This module contains generic XML testing tools. See below for a list of other modules with functions relating to specific XML modules.

FUNCTIONS

is_xml_in_order ( GOT, EXPECTED [, TESTNAME ] )

This function compares GOT and EXPECTED, both of which are strings of XML. The comparison works only on the order of the tags, attributes are ignored.

Returns true or false, depending upon test success.

isnt_xml_in_order( GOT, MUST_NOT_BE [, TESTNAME ] )

This function is similar to is_xml(), except that it will fail if GOT and MUST_NOT_BE are identical.
