Reported: EDIT on + ON-AIR on, signed out → the button reads "Test Stream" and cannot be pressed.
Cause: the primary button bound straight to StartTestCommand, whose CanExecute needs a connection.
StartSession already routed signed-out ON-AIR to the sign-in flow; the test path bypassed it.
The route is now explicit and pure: RouteFor(kind, connected) → SignIn | Record | Live | Test. The
primary command calls SignInAsync for the SignIn route, BeginTestStream for Test, StartSession
otherwise — so the label, the action and the sign-in fallback cannot drift apart. Pinned in
SessionStartDecisionTests for both live and test, connected and not.
Creator ruling (2026-10-30):
- EDIT off + ON-AIR armed → the primary button reads "Go Live" and runs the livestream.
- EDIT on + ON-AIR armed → the same button reads "Test Stream" and runs the test broadcast.
- REC armed (or nothing armed) → "Start Recording", whatever EDIT says; there is no test
recording, and an unarmed start records locally rather than doing nothing.
So the fifth button was redundant: `ShowTestButton` no longer feeds any control. The decision is a
pure function (`Models/SessionStartDecision`) so the whole matrix is testable without a window;
`PrimaryStartCommand` follows the same kind, so label and action cannot disagree.
Guard: SessionStartDecisionTests pins the four cases, including the no-dead-ends fallback that my
first version got wrong (unarmed returned Live instead of Record — the test caught it).
Note for the v1 gate: the "hide TEST at v1" item is now satisfied by construction — the test path
is a mode of the primary button, not a separate control.
