===================
[](https://travis-ci.org/richardasaurus/python-xmlunittest-better)
[](https://crate.io/packages/xmlunittestbetter/)

This is a spork of [https://github.com/Exirel/python-xmlunittest](https://github.com/Exirel/python-xmlunittest).
With wider lxml support and Python 2.7, 3.4 & 3.4 support.


Examples
======

- Extend xmlunittest.XmlTestCase
- Write your tests, using the function or method that generate XML document
- Use xmlunittest.XmlTestCase‘s assertion methods to validate
- Keep your test readable

Example:

```

from xmlunittest import XmlTestCase


class CustomTestCase(XmlTestCase):

def test_my_custom_test(self):
# In a real case, data come from a call to your function/method.
data = """<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<root xmlns:ns="uri">
<leaf id="1" active="on" />
<leaf id="2" active="on" />
<leaf id="3" active="off" />
</root>"""

# Everything starts with `assert_xml_document`
root = self.assert_xml_document(data)

# Check namespace
self.assert_xml_namespace(root, 'ns', 'uri')
# Check
self.assert_xpaths_unique_value(root, ('./leaf@id', ))
self.assert_xpath_values(root, './leaf@active', ('on', 'off'))
```

Running the tests
======
