Query, change a line quantity, press Next; Cancel, then Next again and No.
Unmapped values are recorded on the original but have no counterpart the mapping names in the migrated app, so they are listed, not compared, and are not defects. Here: alert titles (6); the Forms record indicator ("Record: 1/2" in the status bar) (8); ORDER_ITEMS.ORDER_ID_FK, a Forms item with no field in the migrated screen (40); the list of open Forms windows (8).
Three runs from a fresh database gave byte-identical diffs. Behaviour that looks odd in the migrated app but is the original's: faithful to the original and waivers. Files: scenario, golden record, target record, diff (JSON).
Scenario steps
Items are addressed by their Forms name (BLOCK.ITEM[row]), the same name in the
original and, through the mapping, in the migrated app.
| # | Step | Action | Checked on the original |

Screens, step by step
Left: the original Oracle Forms application, recorded on a virtual display. Right: the migrated application in headless Chromium. Screenshots are evidence only; the comparison works on the recorded values.

Golden record of the original
After each step: the focus, the displayed values that changed, the message line and any alert. The full record (every item of every step, windows, lists of values) is in the JSON file.

Waivers
No waiver applies to this scenario: every compared value matches or is within the tolerance policy.
