Error while running tests

[neoncube2]

After cloning this repo, when I run mocha -r ts-node/register test/index.ts, I get this error:

Exception during run: SyntaxError: C:\example\json-2-csv\test\data\json\trimmedFields.json: Unexpected token 'a', "assortedValues.json" is not valid JSON

Indeed, trimmedFields.json is not valid JSON: it just contains the text "assortedValues.json"

Just FYI! :)

Hi @neoncube2, I believe this is because that file is actually a symbolic link, and Windows doesn't seem to handle it correctly. Thanks for reporting this- I'll have to look into alternative approaches that are more cross-platform friendly.

@mrodrig Oh, interesting! :) I didn't realize that Git even supported symbolic links.
