In the tests of nrmllib we compare for equality two XML files with the function assert_xml_equal. Two files with the same attributes in different order should be considered equal. The current implementation checks the equality by using etree.tostring, which reorders the attribute. However such feature has been removed in new versions of lxml (now the original order of the attributes is preserved) so assert_xml_equal is no more suitable for its intended purpose. The solution is to use nrmllib.writers.tostring which does the right thing. |
