A virtual boundary depends on location updates, connectivity and app behavior. Test its documented operation in a controlled setting without using an escape as the test.
What to check
| Check | What to verify |
|---|---|
| Boundary | Check the mapped area. |
| Updates | Read location interval settings. |
| Backup | Maintain physical containment and supervision. |

A practical example
An alert may arrive after a location update rather than at the exact instant a boundary is crossed.
Before you decide
A geofence is a notification feature, not a physical barrier.
