For a free note app export, I would check row count first and then one exact row. Row count catches the loud failure: half the notes are missing, archived notes were skipped, or a filter stayed on during export. One exact row catches the quiet failure: commas break titles, quotes disappear, empty fields become the word `null`, or dates shift because the source timezone was not kept. My quick order now: 1. export from a small folder 2. compare visible note count with CSV row count 3. pick one note with a comma in the title 4. pick one note with an empty optional field 5. check whether the date still means the same day after opening the file elsewhere If those pass, I still would not call the export perfect. I would call it safe enough for a larger test. That distinction matters because a backup routine should fail small before it fails with every note.
