaar een bekwaamheidstoets afgelegd?",
+            QuestionType.JaNee));
     return questions;
 }

Rebuild the backend (docker compose up or dotnet run). The new question now appears in the registration wizard for HBO-Verpleegkunde.

  • No frontend change. The FE renders whatever questions the API returns.
  • No client regeneration. The wire shape (PolicyQuestionDto) is unchanged — only the data behind it. npm run gen:api is only needed when a DTO shape changes.

Add a unit test for the new rule in tests/BigRegister.Tests/RuleTests.cs and you're done.
