What matters is that we validate that test data is not removed. Keeping the
test data is the most obvious way, but not the only way.

The import-and-save and load-and-check parts of the tests don't have to be
actually the same test cases.
Introduce the terms “forward compatibility” and “backward compatibility” and
relate them to import-and-save and load-and-check actions.
These are clarifications of intent that do not represent an intended change
in the strategy or intended coverage.

Initial revision.
Save-compare-load approach: the test case data contains attributes of
the object under test and the expected file content. Create the
object, save it, check that the file has the expected content, load
the file and check that the new object has the expected attributes.
