Description
The IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations property specifies whether TestComplete will ignore namespace declarations when comparing XML documents with the Compare method of the XMLCheckpoint object. For instance, if the property is True, TestComplete will consider the following nodes as equal (the ignored parts are marked with blue):
XML
<myElement xmlns:ns1="http://www.mycompany.com/tmpl/ns1">Some value</myElement>
<myElement>Some value</myElement>
Note that TestComplete will only ignore namespace declarations. Other attributes will not be ignored.
Declaration
XMLCheckpointOptionsObj.IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations
| Read-Write Property | Boolean |
| XMLCheckpointOptionsObj | An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to an XMLCheckpointOptions object | |||
Applies To
The property is applied to the following object:
Property Value
True, if TestComplete ignores namespace declarations during comparison, and False otherwise.
Remarks
The XMLCheckpointOptions object provides access to a copy of the element’s data. Changes made to the comparison settings via the IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations property will not be stored in the XMLCheckpoint element and will not be displayed in the XMLCheckpointOptions Element editor.
Example
The following example demonstrates how you can obtain the XMLCheckpointOtions object, set its IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations property value to True and compare XMLCheckpoint with the XML document.
JavaScript, JScript
{
var XMLCheckpoint, XMLOptions, XMLDoc;
// Obtains the XMLCheckpoint object.
XMLCheckpoint = XML.MyXMLCheckpoint;
// Obtains the XMLCheckpointOptions object.
XMLOptions = XMLCheckpoint.Options;
// Enables the IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations XML checkpoint option.
XMLOptions.IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations = true;
// Specifies the XML document path.
XMLDoc = "D:\\Work Folder\\XMLFile.xml";
// Compares MyXMLCheckpoint with the XML document.
XMLCheckpoint.Compare(XMLDoc)
}
Python
def IgnoreNamespaceDeclarationsDemo():
# Obtains the XMLCheckpoint object.
XMLCheckpoint = XML.MyXMLCheckpoint
# Obtains the XMLCheckpointOptions object.
XMLOptions = XMLCheckpoint.Options
# Enables the IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations XML checkpoint option.
XMLOptions.IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations = True
# Specifies the XML document path.
XMLDoc = "D:\\Work Folder\\XMLFile.xml";
# Compares MyXMLCheckpoint with the XML document.
XMLCheckpoint.Compare(XMLDoc)VBScript
Dim XMLCheckpoint, XMLOptions, XMLDoc
' Obtains the XMLCheckpoint object.
Set XMLCheckpoint = XML.MyXMLCheckpoint
' Obtains the XMLCheckpointOptions object.
Set XMLOptions = XMLCheckpoint.Options
' Enables the IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations XML checkpoint option.
XMLOptions.IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations = True
' Specifies the XML document path.
XMLDoc = "D:\Work Folder\XMLFile.xml"
' Compares MyXMLCheckpoint with the XML document.
XMLCheckpoint.Compare(XMLDoc)
End Sub
DelphiScript
var XMLCheckpoint, XMLOptions, XMLDoc;
begin
// Obtains the XMLCheckpoint object.
XMLCheckpoint := XML.MyXMLCheckpoint;
// Obtains the XMLCheckpointOptions object.
XMLOptions := XMLCheckpoint.Options;
// Enables the IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations XML checkpoint option.
XMLOptions.IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations := True;
// Specifies the XML document path.
XMLDoc: = 'D:\Work Folder\XMLFile.xml';
// Compares MyXMLCheckpoint with the XML document.
XMLCheckpoint.Compare(XMLDoc);
end;
C++Script, C#Script
{
var XMLCheckpoint, XMLOptions, XMLDoc;
// Obtains the XMLCheckpoint object.
XMLCheckpoint = XML["MyXMLCheckpoint"];
// Obtains the XMLCheckpointOptions object.
XMLOptions = XMLCheckpoint["Options"];
// Enables the IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations XML checkpoint option.
XMLOptions["IgnoreNamespaceDeclarations"] = true;
// Specifies the XML document path.
XMLDoc = "D:\\Work Folder\\XMLFile.xml";
// Compares MyXMLCheckpoint with the XML document.
XMLCheckpoint["Compare"](XMLDoc)
