Hmm, I can't repro on my machine, but I am running OS X. @timparenti do you have any ideas?

As a substitute, @DonKrieger , there's a generated PDF at https://github.com/laboon/software-testing/blob/master/software-testing-laboon-ebook.pdf
from ebook.
Hi Bill,
I’ll think about it and let you know if I find the problem.
Thanks for putting up the complete pdf which I will download later.
I think it must have worked fine for the others who’ve downloaded the book.
My installation is brand new and totally untested since I had to install pandoc, pdflatex, and xelatex to do the make.
In addition I puzzled out enough about github to clone your “whatever it’s called” and likely did it wrong enough to cause the failure.
The free software thing is wonderful but the dependency piece of it is a nightmare.
Best regards,
Don

I notice that pandoc
1.12.2.1 is from December 2013. For comparison, I am running:
- pandoc.exe 1.15.0.6 Compiled with texmath 0.8.2.2, highlighting-kate 0.6.
- pdfTeX 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.16 (TeX Live 2015/Cygwin) kpathsea version 6.2.1
- XeTeX 3.14159265-2.6-0.99992 (TeX Live 2015/Cygwin) kpathsea version 6.2.1
In the dump above, the line in question is apparently converted to:
A string of non-alphabetic characters, e.g. \lstinline!78 &^\item
which is invalid LaTeX, as the \lstinline
is not closed before the new \item
begins.
pandoc
1.15.0.6, by contrast, gives the much more carefully escaped:
\item
A string of non-alphabetic characters, e.g.
\texttt{78\ \&\^{}\%\ 0()\ {[}{]}}
\item
At first glance, it would seem that something to do with escaping these special characters has been fixed in more recent versions of pandoc
.

Since this looks like a versioning issue with pandoc, I'm going to close this issue.

Hi Bill,
I agree.
I just heard from Rob and we are planning to talk about it early next week – I’m not sure when.
If you post your thoughts and timing needs to us it might help.
Have a good weekend.
Best regards,
Don
