Description Todd Fast 2006-08-01 00:59:32 UTC 
According to bug 81467, the test driver is currently using string comparison to
compare runtime output with output.xml. This is fragile and should instead use a
proper XML diff to compare results. The XML project has code for doing XML
diffs, and this should be used for this feature. Contact Chris Webster and Ayub
Khan for information on doing XML diffs with XAM/XDM.
Comment 1 Todd Fast 2006-08-01 01:02:37 UTC 
Bug 81465 was fixed and closed for beta, but the correct fix using XML diff
needs to go into FCS. This bug is waived for beta.
Comment 2 Michael Frisino 2006-08-02 07:50:13 UTC 
I agree with this solution. 

But re: bug 81465 - is the current solution vulnerable to any known cases? That
is to say, do you know how to break the 81465 comparator today? It would help
for users and demo people to know what format edge cases to avoid. I will add
same comment in 81465.
Comment 3 wchui 2006-09-22 21:24:49 UTC 
Fixed.  Now using xdm diff and the issue bug 81465 mentioned is also resolved.
