      2. note new required/optional attributes for object schemas

   3. Farai almost ready for PR on tests

   4. Next steps: build canonical for functional tests

The first canonical workflow PROCESS for the functional tests:

1. Given this input state (body of HTTP request):

   1. { “integer”: 6, callbackUrl: https://www.example.com/api/callback }

2. multiply the integer by 7

3. assemble a new JSON object of:

   1. { “result”: 42 }

4. then EITHER

   1. send an HTTP post request to the callbackUrl with a request body of { “result”: 42 }

   2. end with a final state of { “result”: 42 } that can be accessed via GET to /api/instances/UUID

   3. perform the entire workflow process synchronously, and respond to the initial request with a result key in the response body { …restOfResponse, result: 42 }
