Triage Empty and Null Value Confusion in Imports
Separate empty text, missing values, and explicit null markers by comparing source representation, parsing, validation, and final field behavior.
-
Prioritize Empty and Null Import Defects
Rank blank-value problems by unintended overwrites, misleading defaults, affected field contracts, and whether users can see the distinction before import.
-
Investigate Empty, Missing, and Null Import Semantics
Build a representation matrix to trace where parsing, defaulting, validation, or update assignment merges distinct empty and null meanings.
-
Verify Empty and Null Values Across an Import
Check source representations against exact stored values and update behavior, including unchanged fields, explicit clearing, and supported null markers.
-
Maintain Clear Empty and Null Import Rules
Document field-level blank semantics and retain examples that distinguish empty text, null markers, omitted values, and unchanged update state.
-
Triage Decimal Separator Errors in Imports
Locate numeric interpretation errors by comparing source strings, locale conventions, parsed values, and displayed units before changing formatting.
-
Prioritize Decimal Parsing Defects in Imports
Assess numeric separator problems by changed magnitude, silent acceptance, affected producer conventions, and the reliability of correction before import.
-
Investigate Locale-Sensitive Decimal Imports
Compare explicit numeric conventions, grouping rules, quoting, and stored magnitudes with controlled source strings that distinguish parsing hypotheses.
-
Verify Decimal and Grouping Separators in Imports
Check intended numeric magnitude across supported conventions, ambiguous values, preview choices, stored numbers, and later display or calculations.
-
Prevent Repeat Decimal Separator Import Mistakes
Document numeric convention selection and retain contrasting source strings that expose magnitude changes, grouping ambiguity, and preview disagreements.
-
Triage Duplicate Column Labels in an Import
Trace identically named source columns by position and value to see where preview labels, mappings, or imported fields become ambiguous.
-
Prioritize Duplicate Header Mapping Defects
Rank repeated-column-label problems by silent value loss, affected export layouts, mapping clarity, and the effort needed to reconcile accepted imports.
-
Investigate How Imports Identify Duplicate Headers
Follow column position, normalized labels, mapping keys, and final assignment to locate where distinct repeated columns collapse into one identity.
-
Verify Duplicate Headers Stay Distinct During Import
Check repeated labels, normalized collisions, mapping choices, column order changes, and exact destination values through the full import flow.
-
Prevent Duplicate Column Identity Mistakes
Document how import columns are identified and retain repeated-label fixtures that expose silent merging, normalization collisions, and mapping handoff errors.
-
Triage Import Failures Hidden by Preview Sampling
Compare sampled and later records to find whether an import preview omits the values that change inferred types, structure, or validation outcomes.
-
Prioritize Import Preview Coverage Gaps
Rank sampling gaps by misleading readiness claims, late failures, silent coercion, file exposure, and the cost of discovering problems after confirmation.
-
Investigate Import Preview Sampling Blind Spots
Move a controlled exceptional record around the sample boundary to distinguish inference coverage, full-file validation, and execution setting drift.
-
Verify Import Preview Coverage and Readiness Claims
Check exceptional records before and after sampling boundaries and compare readiness messages with actual full-file validation and import outcomes.
-
Keep Import Sampling Limits Clear and Testable
Document preview coverage and retain boundary-placement fixtures so new inference rules or readiness messages do not overstate full-file validity.
-
Triage Differences Between Import Preview and Execution
Compare file identity, mapping revisions, selected options, and final values to locate where an approved preview diverges from the executed import.
-
Prioritize Import Preview and Execution Mismatches
Rank preview drift by silently changed destinations, affected editing paths, reversibility, and the ability to review the exact inputs before execution.
-
Investigate Import Preview-to-Execution Handoffs
Trace file revisions, mapping persistence, option changes, and queued execution to reproduce the smallest sequence that changes approved import inputs.
-
Verify Imports Execute the Reviewed Preview
Check file replacement, mapping edits, navigation, and delayed execution against the exact source and options approved at confirmation.
-
Preserve the Import Preview’s Approval Boundary
Document which file and settings confirmation binds, and retain revision-change scenarios that expose stale previews or mutable execution inputs.
