It is difficult to understand test failures when comparing XML files.
Currently error message shows the beginning of each XML string and output
looks something like this:
{{{
AssertionError: '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>\n<xliff
version=\'1.2\'\n xmlns=\' [truncated]... != '<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="utf-8"?>\n<xliff version=\'1.2\' xmlns=\'urn:oasi [truncated]...
}}}
It would be very nice to have output similar to assertHTMLEqual, with
markup differences highlighted like this:
{{{
AssertionError: <b>
Blue
</b>sky != <b>
Blue
</b>dye
<b>
Blue
- </b>sky
+ </b>dye
}}}
