Why is this, do you think? OK, XML syntax is pretty standard, but
the semantics will have to be learned. At least with Ruby you can
add new methods which wrap behaviour, if you wish to simplify common
cases. Which aspects of the Ruby syntax present difficulties for
the newcomer? I could probably have told you a few years back, but
now I'm fairly used to it, and in the domain of testing, I cannot
consider this to be obvious. But it may be that commonly confusing
cases may be re-written to be clear.
