find first occurrence of attribute value grouped by element

2002-09-23 08:23:13
Hi,

This is my first posting to this list site. I have tried to search the
archives
and other sites to help with my problem, but have not found anything 
which addresses it specifically.  Please excuse my newbieness.


Problem:

Determine the first occurrence of a particular attribute value grouped by
element.


Example data:

testdata.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!-- simplified test data example 1-->
<root>
<testdata Unit_id="000001">
 <test id="test1" passed='F' timestamp="2002-09-01 12:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test2" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-01 13:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test1" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-02 11:00:00"></test>
</testdata>
<testdata Unit_id="000002">
 <test id="test1" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-01 10:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test2" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-01 13:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test3" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-02 11:00:00"></test>
</testdata>
<testdata Unit_id="000003">
 <test id="test1" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-03 10:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test3" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-04 14:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test2" passed='F' timestamp="2002-09-02 11:00:00"></test>
</testdata>
</root>


Desired output:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------
Test     Total Attempts   Total Pass  Total Fail   Pass on First Attempt
First Run Ratio
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------
test 1        4              3           1                   2
66.7%
test 2        4              2           2                   1
25%
test 3        2              2           0                   2
100%


My XSLT attempt at producing the listed output:

testdata.xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:key name="keyTest" match="test" use="@id" />
<xsl:key name="keyPassed" match="test[(_at_)passed='T']" use="@id" />
<xsl:key name="keyFailed" match="test[(_at_)passed='F']" use="@id" />

<!--  The key that follows must be incorrect...  :(   -->
<xsl:key name="keyFRP" match="test[(_at_)passed='T' and
not(preceding-sibling::*[(_at_)passed='F'])]"  use="@id" />

<xsl:template match="/">
        <html>
         <head>
          <title>Summary Report</title>
         </head>
         <body>
          <table border="1">
           <tr>
            <th>Test</th>
            <th>Total Attempts</th>
            <th>Total Pass</th>
            <th>Total Fail</th>
            <th>Pass on First Attempt</th>
            <th>First Run Ratio</th>
           </tr>
           <testdata>
            <xsl:call-template name="summary_list" />
           </testdata>  
          </table>                      
        </body>
   </html>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="//testdata//test[generate-id(.) =
generate-id(key('keyTest', @id))]"  name="summary_list">      
 <xsl:for-each select = "//testdata//test[generate-id(.) =
generate-id(key('keyTest', @id))]" >
    <!--<xsl:variable name="theTS" select="@id" />-->
    <xsl:variable name="firstUnit" select="../@Unit_id" /> 
  <tr>

   <!-- Display the Test Name!  -->
   <td align="center"><b><xsl:value-of select = "@id" /></b></td>
                                        
   <!-- Count all Tests!  -->
   <td align="center"><xsl:value-of select = "count(key('keyTest',@id))"
/></td>
                                        
   <!-- Count the Passes!  -->
   <td align="center"><xsl:value-of select = "count(key('keyPassed',@id))"
/></td>      
         
   <!-- Count the Fails!  -->
   <td align="center"><xsl:value-of select = "count(key('keyFailed',@id))"
/></td>      

   <!-- Try to Count the first pass! --> 
   <td align="center"><xsl:value-of select = "count(key('keyFRP',@id))"
/></td>  

   <!-- Calculate First Run Ratio --> 
   <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="count(key('keyFRP',@id))">
     <td align="right">
      <xsl:value-of  select = "format-number(count(key('keyFRP',@id)) div
count(key('keyTest',@id)),'###.###%')" />
     </td> 
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
     <td align="right"><xsl:value-of  select = "'0%'" /></td> 
    </xsl:otherwise>
   </xsl:choose>
 
  </tr>
 </xsl:for-each>                
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

This XSLT file seemed to work for the first data example, but 
the second example listed below failed to generate the proper results.

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!-- simplified test data example 2 -->
<root>
<testdata Unit_id="000001">
 <test id="test1" passed='F' timestamp="2002-09-01 12:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test2" passed='F' timestamp="2002-09-01 13:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test1" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-02 11:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test2" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-02 14:00:00"></test>
</testdata>
<testdata Unit_id="000002">
 <test id="test1" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-01 10:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test2" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-01 13:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test3" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-02 11:00:00"></test>
</testdata>
<testdata Unit_id="000003">
 <test id="test1" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-03 10:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test3" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-04 14:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test2" passed='F' timestamp="2002-09-02 11:00:00"></test>
 <test id="test4" passed='T' timestamp="2002-09-07 11:00:00"></test>
</testdata>
</root>


It did seem to work for the first data set, but it failed to work 
correctly for the second data set! 

I was thinking that if I counted the passes for a test for a given unit_id 
where a fail had not occurred, that this would give the desired result. 

I know that the key that I have created for the first pass occurrence
is not correct.  The 'test4' is not counted as a first run pass for some
reason.  I am not sure what the proper key should be. 

I had not used the timestamp data because I am assuming that a fail will 
not occur after a pass of a particular test, and that a test would not 
be taken after a pass had occurred.


What would the proper approach be to solve this problem?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
