Tested locally with smaller files to focus on counts in acceptance criteria, most of which passed.

In all cases, job statistics show <number of new germplasm + number of pedigree connections added> for total and completed counts. This confirms that synonyms are not counted in job statistics, clarifying the discussed difference in acceptance criteria, but also conflicts with the acceptance criteria which seems to assume that the total and completed counts should be <number of new germplasm + number of existing germplasm with changed pedigrees> in the case of a file with existing and new germplasm and pedigree changes or 0 in the case that the file only consists of existing germplasm with pedigree changes. Could you clarify which is the expected behavior?

Thanks! Updated acceptance criteria to be X rather than 0 for first and germplasm + pedigree connections for last.
