ByNameAndAllAttributes Method

Elements with the same local name (and namespace URI - if any) and attribute values for all attributes can be compared.

Syntax

public static bool ByNameAndAllAttributes (System.Xml.XmlElement controlElement, System.Xml.XmlElement testElement)

Parameters

controlElement

testElement

Returns

Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.

Remarks

This ElementSelector doesn't know anything about a potentially configured attribute filter so may also compare attributes that are excluded from comparison by the filter. Use the ByNameAndAllAttributes(Predicate) passing in your attribute filter if this causes problems.

ByXPath Method

Selects two elements as matching if the child elements selected via XPath match using the given childSelector.

Syntax

public static ElementSelector ByXPath (string xpath, ElementSelector childSelector)

Parameters

xpath

XPath expression applied in the context of the elements to chose from that selects the children to compare.

childSelector

ElementSelector to apply to the selected children.

Returns

an ElementSelector

Remarks

The xpath expression should yield elements. Two elements match if a DefaultNodeMatcher applied to the selected children finds matching pairs for all children.

ByXPath Method

Selects two elements as matching if the child elements selected via XPath match using the given childSelector.

Syntax

public static ElementSelector ByXPath (string xpath, IDictionary<string, string> prefix2Uri, ElementSelector childSelector)

Parameters

xpath

XPath expression applied in the context of the elements to chose from that selects the children to compare.

prefix2Uri

provides prefix mapping for namespace prefixes used inside the xpath expression. Maps from prefix to namespace URI

childSelector

ElementSelector to apply to the selected children.

Returns

Parameters

controlElement

Or Method

Accepts two elements if at least one of the given ElementSelectors does.

Syntax

public static ElementSelector Or (params ElementSelector[] selectors)

Parameters

selectors

Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.

Returns

Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.

Remarks

There is an important difference between using ElementSelectors#Or to combine multiple ElementSelectors and using DefaultNodeMatcher's constructor with multiple ElementSelectors:

Consider ElementSelectors e1 and e2 and two control and test nodes each. Assume e1 would match the first control node to the second test node and vice versa if used alone, while e2 would match the nodes in order (the first control node to the first test and so on).

ElementSelectors#Or creates a combined ElementSelector that is willing to match the first control node to both of the test nodes - and the same for the second control node. Since nodes are compared in order when possible the result will be the same as running e2 alone.

DefaultNodeMatcher with two ElementSelectors will consult the ElementSelectors separately and only invoke e2 if there are any nodes not matched by e1 at all. In this case the result will be the same as running e1 alone.
