  "description" : "Covers the AU Core Pathology Result Observation (au-core-diagnosticresult-path, 2.0.0) requirements identified in fhirfrog/au-core-compiler#22 (AUC-017): read, search by patient+code/patient+category/patient+category+date (mirroring au-fhir-core-inferno's diagnosticresult_path group), must-support presence across all 22 MS elements - including the category:lab (fixed http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/observation-category|laboratory) and category:specificDiscipline (extensible-bound to the AU THS pathology-diagnostic-service-category ValueSet, e.g. v2-0074|CH for Chemistry) slices - and profile conformance validation. Same obligation-pair split as fhirfrog/au-core-compiler#21's Diagnostic Result Observation TestScript: 'diagnosticresultpath-fixture' is the ordinary case (value[x], interpretation, specimen, referenceRange, and a component all known and populated), and 'diagnosticresultpath-absent-fixture' is the genuinely-not-known case (dataAbsentReason/component.dataAbsentReason instead of value[x]/component.value[x], satisfying the profile's au-core-obs-01 invariant, with hasMember linking back to the ordinary fixture as a panel would). ObligationNoError and ProfileValidationObligationPair exercise the same requester-side SHALL:no-error / au-core-obs-01 machine-checking this profile shares with #21 - see that TestScript's description for why this only became testable once fhirfrog/fhir-frog's AssertionEvaluator gained assert.responseCode support and OperationExecutor's executeSearch started catching BaseServerResponseException. Reference-resolution and the remaining SHOULD/MAY search variants are not replicated - see fhirfrog/au-core-compiler#6 for the general scope rationale.",
