+# How to Fix Tests in the einvoice Library
+
+## Important: You CAN Modify the Library Code!
+
+When tests fail, the goal is to fix the root causes in the einvoice library itself, not just adjust test expectations.
+
+### Key Points:
+
+1. **Tests reveal bugs** - If a test shows that UTF-8 characters aren't preserved, that's a bug in the library
+2. **Fix the library** - Modify the code in `ts/` to make the tests pass
+3. **Maintain spec compliance** - The goal is to be as spec-compliant as possible
+4. **Don't lower expectations** - Don't make tests pass by accepting broken behavior
+
+### Common Issues to Fix:
+
+1. **UTF-8 Character Preservation**
+   - Special characters should be preserved in all fields
+   - Invoice IDs with special characters should work
+   - Subject and notes fields should maintain their content
+
+2. **Round-trip Conversion**
+   - Data exported to XML and imported back should remain the same
+   - All fields should be preserved during import/export
+
+3. **Character Encoding**
+   - XML should properly handle all UTF-8 characters
+   - Special XML characters (&, <, >, ", ') should be properly escaped
+   - Unicode characters should be preserved, not converted to entities
+
+### Process:
+
+1. Run the failing test
+2. Identify what the library is doing wrong
+3. Fix the library code in `ts/`
+4. Verify the test now passes
+5. Ensure no other tests break
+
+Remember: The tests are there to improve the einvoice library!
