  Plan

  • Review the output data structure in a way it is standardized either if the data is viewed by row or by column
  • Separate the data validation vs the data processing, move the tabular data validation into a developer version of the plugin
  • Create a complete test suite with pre-defined expected output and error (Include at least the tables example in the 12 techniques for complex tables)
