What to check in the practice result

NornaForms accepts the form (“4 text fields on 1 pages”) and the CSV (“3 rows, 4 columns”), maps 4 of 4 fields and reports “Checks finished: all 3 row(s) pass, 3 warning(s)”. The warnings only say that spaces in file names became “_”. The browser downloads workshop-certificate-form-3-copies.zip containing certificate-Ada_Example.pdf, certificate-Bruno_Sample.pdf, certificate-Chen_Placeholder.pdf and _nornaforms-report.csv. Each PDF's fields hold that participant's values.
