Hi

I am looking for a way to merge the contents of two xml results file that are generated as a result of CppUnit test execution.

I have used CPPUNIT_NS::XmlOutputter to generate these 2 results files. Is there a way of directly merging these two files using CppUnit framework classes without actually writing the code to parse the two files from scratch? I found that in CppUnit fwk., there is a way of writing data from XmlOutputter to an xml file, but did not find a way of reading from an xml file to a CppUnit compatible class like the XmlOutputter.

A typical CppUnit xml results file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding='utf-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<TestRun>
  <FailedTests>
    <FailedTest id="1">
      <Name>InviteConsTest::inviteConsProcessTxAllValid</Name>
      <FailureType>Assertion</FailureType>
      <Location>
        <File>inviteConsTest.cpp</File>
        <Line>111</Line>
      </Location>
      <Message>equality assertion failed
- Expected: 3
- Actual  : 2
</Message>
    </FailedTest>
    <FailedTest id="6">

    </Test>
    <Test id="5">

    </Test>
