| 7 | +This is a simple java tool to check diff between two excel files. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +## Prerequisites |
| 10 | +Java 8+ |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +## Usage |
| 13 | +java -jar excel-diff-checker.jar \<File1-path> \<File2-path> [r] -> where File1 and File2 are mandatory, option: 'r' is optional. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +## Notes to follow |
| 16 | + - This tool is not having any complex algorithm to check diff, so won't be able to detect column/row addition/deletion. |
| 17 | + - It basically considers File1 as base, and checks for diff cell-by-cell in File2, even for sheets too. |
| 18 | + - By default, it adds cell comments/note saying like 'Expected: value1, Found: value2' in a copy of File1 excel and produces it as a different result file. |
| 19 | + - Instead of above, if only remarks required about different cell diffs i.e. no separate reult file required, in that case, the option: 'r' can be used, which just prints the diff note as mentioned in above point, in the console output and not as cell comment of a new file. |
