  • Verify one performance diagnosis cause the evidence can prove or reject.

What to check

To keep the test readable, start with what changed after a tracking change. Compare performance diagnosis, Meta Ads guide and the business result.

For a safer decision, attach one observable proof to each completed check. If reporting shows metrics but not decisions, verify the input before editing.
