[ xmlunit-Bugs-1860681 ] DifferenceEngine.compareNodeList

Summary: DifferenceEngine.compareNodeList

Initial Comment:
Hello,

it seems to me as if there is a bug in the non-deprecated version of the method DifferenceEngine.compareNodeList(). To illustrate what I mean, I have generated a small example for you. Let's say, we have the following test respectively control structure:


===[ testDoc ]================================

<books>
  <book>
    <title>Kabale und Liebe</title>
  </book>
  <book>
    <title>Schuld und Suehne</title>
  </book>
</books>



===[ controlDoc ]=============================

<books>
  <book>
    <title>Schuld und Suehne</title>
  </book>
</books>



Now, we want to compare these structures via XMLUnit. To do so, we generate a DetailedDiff and use a MultiLevelElementNameAndTextQualifier for a correct Node matching:


Diff diff = new Diff(controlDoc, testDoc);
diff.overrideElementQualifier(new MultiLevelElementNameAndTextQualifier(2));
DetailedDiff dd = new DetailedDiff(diff); 
Iterator i = dd.getAllDifferences().iterator();   
while (i.hasNext())
  System.err.println((Difference) i.next());


The result of the comparison are the following error messages (the structure of the messages are always "comparing <ctrl_node> to <test_node>" with their respective XPaths):

Expected number of child nodes '1' but was '2' - comparing <books...> at /books[1] to <books...> at /books[1]
Expected sequence of child nodes '0' but was '1' - comparing <book...> at /books[1]/book[1] to <book...> at /books[1]/book[2]
Expected presence of child node 'null' but was 'book' - comparing  at /books[1]/book[1] to <book...> at /books[1]/book[2]


The first and the second message are OK. XMLUnit compared the node "Schuld und Suehne" of the control structure (/books[1]/book[1]) to "Schuld und Suehne" of the test structure (/books[1]/book[2]) and recognized, that the sequence of nodes is different.
Now the problem arises: Since there are no more nodes in the control structure, but one node left in the test structure, the DifferenceEngine throws a "CHILD_NODE_NOT_FOUND" message for this node. The problem is, that the XpathNodeTracker for test and control structure are not updated in the source code, therefore they return the wrong XPath for the unmatched node "Kabale and Liebe" - it says it is "/books[1]/book[2]", but in reality it is "/books[1]/book[1]"... In this case (a node in the test structure has no counterpart in the control structure or the other way around), the XpathNodeTracker always return the XPaths to the last node matched in test respectively control structure...

I have attached a proposal of how this problem may be solved. Therefore you would have to change the DifferenceEngine as well as the XpathNodeTracker. I have marked up the lines within the source code with the key word "CODE_CHANGE", so it should be easy for you to understand what I mean. If you realize it that way, the result for the example given above would be:

Expected number of child nodes '1' but was '2' - comparing <books...> at /books[1] to <books...> at /books[1]
Expected sequence of child nodes '0' but was '1' - comparing <book...> at /books[1]/book[1] to <book...> at /books[1]/book[2]
Expected presence of child node 'null' but was 'book' - comparing  at  to <book...> at /books[1]/book[1]


Why is it that important, that you fix this bug? Well, if you want to react on the "CHILD_NODE_NOT_FOUND" event in a DifferenceListener, then you will need the exact XPath for the node that has no counterpart. At the moment, the wrong XPath is returned. Besides that, the error message in its current form is confusing...

I have used

JUnit 3.8.1
Xerces 2.8.1
XMLUnit 1.1


Hope this helps,

Joerg

Hi Jörg,

I've turned your test into a testcase and committed a disabled version of
it (stating my expectations of what the XPaths should be) to svn:
http://xmlunit.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xmlunit?view=rev&revision=236

Later I'm going to review your changes and we'll see whether they also
address the reverse case.

It would help tremendously if you could provide your changes as patches
(what "svn diff" would give you in a checked out copy) instead of full
files in the future.

Thanks for the report

Summary: docs with different URI variable names should be similar

Initial Comment:
Consider the following control document

<abc:a xmlns:abc='abc'><b/></abc:a>

and the following two test documents

<a xmlns='abc'><b/></a>

<xyz:a xmlns:xyz='abc'><b/></xyz:a>

although they are not identical, they should be similar because the only difference is the URI variable name. the URI variable name is not data but only a hint to the parser on how to abbreviate the URI value, which is data and which is always 'abc'. the problem is that the diff tool reports these both as differences as follows:

[not identical] Expected namespace prefix 'abc' but was 'null' - comparing <abc:a...> at /a[1] to <a...> at /a[1]

[different] Expected namespace URI 'null' but was 'abc' - comparing <b...> at /a[1]/b[1] to <b...> at /a[1]/b[1]

See the attached example.

Oops, you are right. When I change the test to be as follows, it succeeds.
My bad.

String control = "<abc:a xmlns:abc=\"abc\"><abc:b/></abc:a>";
String testAnonymous = "<a xmlns=\"abc\"><b/></a>";
String testNamed = "<xyz:a xmlns:xyz=\"abc\"><xyz:b/></xyz:a>";

Hmm, in your control document the "b" element belongs to the default
namespace, which is not "abc".  So your first test document has a different
namespace URI on it, not only a different prefix.

If you look at the messages you see that it says "not identical" when it
complains about the different prefixes (what you call URI variable names),
which would still make the documents similar.  It is the different URI that
makes the two documents different.

Seems as if XMLUnit was right.
