This is a modification of XmlUnit for C# from xmlunit.sourceforge.net. I have updated it for use with NUnit 2.x (tested with NUnit 2.6, but should work with other versions as well. The master-net2.0 branch is still compatible with the .NET 2.0 Framework, but the master branch targets .NET 3.5.
The tests probably provide the best documentation for this (it's pretty simple). The documentation for the original (Java) project is probably useful, though the Java project is far ahead of the C# one.
- (Breaking) The XmlAssertion class has been replaced with AssertXml, as NUnit's Assertion class has been deprecated and removed.
- Deprecated .NET features have been replaced (.NET 3.5 only).
- (Breaking) A validating XML reader now must reference a schema to validate against (.NET 3.5 only). Note that validating readers are the default, and must be disabled if you don't want it.

AssertXml.IsValidXml(new StreamReader(pathToXml));
}
[Test]
public void AssertXmlIsEqual()
{
// Uses validating parser - must reference a schema
AssertXml.AreEqual(pathToXml, path2);
// Now the same thing without a validating parser
var diffConfig = new diffConfiguration(useValidatingParser: false);
var diff = xmlDiff(pathToXml, path2, diffConfig);
AssertXml.AreEqual(diff);
}
