Improve printer test code #180

Closed scott-r closed 5 months ago

scott-r commented 5 months ago

Minor improvements to the test code for receipt printing:

Incorporate all special characters, e.g. upper and lower-case accented vowels
Remove use of current date so that the expected output is always the same

It's not practical to make this change because every service receipt includes the date of service (i.e. current date). However, the test receipt generated by the print server itself is deterministic (no reference to current date and time) and it includes all special characters we use.

That should be sufficient for doing regression testing on print server changes.
