Cedar Street Tacos: Till import in the European dialect

Till import in the European dialect for Cedar Street Tacos. The same 21 rows as pos-import.csv in the other dialect a till exports: semicolon delimited, decimal comma in the price column, Latin-1 encoded and CRLF terminated. It carries the non-ASCII characters "ï", so reading it as UTF-8 raises a decode error instead of silently producing mojibake.

Expected to pass
Scenario
Use till import in the european dialect in the Cedar Street Tacos menu, allergen and till import workflow.
Expected result
The same 21 rows as pos-import.csv in the other dialect a till exports: semicolon delimited, decimal comma in the price column, Latin-1 encoded and CRLF terminated. It carries the non-ASCII characters "ï", so reading it as UTF-8 raises a decode error instead of silently producing mojibake.

What is a .csv file?

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a plain-text tabular format where rows are lines and fields are separated by commas, with quoting rules for values that contain delimiters, quotes, or newlines. It has no formal type system and depends on encoding and dialect conventions. It is the most portable format for tabular data exchange.

How to use this file

Use an example CSV to test parsers against quoting and embedded-delimiter edge cases, header handling, encoding detection, and import pipelines into databases or spreadsheets.

How to use this file for testing

“Cedar Street Tacos: Till import in the European dialect” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Data import, CSV parsing, Encoding detection. Realistic faker-generated datasets with documented schemas for testing import and ETL flows.

Documented properties for this file: 21 rows · 6 columns · ISO-8859-1 · CRLF. 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.
