Since I can't get the XPath from XmlAttribute or XmlNode parameter passed into the predicate, how can I determine the XPath of the element to filter? Shouldn't the XPath be passed in as a parameter? Thanks.
added NodeFilters#SatisfiesAll and SatifiesAny methods to make it easier to combine multiple node filters. added to simplify the use case of xmlunit/#249 when documents contained element content whitespace represented by System.Xml.XmlWhitespace the types and methods that are supposed to strip or normalize whitespace would fail.

XMLUnit.NET 2.9.2 Released
fixed some AssertJ tests that didn't work on Windows. Issue #252 and PR #253 by @Boiarshinov added overloads to ElementSelectors.byXPath that accept a XPathEngine argument. Issue #255 added Cyclone DX SBOMs to release artifacts
XMLUnit for Java 2.9.1 Released
The major change of XMLUnit for Java 2.9.0 is the addition of a new module xmlunit-jakarta-jaxb-impl that can be used in addition to xmlunit-core when you want to use the Jakarta XML Binding API in version 3. For details please see the user's guide. The full list of changes of XMLUnit for Java 2.9.0 is: added a new module xmlunit-jakarta-jaxb-impl that makes Input.fromJaxb use jakarta.xml.bind rather than javax.xml.bind.

XMLUnit for Java 2.8.3
I'm afraid this is due to the way DOM is implemented (in Java?). XMLUnit uses the DOM model when comparing XML files. This means your Java process contains two parsed tree models of the whole documents in memory at the same time - and DOM is famous for being memory intensive. At least you seem to be able to load both documents, so there probably isn't that much memory missing and you could get by with increasing your JVM's heap memory a bit when starting the process. There are alternative APIs for...
Hello, I am trying to compare 2 large xml files which contains around 2.4m+ lines (xml file size ~ 51 MB). This is the method I have created where I am sending xmlfilepath for 2 xmls.

Is there any limitation of xmlunit? do we have any solution for this type of issue? public static Iterable<difference> compareXmlFiles(String response1FilePath, String response2FilePath) throws IOException, SAXException {...
But do you know which elements are expected to hold numbers? If so, you can still use the DifferenceEvaluator approach I described. Otherwise - if you don't know which elements are to be considered numbers how should XMLUnit know? :-)

You are using ElementSelectors.byNameAndText which means: when looking at lists of elements, compare those which each other that have the same element name and the same nested text. This works fine for elements like <String>S013J6S7STH</String>. In your second example you want to influence which Map elements XMLUnit compares with each other. The Map elements have no nested text at all, so they all have the same nested text and you compare them in-order. I'm not really sure what identifies the Map...

XMLUnit 2.8.0 has just been released and allows the TransformerFactory to be set explicitly in DefaultComparisonFormatter.
Both releases are mostly bugfix releases. Unfortunately both are going to break backwards compatibility for some people.

XMLUnit for Java 2.8.0 and XMLUnit.NET 2.9.0 Released
You don't want to ignore the element at all, you want to ignore certain attributes on them. So AttributeFilter is what you want to use rather than NodeFilter.
Hi, I am facing the same issue. I am trying to compare actual and expected XML responses using Java. For that I am using DiffBuilder. I want to ignore few date-time attributes from root node while comparing the xmls. However when I pass the with NodeFilter(node -> !node.getNodename(). equals("Nodename") ) it ignores complete xml. Could you please let me know the work around for the issue? Thanks in advance.
I've opened https://github.com/xmlunit/xmlunit/issues/195 and will get to it sometime in the coming weeks. If there is anything else you'd need please open new issues. Thanks Stefan
Hi Stefan, I realize that my patch is not a long term solution to the issue I just did that to make sure that was the root cause of the issue. We are using the library to compare two xml files so we would need a mechanism to allow us to specify the transform factory in the DefaultComparisonFormatter. Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

Hi Jim I don't use OSGi myself and am not intimately familiar with it. I've tried to setup things in a way, that should allow all modules to be used as OSGi bundles, so supporting the environment is a goal. OTOH we do want to support people switching the TransformerFactory using JAXP mechanisms. It is unfortunate this seems to be incompatible with OSGi. Your patch as you describe it, would hard-code Saxon for everybody, which cannot be a goal at all. I think it is possible to pass a TransformerFactory...
To whom it may concern, We are attempting to use the xmlunit-core library methods in an OSGi application. At runtime, we ran into a situation where the TransformerFactory class was not being resolved. I have included below an explaination of a modification to the xml unit code that we used to address this issue. We are wondering if there is an existing mechanim to address OSGI loading? If not, is there any interest in developing a feature so that we do not have to maintain a separate library with...

I'm sorry I have overlooked this question so far. For both platforms XMLUnit's validator is just a thin layer on top of the platform's validation engine, so I'm not surprised you see a difference between .NET and Java. You might even see diffenrences between different version of each. It shouldn't be too difficult to add an optional Predicate<ValidationProblem> as a filter one can specify that could be used to suppress certain failures. Could you please open an enhancement request over at github...
These two releases contain an incompatible change to the (I)PlaceholderHandler interface, thus the new minor versions. The Evaluate method now receives a variable number of string arguments in addition to the textual content of the element/attribute.

For XMLUnit.NET only the placeholders package has changed, for Java in addition the assertj module is now supposed to be compatible with AssertJ 3.15+. Release Notes for XMLUnit for...

I'm sorry if I seem to be a bit slow on this but I believe I still don't undertstand what you actually mean by partial XML data validation. This is waht I'm guessing: You've got a document that describes your tests as a sparse XML document. You are not interested in parts of the server response that are not part of the sparse tree in your document. To achive this, you will need a NodeFilter and may need to combine it with something loke an ElementSelector to figure out which parts of the tree to...

I'm afraid this is something that is easier to do for humans than to implement in code. When you look at the serverResponseXML how do you know which parts you want to compare and which are not necessary? Is it as simple as "any element that's not in localTestXML is irrelevant" or could this hide errors of extra elements suddenly appearing in unexpected places?
Thanks Stefan for the response. Sorry, I'm just putting baby steps and messed up certain things. From serverResponseXML I might have some entrys I want to ignore during comparison and I might specify partial localTestXML which not necessarily should have all entrys from serverResponseXML (i.e. I want to validate with partial local XML(It can be partial XML or as complete as serverResponseXML) with some additional filters) What would be best way to achive it?
assuming https://sourceforge.net/p/xmlunit/discussion/73274/thread/b01a104e75/#6e65 was meant to go here: You really need to answer to yourself what it is that makes you know which entrys to compare to each other. Don't thnk in terms of XPaths, think in terms of your logical data model. And once you've understood what is important in your data model, then - and only then - start thinking about how this translates to XML structure. It is not unlikely that implementing a NodeFilter or ElementSelector...
maybe your question was supposed to be added to https://sourceforge.net/p/xmlunit/discussion/73274/thread/5481136c30/ instead?
I don't know the XML you are trying to comapre. The difference you mention says there are different numbers of elements nested in Map between control and test. I have no idea how this relates to XPath. Most probably I'm missing some context that you have :-)
checkForSimilar and checkForIdentical are mutually exclusive and the las one you set wins. Unless you you provide a DifferenceEvaluator that downgrades node order differences to IDENTICAL you will never get better than SIMILAR with swapped nodes. So if you are really aiming for an identical result you will need to override the DifferenceEvaluator in use as well. The ElementSelector's job is to make XMLUnit match the nodes with each other that you consider to be "the same nodes", it does not make...

I don't think there is an easy way to do what you need without changing XMLUnit. You might gain a bit of performance by using a single XPathFactory and a single XPath instance, though. Something that might work is tracking what the difference engine is doing via a ComparisonListener and building a map of XPath to Node while the DOM is traversed. Adding the parent nodes in addition to the parent XPath would require some surgery to DOMDifferenceEngine but could probably be done without breaking the...
In our project, we are comparing two XMLs and are selectively updating the control XML based on this comparison. In certain cases the Control/Test node is null (as fetched from the Comparison.Detail object). Manipulating / updating the Control/Test XML in such a case requires us to compute the Parent Node using some other library that requires the XPath String from the getParentXPath() method. This computation of the Parent Node node is turning out to be expensive as we need to do this for every...
Hi Stefan, We had another question for you. Currently, we can only access the XPath of the ParentNode of a given target node (computed from the Comparison.Detail object). Is there a way to get a reference to the ParentNode directly from the Comparison.Detail object? Or atleast in a future version of XMLUnit? Have opened a new Discussion Topic for this here. Please advise.

Hi Stefan, We tested using 2.6.3 and it worked fine. This time the XPaths were preserved despite using NodeFilters in the Difference Evaluator. Thank you very much for such an expedited response and fix! This has been very helpful.
The release fixes a bug in a corner-case and adds a new isNumber placeholder. The full list of changes: add a new ${xmlunit.isNumber} placeholder Issue #153 via PR #154 by @NathanAtClarity. the XPath values of a comparison should not be affected by any NodeFilter being in effect. Issue #156
XMLUnit for Java 2.6.3 and XMLUnit.NET 2.7.1 Released
Do you think you could give the 2.6.3-SNAPSHOT version a try that I've published to XMUnit's snapshot repository? This should result in the XPaths you expect.
Let me first try to illustrate what I think you are trying to do You've got two docs like <foo> <bar> <baz>xyzzy</baz> </bar> <quux id="fred"/> </foo> <foo> <bar some-attr="I don't care about"> <baz>xyzzy</baz> </bar> <quux id="carl"/> </foo> and you are not interested in differences in foo or bar but only for the pairs of nodes that are selected by /foo/bar/baz and /foo/quux. Is this correct? One way to do it, and I think this is what you describe as your current attempt, is to use XMLUnit's XPath...
Ah, this is an interesting twist I didn't think about - I didn't really get you've been talking about using a NodeFilter. I've created https://github.com/xmlunit/xmlunit/issues/156 and tweaked the test I added with https://github.com/xmlunit/xmlunit/commit/3cf072e13fd288da3ef5a1a83b86d5be1c05a612 - this will be fixed with the next release, probably within the next two weeks.
The problem we are facing is that, after we filter out the node Parent with id = 0, when we compute the XPath of the nodes from the Diff object, we get XPath values that are different from the original XPath values (as per the unfiltered document object). The filtering Nodes option in XMLUnit is removing all the filtered nodes from the document object before starting to evaluate. So, when we access the test and control nodes in the diff objects from the difference iterator - the test and control...
Hello, it's me again. I'm using the C# version of the framework. I've come with another question. I know there's a WithNodeFilter in the DiffBuilder class that allows to define whether to compare nodes or not . But the XmlNode doesn't provide any property nor method to get the node XPath. Basically I need a special node filter that selects the nodes to compare by XPath. There could be more than just one XPath for these cases. I've created a work around by selecting the nodes by XPath and then using...
Perfect, I've implemented the custom DifferenceEvaluator and ComparisonFormatter, that solves my question. Thanks for your time!
I'm not entirely sure I understand the issue you are describing. I think you expect the parent XPath to be /grandparent[1]/parent[2] while you get /grandparent[1]/parent[1]. Have you checked you are actually looking at child with id 2 and not 1? Without any ElementSelector XMLUnit is going to match siblings in order. This means you are comparing control <parent id="0"> to test <parent id="1">. With https://github.com/xmlunit/xmlunit/commit/b0519685c0bbab843f63ddcba88861b16037e32b I've added a unit...
DifferenceEvaluator is the thing that decides whether a difference that has been found is important or not. You could use it to silence the difference about the number of children of Child. DifferenceEvaluator is a delegate, so any .NET method/function that matches the delegate's signature is an implementation and can be used. If you only want to suppress certain ComparisonTypestake a look at DifferenceEvaluators.DowngradeDifferencesToEqual. See also https://github.com/xmlunit/user-guide/wiki/DifferenceEvaluator...
