Class MultiLevelElementNameAndTextQualifier

java.lang.Object
org.custommonkey.xmlunit.examples.MultiLevelElementNameAndTextQualifier
All Implemented Interfaces:
ElementQualifier
public class MultiLevelElementNameAndTextQualifier extends Object implements ElementQualifier
Per popular request an interface implementation that uses element names and the text node containes in the n'th child node to compare elements.

This means ElementNameQualifier and MultiLevelElementNameQualifier(1) should lead to the same results.

Any attribute values are completely ignored. Only works on elements with exactly one child element at each level.

This class mostly exists as an example for custom ElementQualifiers.
