Duplicate Conferences - Test should failed

The test didn't fail and mark as duplicate multiple conferences:

Was it because the URL and the name are not exactly the same in some cases?

I fill out the form with a duplicate conference and the test did failed. it indeed flag it as

Error: [name] Found almost identical conference...

#7012

I've created a PR which is using string similarity to recognize duplicates. It looks promising:
#7074

Ok. Found a solution which worked for your test cases:
https://github.com/tech-conferences/conference-data/actions/runs/10147310567/job/28057389678
https://github.com/tech-conferences/conference-data/actions/runs/10147207581/job/28057047257

I'm using string compare for the URL and for the URL path and conference name. Got it working only in combination:

conference-data/scripts/utils/mergedConferencesReader.js

Lines 40 to 46 in 896ca1c

    
           const confOfYearSimpleUrl = createSimpleUrl(confOfYear); 
        
           const urlSimilarity = stringSimilarity(confSimpleUrl, confOfYearSimpleUrl); 
        
           if (urlSimilarity > 0.91) { 
        
               console.log(`URL similarity of ${confSimpleUrl} and ${confOfYearSimpleUrl} is ${urlSimilarity}`); 
        
               return confOfYear; 
        
           } 
        
           const similarity = stringSimilarity(confKey, confOfYearKey);

Now also fixed the EuroStar case:
https://github.com/tech-conferences/conference-data/actions/runs/10148014597/job/28059762426?pr=7007

	const confOfYearSimpleUrl = createSimpleUrl(confOfYear);
	const urlSimilarity = stringSimilarity(confSimpleUrl, confOfYearSimpleUrl);
	if (urlSimilarity > 0.91) {
	console.log(`URL similarity of ${confSimpleUrl} and ${confOfYearSimpleUrl} is ${urlSimilarity}`);
	return confOfYear;
	}
	const similarity = stringSimilarity(confKey, confOfYearKey);
