summary
Claims that the Certified Kubernetes Conformance Program drives API interoperability and that the remaining conformance debt will be resolved in 2022, moving from ~20% → >80% endpoint coverage (1.15 → 1.23) after starting near 14% tested. Describes the concrete tooling and pipeline: heptio sonobuoy for test submission, prow gates plus maintainers’ review and a final approver for certification. Notes new endpoints sometimes land without tests and shows steady decline in added technical debt across releases.
