Is it possible you changed the data after you initially ran the tests?
Tests only run again if a change is detected.  Perhaps the data files are
not included in this change detection??

Yep, looks great.  Thanks!

I modified it slightly from:
Note that invalid linestrings can come from other sources like ways with
