SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a safe, isolated environment to verify the integrity of the FileMaker XML conversion pipeline without risking production data or requiring a full system setup.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Isolated Testing: Runs conversions against a dedicated test database (fm_test.duckdb) to ensure production data remains untouched.
  • Automated Provisioning: Automatically manages test fixtures by syncing reference data from the ooe-fm repository.
  • Use Case: Use this skill to validate that new XML export structures from FileMaker are correctly parsed and mapped into the DuckDB catalog before deploying changes to your main solution analysis workflow.

Quick Start

Run the test-convert-xml skill to execute the full conversion test suite on the current reference data.

Frequently Asked Questions about test-convert-xml

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I test FileMaker XML conversion to DuckDB safely?▼

You can validate FileMaker XML conversion to DuckDB by running shell-based scripts that process reference SaXML files into an isolated fm_test.duckdb database, verifying schema mapping without touching production data.

Why does my FileMaker XML to DuckDB conversion mapping fail?▼

FileMaker XML to DuckDB conversion mapping fails when reference SaXML files are not synced from the ooe-fm repository or when new XML export structures are incorrectly parsed by the conversion pipeline scripts.

Do I need the ooe-fm repository to run FileMaker XML conversion tests?▼

Yes, the ooe-fm repository must be present to run FileMaker XML conversion tests, because the skill automatically syncs reference data from it to provision the required test fixtures for the DuckDB pipeline.

Can I use shell scripts to automate FileMaker XML data conversion testing?▼

Yes, you can use shell scripts to automate FileMaker XML data conversion testing by executing a full test suite that automatically provisions a dedicated DuckDB database for regression testing and schema verification.

What is regression testing for FileMaker solution analysis workflows?▼

Regression testing for FileMaker solution analysis workflows is the process of validating XML-to-DuckDB data mapping accuracy to ensure new export structures parse correctly before deploying changes to the main workflow.
