The validator sometimes takes 10 seconds or more to complete, making it feel like it's hanging.
Solution
A progress indicator has been added to provide feedback on validation progress, e.g.
% python3 validator.py
Loaded 128 schemas.
Loaded 45 synthetic IEEE schemas.
Validating test data files: 98% (564/572)
It looks like there's a slowdown for the last few files. Basic profiling indicates that this is caused by establishing SSL connections to GitLab to retrieve IEEE schemas. If this becomes a problem, we can look into parallelising validation.
Miscelleanous
Only files in the test data directory having a .json suffix are now processed. Other files, e.g. .DS_Store, are ignored.
