Cost Comparison Fixture: AVM-Composed vs Hand-Authored Bicep
By FrootAI Engine Team · CC0-1.0 · Source declared: Pre-filled sample-data.json values; source prices are not independently verified by the script
Not citation-grade evidence
The referenced script replays eight cached examples. No raw 100-workload run, price API receipt, source-template corpus, or deployment evidence is attached.
Do not use this fixture to claim cost, carbon, performance, or product superiority.

Fixture Observations
- 1.The fixture contains eight categories with one cached example per category.
- 2.The script deterministically calculates deltas from those supplied values.
- 3.The fixture is suitable for validating report behavior, not for claiming average savings or production outcomes.
Fixture Design
The reproduction script reads eight pre-filled category examples from sample-data.json and calculates category deltas. It does not query the Azure Retail Prices API, compose 100 workloads, or compare deployed infrastructure. The values exercise Lab chart, table, and report plumbing.
Limitations
- • Only eight pre-filled examples are included.
- • The script does not call the Azure Retail Prices API.
- • No raw 100-workload corpus or independent review is attached.
- • The fixture cannot support a savings, superiority, or production-readiness claim.
