What is a .puml file?

A PUML file contains a PlantUML diagram written as text — sequence, class, use-case, activity, and other UML diagrams described in a compact syntax that PlantUML renders to an image. It is a popular diagrams-as-code format.

How to use this file

Use an example PlantUML file to test diagram rendering and parsing, and PlantUML-to-image conversion in documentation pipelines.

How to use this file for testing

“PlantUML Sequence Diagram” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Conversion testing, Editor testing. The same content exported across many formats and linked as a group, so you can convert one and diff against the expected twin.

Documented properties for this file: PlantUML. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such — expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Data fixtures document their exact quirks — delimiters, encodings, null handling, schema, and row counts — in the spec table. Point your parser or importer at the file and assert it handles the documented edge cases; clean and deliberately-messy siblings make before/after diffs straightforward.
