JSON-LD with wrong value types and a relative context (deliberately invalid)

A deliberately invalid Recipe carrying six unambiguously wrong-typed values - a numeric datePublished, a prose prepTime where an ISO 8601 duration belongs, an object recipeYield, two non-numeric ratings and a misspelled @type - plus a relative @context that never resolves, an untyped image object and two ingredients crammed into one string. For testing the limits of type coercion.

Testing contract

Expected to fail
Scenario
Parse a document whose @context is relative and whose values have the wrong types.
Expected result
@context fails to resolve against schema.org so no term is expanded, and six type errors are reported - datePublished, prepTime, recipeYield, ratingValue, ratingCount and the unknown type `Persson` - rather than any of them being coerced.

What is a .json file?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text-based data-interchange format representing objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans, and null. It is language-independent, human-readable, and the dominant format for web APIs and configuration. It requires a single well-formed root value.

How to use this file

Use an example JSON file to test parsers and serializers, schema validation, Unicode and number-precision handling, and API request or response processing.

How to use this file for testing

“JSON-LD with wrong value types and a relative context (deliberately invalid)” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Web assets, JSON parsing, Schema validation, Metadata testing. Favicons, web app manifests, service workers, robots and sitemap files, Open Graph images, and .well-known resources — for testing web tooling, crawlers, PWA installers, and asset pipelines.

Documented properties for this file: seed 70400 · UTF-8 · JSON-LD (schema.org). Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such — expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Web-platform fixtures are standards-compliant samples against fictional example.com data. Test crawlers, PWA installers and manifest validators, favicon/icon pipelines, service-worker registration, or .well-known parsers against the documented structure.
