February 2024 – We are thrilled to unveil the newest feature added to our ConversionQA product: Ignoring Change.
ConversionQA, our powerful tool for ensuring the accuracy of document conversion, now empowers users to specify content that they already know will differ during the conversion process. This could include content in the source that will not be converted or new boilerplate content added by templates to the target. Rather than flagging this content as a change, users can now specify an XPath for such content, allowing ConversionQA to intelligently ignore it during the comparison process.
In short, our new ConversionQA feature simplifies the comparison process even further, making it faster, clearer, and more reliable when true change has occurred.
By incorporating ignoring change into the comparison process, users ensure precision and focus on unexpected differences. This is particularly useful in scenarios where discrepancies between source and target documents are anticipated, such as partial conversions or the addition of supplementary content. For instance, in the case of a drug company storing internal drug information, only relevant data is converted into a label interchange format for labeling purposes. This means there will be some information in the source that isn’t present in the target. With ConversionQA, users can now specify the content that will not be converted, ensuring it doesn’t flag as a change in the report.
Example:
ignoreElements="*:metadata"
Furthermore, users can confidently rely on ConversionQA even when exact content equivalence is unattainable, such as during partial conversions or the incorporation of additional content into the target document such as metadata. This enhanced usability renders ConversionQA a versatile solution adaptable to various industries and conversion scenarios.
By eliminating false positives and focusing on relevant changes, users can quickly identify and address meaningful changes, accelerating decision-making and improving overall efficiency. In technical documentation workflows, for example, ignoring changes ensures the accuracy and precision of converted documents by specifying known differences. This allows technical documentation teams to maintain the integrity and clarity of the documentation throughout the conversion process.
For existing users of ConversionQA, this feature is already at your fingertips. Simply update to the latest version and utilise the “ignoreElements” argument when conducting a conversion check through the command line or REST API.
