  • Key features

    • SIARD extract testing

        (Requires Java runtime and the DBPTK java library)

    • Test progress display

      • The progress of ongoing testing is now displayed, in the graphical and command line interfaces, as percentage for Noark 5 and ADDML-based extracts and with status messages (GUI) or a progress indicator (CLI) for SIARD extracts

  • Arkade licensing

    • Arkade has moved from the GNU General Public License 3.0 (GNU GPL 3.0) to the GNU Affero General Public License 3.0 (GNU AGPL 3.0) to comply with a 3rd party software requirement and to ensure that the GNU GPL rights are attended in the case that Arkade software is made publicly available as an online service

    • The PDF testreport is now generated as PDF/A
    • The Arkade processing area (arkade-tmp directory) may now be placed directly under C: on Windows
    • Noark 5 test N5.12 no longer reports a zero problems found situation as an error
    • The total numbers of files and records processed in an ADDML based archive extract are now included in test reports made with CLI, making the reports identical for GUI and CLI in all circumstances
