Checks

a run passes when

length(output.listings) > `20`
output.total > `100`
length(output.listings[?top_ad]) == `0`
length(output.listings[?price_cad > `300`]) == `0`
length(output.listings[?starts_with(url, 'https://www.kijiji.ca/v-')]) == length(output.listings)
output.listings[*].listed == reverse(sort(output.listings[*].listed))

Raw recipe

Served as canonical JSON from /api/v1/recipes/kijiji.ca/search-listings, so its sha256 matches the ETag and the index.
