XMLUnit - Ignoring 'id' attribute in comparison

I am currently working with XMLUnit and I am wondering if there is way to conf开发者_如何学Cigure it to ignore only the id attribute of the tags I want to compare.

Thanks in advance for your help.


The solution is quite simple. You can configure your DifferenceEngine to handle ATTR_VALUE differences. Write custom difference listener class which implements DifferenceListener:

class IgnoreIDsDifferenceListener implements DifferenceListener {
    private static final int[] IGNORE_VALUES = new int[] {
            DifferenceConstants.ATTR_VALUE.getId(),
    };

    private boolean isIgnoredDifference(Difference difference) {
        int differenceId = difference.getId();
        for (int i=0; i < IGNORE_VALUES.length; ++i) {
            if (differenceId == IGNORE_VALUES[i]) {
                return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }

    public int differenceFound(Difference difference) {
        if (isIgnoredDifference(difference)) {
            return RETURN_IGNORE_DIFFERENCE_NODES_IDENTICAL;
        } else {
            return RETURN_ACCEPT_DIFFERENCE;
        }
    }

    public void skippedComparison(Node control, Node test) {
    }
}

The required thing here is to check whether the attribute name is "id". Standard Java DOM functionality could help. But I prefer to do this by the means of regular expressions:

String controlNode = difference.getControlNodeDetail().getNode().toString();
controlNode .matches("^id=\".*\"")

P.S. See also: http://xmlunit.sourceforge.net/api/org/custommonkey/xmlunit/Difference.html


I am gonna try to implement my own DifferenceListener to handle this need (see this post). Gonna post the result soon. It seems to work, gonna post the implementation tomorrow.
