Closes #686
What has been done to verify that this works as intended?
I've tested the fix with ODK Collect and added automated tests.
Why is this the best possible solution? Were any other approaches considered?
There is not much to discuss here. As mentioned in the issue the value that represents the number of repeats should be coerced to int.
How does this change affect users? Describe intentional changes to behavior and behavior that could have accidentally been affected by code changes. In other words, what are the regression risks?
It's rather a safe change that might affect only how we determine the number of repeats so testing this functionality should be enough.
Do we need any specific form for testing your changes? If so, please attach one.
Any form that allows specifying the number of repeats. I used this one:
RepeatCountTest.xlsx
Does this change require updates to documentation? If so, please file an issue here and include the link below.
