EPUB Conformance Matrix (wave p7) - Fixture Index
A plain-text index of every EPUB and FB2 fixture in this wave: its validity class, its subcategory, and the scenario and expected result published for it. Generated from the same entry list that builds the catalogue, so it cannot describe a file that is not there.
NOVUS EXAMPLES - EPUB CONFORMANCE MATRIX (wave p7)
==========================================================================
Every fixture in this wave, the feature it isolates, and how it should behave.

- Use the matrix to pick which fixtures a reader or converter should be run against.
- Expected result
- Each listed filename exists in this category with the stated validity, and the scenario and expected result match the file page for that fixture.
What is a .txt file?
TXT is a plain-text file containing unformatted character data with no styling or structure beyond line breaks. Its interpretation depends on character encoding, most commonly UTF-8, and on line-ending convention. It is the most universal and portable text container.
How to use this file
Use an example TXT to test encoding detection, line-ending (LF versus CRLF) handling, and any tool that reads or streams raw text input.
How to use this file for testing
“EPUB Conformance Matrix (wave p7) - Fixture Index” 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: seed 20260807 · UTF-8 · LF. 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.
E-book fixtures are structured archives documented down to their spine and manifest. Test readers and converters, and where a valid↔intentionally-invalid pair exists, assert graceful handling of the malformed container.
