Class XmlDocument

java.lang.Object

org.codice.ddf.itests.common.XmlDocument

public class XmlDocument
extends Object

Simpler helper class for creating document object models (DOM) searches. The purpose is to reduce the amount of duplicated code used in the test classes.

This class is not thread-safe. It not optimized-- it creates new factories and builders for every invocation. It is not suitable for use in production code.

This class does not catch errors. It passes errors up the call chain to provide developers with the most information possible when debugging test cases.

To format (pretty print) XML, use the ddf.util.XPathHelper or org.codice.ddf.platform.util.XMLUtils classes.
