Two MST employees who are also Veterans completed validation testing of the MST production implementation last week.

• Confirmed their Veteran status in the Benefits using Login.gov.
• Registered their contactless bank card in the Benefits app with Littlepay.
• Tapped validators with the registered bank card to confirm the Littlepay products are functioning as expected.

@o-ram Confirmed seeing the transactions in Metabase and I am able to see the enrollments in Amplitude.

We also recruited another Veteran not at MST for testing. He was able to confirm eligibility as well using his iPhone "in a couple minutes."

Thus, we have documented results the production implementation works as expected. This is the "happy path;" we'll be on the lookout for edge cases where Veterans eligibility fails.
