PARSE AND CLASSIFICATION
  ok    expected=OK/INTEGRAL         POSITIVE CONTROL: a well-formed single integral element
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      THE DEAD-PARSE TRAP: a count with no rows behind it
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      rows with no count at all
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      two count records
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      a count that is not a number
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      a negative count
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      fewer rows than the count declares
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      more rows than the count declares
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      a duplicated row index
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      a gap in the row indices
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      types without values
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      values without types
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      a row key the parser does not understand
  ok    expected=ERROR/VOID          an error row on its own
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      an error row smuggled in beside results
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      two error rows
  ok    expected=MALFORMED/VOID      silence from the arm being read
  ok    expected=OK/EMPTY            an honest empty array is parsed, and classifies as EMPTY, never as a pass
  ok    expected=OK/STRING           THE FIELD DEFECT: adapted display text
  ok    expected=OK/STRING           one string hiding among integers still classifies STRING
  ok    expected=OK/OTHER            a boolean element is neither string nor integral
  ok    expected=OK/OTHER            a null element is not an integral code
  ok    expected=OK/STRING           a numeric-looking STRING is still a string

ELEMENT-FOR-ELEMENT COMPARISON against a reference of [1]
  ok    expected=MATCH               a subject equal to the rule MATCHes
  ok    expected=MISMATCH            a hardcoded number the rule does not carry MISMATCHes
  ok    expected=MISMATCH            a repeated code is a different array and MISMATCHes
  ok    expected=VOID                an unparsable subject cannot be compared at all

BLOCK EXTRACTION over synthetic line arrays (no file is read)
  ok    expected=1                   a self-closing line extracts as ONE line
  ok    expected=3                   a multiline block extracts to its closing line
  ok    expected=True                a block that never closes returns nothing

HARNESS NEGATIVE CONTROL (this one is declared wrong on purpose)
  ok    a STRING arm declared INTEGRAL must be reported as a mismatch

CASES=30 FAILED=0
PARSER_CONTROL_PASS every malformed capture was rejected and the positive control parsed

EXIT=0
