The process for deleting test files is too accident prone. Users in the past have lost large amounts of data by accidentally pressing the delete test key sequence.
I would suggest for the next update, when tests are deleted, they can be deleted from the software interface and moved to a secure file elsewhere on the pi; creating an archive of every test that has been saved to the device (i.e. pi/Documents/TestsArchive). Due to the small nature of the test files, hundreds of thousands of tests would be able to be backed up without filling the storage of the device. These files could be retrieved manually and would be protected by not allowing access via the DARLING software (other than initially writing each test to the file).
Archives could be created when the user goes through the process to delete the test files on the device. A new folder can be created in the Secure Archive Folder with the current date and all test data that would be deleted gets moved there rather than being deleted.
