* KiwiXmlAssert is a simple wrapper around XMLUnit's XmlAssert which logs all differences. It also provides some convenience methods to compare XML without any boilerplate code. * LoggingComparisonListener is an XMLUnit ComparisonListener that logs differences found by XmlAssert. * Both of these classes are marked Beta in this first iteration * Additionally, added InMemoryAppender and InMemoryAppenderExtension, which provide test utilities for testing Logback messages. They are only in the test sources for now, but I documented them fully because I anticipate we might want to add them as full test utilities at some point. And if not, then at least they are documented for internal use within this library. Closes #442

This issue originates from the discussion Should we add a helper to log all differences when using XmlAssert in XmlUnit?. Also see the gist which contains sample code.
By default, XmlAssert stops comparing when it finds the first difference, and only reports that difference. So, if an XML comparison has multiple differences, you will only see the first one and won't know about any others until you've fixed the first one, then re-run the test, and then continue until all other comparison failures are fixed.
This issue aims to add a very simple utility that sits on top of
XmlAssertto provide a simple way to compare all differences and log them as they occur. Initially, mark this utility as beta.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
