Current Sky Calculation Layer Validated
The Numji Current Sky infrastructure was benchmarked against main chart results and independent software controls across 250 test cases generated from diverse dates, times, geographic locations, and time zones. A total of 4,759 checks were performed for planets, special points, houses, sky aspects, Moon phase, filters, and result counters.
Local time–UTC conversion, planet and special point data, houses and axes, chart sect, sky aspects, orb filters, Moon phase, illumination percentage, retrograde–stationary–applying counters, and user filters passed all defined controls. No failed or erroneous results were found.
Validated Current Sky Calculations
Primary result groups of the sky view generated by the page for a specific date, time, and location.
TIME, LOCATION, AND HOUSES
The UTC equivalent of local date-time, selected latitude, longitude, and GMT offset, along with ASC–MC–DSC–IC axes and twelve house cusps, were compared against main chart generation.
PLANETS AND SPECIAL POINTS
Planetary longitudes, ecliptic latitudes, daily speeds, direct–retrograde–stationary states, and house placements were checked for complete data transmission.
SKY ASPECTS
Parties involved in major aspects, aspect types, actual angular distances, orb values, applying–separating states, and orb sorting were examined.
MOON PHASE AND ILLUMINATION
Sun–Moon elongation, octal classification of Moon phase, waxing–waning distinction, and illumination percentage were reproduced using independent mathematical calculations.
Validation Results
Overall results of the tested calculation, filtering, and protection layers.
| Control Group | Scope | Evaluation | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Local time and UTC | Date, time, and GMT offset | Compliant with expected UTC moment | Passed |
| Houses, axes, and chart sect | House system and day/night division | Compliant with main chart result | Passed |
| Planets and special points | Position, speed, motion, and house | Compliant with main chart result | Passed |
| Sky aspects | Type, angle, orb, and applying state | Compliant with filter and sorting rules | Passed |
| Moon phase | Elongation, illumination, and phase name | Compliant with independent calculation | Passed |
| Result counters | Retrograde, stationary, and applying aspects | Compliant with list contents | Passed |
| Moon, special point, and orb filters | Content scope and orb monotonicity | Compliant with user options | Passed |
| Repeatability and input protections | Identical requests and invalid/NaN values | Expected behavior verified | Passed |
| Total | 250 cases · 4,759 comparisons | 4,759 compliant · 0 errors | Passed |
Protections Strengthened During Testing
Input boundary gaps identified during quick validation were fixed and re-tested across the full validation suite.
NaN AND INFINITE VALUES
Non-numeric or infinite values in latitude, longitude, and GMT offset fields were prevented from entering the calculation chain. These inputs are now explicitly and safely rejected.
REGRESSION TESTING
After adding input protections, calculations for planets, houses, aspects, Moon phases, and filters were re-run; no regressions were observed in existing passing results.
Test Methodology
Time, geography, and user options were diversified to ensure results do not depend on a single day or location.
SCOPE
- 250 distinct test cases
- Dates ranging between 1900 and 2100
- Diverse latitudes, longitudes, and UTC offsets
- Total of 4,759 comparisons
- Geographic diversity via the Placidus house system
COMPARATIVE CONTROLS
- One-to-one transfer verification against main chart data
- Independent calculation of Moon phase and illumination
- Re-establishment of aspect filters and sorting
- Re-counting of result counters from output lists
OPTION BEHAVIORS
Exclusion of relevant bodies and aspects when Moon and special points are toggled off; verification that tight-orb results remain a subset of the wide-orb set.
INDEPENDENT TEST SUITE
Validation was executed in a standalone console application. Results were recorded via JSON, Markdown, and CSV reports.
What Does This Result Mean for User and Astrologer?
Planetary degrees, house placements, aspects, Moon phase, and motion indicators displayed on the Current Sky page have passed software checks covering diverse times and locations. This demonstrates that the sky view consistently relies on defined calculation and filtering rules.
