Tests

Todos

There is limited validation for field inputs. Strings that are too long will be truncated. Required/mandatory fields are currently not enforced.

Other missing elements:

• Addenda support added in v1.9+
• BOC, ARC, POP Entry records
• Corporate Trade Exchange Entries
• Point of Sale Entries
• Notification of Change Entry (COR)
• Return entries

Support for the above elements should be rather easy to implement, as the models were built with them in mind. Put in a pull request if you have an immediate need for one of the above features.
