Release Notes

XMLUnit.NET 2.10.1 - /not released, yet/

XMLUnit.NET 2.10.0 - /Released 2024-08-08/

  • adjusted the NUnit 3.x constraints so they should work for NUnit 4.x as well. Issue #40.

  • add a new ElementSelectors.ByNameAndAllAttributes variant that filters attributes before deciding whether elements can be compared. Inspired by Issue #xmlunit/259

  • Nodes.GetMergedNestedText and Nodes.StripElementContentWhitespace had the same problem of not knowning about XmlWhitespace that caused Issue #38. And neither of the methods could deal with XmlSignificantWhitespace at all.

  • add XmlWhitespaceStrippedSource, XmlWhitespaceNormalizedSource, and XmlElementContentWhitespaceStrippedSource that only trim characters that are considered whitespace by the XML Specification from textual content. Also added new modifiers to DiffBuilder that make use of the new ISource types. Issue #39.

XMLUnit.NET 2.9.2 - /Released 2023-03-16/

  • 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. Issue #38

XMLUnit.NET 2.9.1 - /Released 2021-12-16/

  • improved comparison performance for documents with many siblings based on a suggestion by @gerpres made in Java Issue xmlunit/#236

  • added a new FullDescription method to Diff that provides a string-representation of all differences - not just the first one like ToString does. Based on Java PR xmlunit/#235 by @Boiarshinov

XMLUnit.NET 2.9.0 - /Released 2020-10-30/

  • ISource now extends IDisposable to allow releasing unmanaged resources used when building sources from files or URIs.

    This change is backwards incompatible if you are providing ISource implementations of your own. #33.

  • DefaultNodeMatcher with multiple ElementSelectors could fail to find the best matches as the order of ElementSelectors should select them. Issue similar to xmlunit/#197

XMLUnit.NET 2.8.0 - /Released 2020-05-12/

This version contains a backwards incompatible change to the IPlaceholderHandler interface that is part of the experimental placeholders module: The Evaluate method now receives a variable number of string arguments in addition to the textual content of the element/attribute. This allows placeholders like ${xmlunit.matchesRegex(some\s*regex)}.

XMLUnit.NET 2.7.2 - /Released 2020-03-08/

  • the XPath values for comparisons resulting in CHILD_LOOKUP differences could be wrong when NodeFilters were present. Issue #29

XMLUnit.NET 2.7.1 - /Released 2019-06-21/

  • add a new ${xmlunit.isNumber} placeholder Based on the Java PR xmlunit/#154 by @NathanAtClarity.

  • the XPath values of a comparison should not be affected by any NodeFilter being in effect. Issue similar to xmlunit/#156

XMLUnit.NET 2.7.0 - /Released 2019-04-13/

This release is identical to 2.7.0-beta-01 with only the version numbers changed.

XMLUnit.NET 2.7.0-beta-01 - /Released 2019-04-10/

This is the first release supporting .NET Standard 2.0. If you still want/need the assemblies targeting .NET Framework 3.5 they are still part of the nuget packages as well and you shouldn't see any differences when compared to XMLUnit.NET 2.6.0.

The NUnit 2.x constraints still only support the .NET Framework as NUnit 2.x itself doesn't support .NET Standard either.

  • The nuspec files now use license rather than the deprecated licenseUrl.

  • The core and placeholders as well as the NUnit 3.x constraints nuget packages now contain assemblies built for .NET Standard 2.0.

    Issue #21 based on Pull Request #28 by @shatl.

    As part of this the dependency of the NUnit 3.x constraints on NUnit has been bumped to 3.6.1 which was the first version supporting .NET Standard 2.0.

XMLUnit.NET 2.6.0 - /Released 2018-04-22/

  • add a new experimental module xmlunit-placeholders which aims to use ${xmlunit.FOO} expressions inside of the control document to allow for a DSL-like approach of defining more complex tests. This initial seed only supports ${xmlunit.ignore} which can be used to make XMLUnit ignore the element containing this text.

  • fixed the message when CompareConstraint or ValidationConstraints (both NUnit 2.x and 3.x) as well as EvaluateXPathConstraint or HasXPathConstraint (only the NUnit 3.x versions) pass but the assertion fails because the constraint itself was wrapped in a Not constraint.

  • the NUnit 3.x EvaluateXPathConstraint failed to resolve the nested constraint, leading to erroneous messages if the assertion failed. Issue #25

  • the XmlDocument instances used internally in Convert and Transformation now get their XmlResolver property set to null by default - which happens to be the default value of .NET 4.5.2 and later anyway. This is in accordance with the OWASP recommendations for XML eXternal Entity injection preventions.

    This may be a breaking change and you may need to provide an explicit XmlResolver instance of your own if you need to load external entities.

    Issue #27.

  • added a new ISource implementation ElementContentWhitespaceStrippedSource which is similar to WhitespaceStrippedSource but only affects text nodes that solely consist of whitespace and doesn't affect any other text nodes. Also added convenience IgnoreElementContentWhitespace methods to DiffBuilder and CompareConstraint. Issue similar to xmlunit/#119.

  • the configured NodeFilter is now applied before comparing XmlDocumentType nodes.

    This change breaks backwards compatibility as the old behavior was to ignore XmlDocumentType when counting the children of the XmlDocument node but not when actually comparing the XmlDocumentType. Prior to this change if one document had a document type declaration but the other didn't, a HAS_DOCTYPE_DECLARATION difference was detected, this will no longer be the case now. If you want to detect this difference, you need to use a more lenient NodeFilter than NodeFilters.Default (i.e. NodeFilters.AcceptAll) but then you will see an additional CHILD_NODELIST_LENGTH difference.

    Issue #26.

XMLUnit.NET 2.5.1 - /Released 2017-10-20/

  • elements that only differed in namespace prefix resulted in a false ELEMENT_TAG_NAME difference when compared. Issue #22

XMLUnit.NET 2.5.0 - /Released 2017-09-03/

  • CommentLessSource, DiffBuilder#IgnoreComments and CompareConstraint#IgnoreComments now all use XSLT version 2.0 stylesheets in order to strip comments. New constructors and methods have been added if you need a different version of XSLT (in particular if you need 1.0 which used to be the default up to XMLUnit 2.4.0). Issue similar to xmlunit/#99.

XMLUnit.NET 2.4.0 - /Released 2017-07-23/

  • made DefaultComparisonFormatter more subclass friendly. Issue similar to xmlunit/#93.

XMLUnit.NET 2.3.1 - /Released 2017-03-23/

  • provided xml doc files for the release version and inside the nuget package. user-guide/#11

XMLUnit.NET 2.3.0 - /Released 2016-11-12/

  • Validator and SchemaValidConstraint now accept using XmlSchema instances for the schema when validating instance documents. Issue similar to xmlunit/#89.

XMLUnit.NET 2.2.0 - /Released 2016-06-04/

  • Input.FromByteArray and Input.FromString now return ISources that can be used multiple times. Issue similar to xmlunit/#84.

XMLUnit.NET 2.1.1 - /Released 2016-04-09/

  • CompareConstraint and ValidationConstraint for NUnit2 threw NullReferenceExceptions when combined with another failing Constraint. Issue similar to xmlunit/#81.

XMLUnit.NET 2.1.0 - /Released 2016-03-26/

  • added CompareConstraint.WithNamespaceContext port of PR #54 by @cboehme.

  • added new implementations inside DifferenceEvaluators for common tasks like changing the outcome for specific differences or ignoring changes inside the XML prolog.

  • new HasXPath constraints that check for the existence of an XPath inside of a piece of XML or verify additional assertions on the XPath's stringified result. Port of corresponding matchers in XMLUnit for Java by @mariusneo.

  • DiffBuilder.WithComparisonFormatter now also fully applies to the Differences contained within the Diff. Issue xmlunit/#55

XMLUnit.NET 2.0.0 - /Released 2016-03-06/

  • implemented DiffBuilder.WithComparisonFormatter mentioned in user guide. Issue xmlunit/#51

XMLUnit.NET 2.0.0-alpha-04 - /Released 2016-02-06/

  • the unused SchemaURI property of Validator has been removed.
  • the mapping of IDifferenceEngine.NamespaceContext has been inverted from prefix -> URI to URI -> prefix in order to be consistent with the same concept in IXPathEngine.
  • Comparison now also contains the XPath of the parent of the compared nodes or attributes which is most useful in cases of missing nodes/attributes because the XPath on one side is null in these cases. Issue xmlunit/#48 ported from PR xmlunit/#50 by @eguib.

XMLUnit.NET 2.0.0-alpha-03 - /Released 2015-12-13/

  • fixed the nuget package name of the core library to now use XMLUnit.Core
  • switched core tests to use to NUnit 3.x and provided a new library to support NUnit 3.x constraints. #19 by @e-tobi
  • The XMLUnit.Constraints nuget package has been replaced with XMLUnit.NUnit2.Constraints and XMLUnit.NUnit3.Constraints
  • The XMLUnit.NUnit2.Constraints nuget package now depends on NUNit 2.6.4 - which it has been compiled against - rather than 2.5.10.
  • added new overloads to IXPathEngine
  • fixed the XPath context used by the ByXPath element selector so that "." now refers to the current element. Issue xmlunit/#39
  • ElementSelectors.ConditionalBuilder now stops at the first predicate returning true, even if the associated ElementSelector returns false. Issue xmlunit/#40

XMLUnit.NET 2.0.0-alpha-02 - /Released 2015-11-21/

This is the initial alpha release of XMLUnit.NET. We expect the API to change for the next release based on user feedback.
