Summary: Qualified values and XMLAssert.assertXpathEvaluatesTo

Initial Comment:
I try to use XMLAssert.assertXpathEvaluatesTo to check a node value (faulcode value of a SOAP Fault). The value is a qualified value.

XMLAssert.assertXpathEvaluatesTo does not work correctly with qualified value. In the namespace context, if you set a prefix different than the one in your XML document, you can't be able to have a successfull test, expect if you set the prefix provided by your XML document.


My XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><env:Body><env:Fault><faultcode>env:Server</faultcode><faultstring>marche pas</faultstring><detail/></env:Fault></env:Body></env:Envelope>


My namespace context:
final Map<String, String> namespaces = new HashMap<String, String>();
namespaces.put("env11", "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/");

        XMLUnit.setXpathNamespaceContext(new SimpleNamespaceContext(namespaces));


My assert:
XMLAssert.assertXpathEvaluatesTo("env11:Server", "//env11:Envelope/env11:Body/env11:Fault/faultcode", faultDocument);

Message:
Yes, right, perhaps can you add a new assert to check qualified values:
assertXpathEvaluatesTo(QName, String, Document) ? This assert expects that
the value is a qualified value, if not the assert fails. If the qualied
value is not the expected one, the assert fails.

Example:
XMLAssert.assertXpathEvaluatesTo(new
QName("http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/", "Server"),
"//env11:Envelope/env11:Body/env11:Fault/faultcode", faultDocument);

Message:
Hmm, env:Server is just the textual content of an element from a pure XML
point of view.  How should
XMLUnit know that env: inside some arbitrary text is supposed to be the
prefix attached to an XML namespace?
