[Tex/LaTex] Footnotes in table with savenotes

footnotestables

After considering options for getting my footnotes to work (Footnotes in tables?), I settled on the savenotes environment.

Sadly it seems to work randomly, based on the position in the table.
I have three footnotes and only the third works correctly, for the others I get the warning "name{Hfootnote.1} has been referenced but does not exist". When I insert the footnote#3 next to footnote#2 I get a warning for that as well.

Here is the full table, please tell me how to fix it:

\documentclass{article}%
\RequirePackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{footnote}
\usepackage[hang, flushmargin]{footmisc}
\usepackage{footnotebackref}

\begin{document}

\begin{savenotes}
\begin{table}
\begin{quote}
\caption{Kurzer Vergleich von Unit-Test und Integrationstest}
\label{tab:testcomparison}
\centering\small
\begin{tabular}{p{5cm} p{7cm}}
\emph{Unit-Test} &
\emph{Integrationstest} 
\\
\hline
Resultate hängen nur von Java Code ab& Resultate hängen auch von externen Systemen ab \\
Einfach zu schreiben und zu überprüfen&Setup des Integrationstests kann kompliziert sein\\
Eine einzelne Klasse/Einheit wird isoliert getestet&Eine oder mehrere Komponenten werden getestet\\
Alle Abhängigkeiten werden falls nötig gemocked&Es werden keine Mocks\footnote{Mocks sind Test-Doubles.} benutzt (oder nur Komponenten die in keinem Zusammenhang stehen werden gemocked)\\
Test überprüft nur die Implementierung des Codes&Test überprüft die Implementierung individueller Komponenten und deren Kopplungsverhalten bei gemeinsamer Nutzung\\
Ein Unit-Test benutzt nur JUnit/TestNG und ein Mocking-Framework&Ein Integrationstest kann wirkliche Container\footnote{Ein Container ist eine Software-Komponente eines Application Servers, die Objekte der gehosteten Applikation verwaltet.}, wirkliche Datenbanken und spezielle Integrationstest-Frameworks(z.B. Arquillian oder DbUnit) benutzen\\
Meistens von Entwicklern benutzt&Integrationstests sind auch nützlich für Qualitätsmanagement, DevOps\footnote{DevOps ist ein Softwareentwicklungsprozess der IT, Entwicklung und Qualitätsmanagement zusammenbringt.}, Help Desk\\
Ein fehlgeschlagener Unit-Test ist immer eine Regression (wenn die Anforderungen sich nicht geändert haben)&Ein fehlgeschlagener Integrationstest kann auch bedeuten, dass der Code noch korrekt ist, aber sich die Umgebung geändert hat\\
Unit-Tests sollten in einer Enterprise-Applikation ungefähr 5 Minuten dauern&Integrationstest können in einer Enterprise-Applikation Stunden dauern\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{quote}
\end{table}
\end{savenotes}

\end{document}

Hope you don't mind the German and thanks for your time.

EDIT: Replaced Code with full document. After compiling you will notice, that only the third footnote marker jumps to the note.

Finally found this answer: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/35669/97184

After looking at all the different workarounds and not getting savenotes to work, tablefootnote-package seems to be the only solution that is simple and works.

Too bad I get the footnote on the previous page, but I'll try fixing that too. Other answers still welcome!

You should use the threeparttable package, that's designed for that sort of things. In the following code, I added the caption package, to ensure a proper spacing between caption and table, booktabs and the makecell package, that allows for common formatting of column heads.

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{booktabs, caption, makecell}
\renewcommand\theadfont{\bfseries}
\usepackage{threeparttable}

\begin{document}

\begin{table}[! htbp]\centering \caption{Summary Statistics}
\begin{threeparttable}
\begin{tabular}{l c c c}
\toprule\midrule
\thead{Variable} & \thead{Mean}
 & \thead{Std. Dev.} & \thead{N}\\ \midrule
a & a & a\tnote{*} & a \\
\bottomrule\addlinespace[1ex]
\end{tabular}
\begin{tablenotes}\footnotesize
\item[*] Blahblah
\end{tablenotes}
\end{threeparttable}
\label{table2}
\end{table}

\end{document}

You can do that with threeparttable, which defines an eponymous environment, and a tablenotes environment. If you put the caption betweentable and threeparttable environments, the caption will have a width of textwidth; if you put it inside threeparttable, its width will be the actual width of the table:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[showframe]{geometry} 
\usepackage{booktabs, caption}
\captionsetup{labelfont=sf, width =\textwidth}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\usepackage[flushleft]{threeparttable}
