TABLE REPORT

Suppose you need to scrape a financial report organized as a table. This test checks the scraper's ability to:

1. Support tables with indefinite number of rows and columns
2. Tolerate merged columns and rows
3. Parse currency format
4. Extract only a certain year

To change the table you may use the following parameters:

• products - number of product columns (from 1 to 50)
• years - number of year sections in the report
• quarters - number of quarters in the last year

There should be a one year section with a merged column (for Product 3), and if more than one year are shown, there should be one or more merged cells in some quarter rows (for Products 1 and 2). All merged cells in the report contain a hyphen only.

For testing, you may use the following sample links. The scraper should sufficiently scrape all data from the reports using the same project:

• 3 products, 3 years
• 1 product, 1 quarter
• 4 products, 2.5 years
• 10 products, 10 years
