" summary

Kubernetes conformance program starts two years ago and grows from about 22–24 to 102 certified vendors, with badges valid for one year unless re-certified. Current work measures API surface coverage (early releases show ~11% coverage) and aims for roughly 10x coverage. Tooling includes API snoop, TestGrid, a PostgreSQL-backed database, SQL queries and tiny Go snippets compiled-and-run against kind clusters to identify missing tests; several API groups already reach 100% coverage.
