RE: Unit testing xslt?

From: Robert Leftwich [mailto:robert(_at_)leftwich(_dot_)info]
I was wondering if anyone is using unit tests and/or 
test-first design when 
developing xslt? I'd appreciate any comments on its 
effectiveness and what 
tools you are using (XSLTunit for example?).

I haven't used XSLTUnit, but on the other hand, your posting made me aware of 
its existence.  (Thanks!)

I have done similar things by hand, namely apply a stylesheet to the output 
that contains statements like:

        <xsl:if test="[assertion]">
                <test:bad message="blah blah blah" />
        </xsl:if>

And then do a doc.getElementsByTagName() to the output DOM to catch all of the 
failed assertions.
