#50: Automatically diff actual and expected output in deftest-html -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: anonymous | Owner: sakhmechet Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: 0.1 Component: weblocks | Version: pre-0.1 Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Currently when unit tests that are defined with deftest-html macro fail, it's very hard to tell the difference between actual and expected HTML, especially if the output is long. It's usually necessary to invoke ediff- buffers in Emacs (or some other diff utility).
Automatically diffing actual and expected output and presenting the diff as a result of a failed test would significantly ease debugging. This could be done with CL-HTML-DIFF or CL-DIFFLIB library.

Suggested by Chaitanya:
Maybe the HTML strings should be converted to LHTML [1], and then we create an equality function like lhtml-equal-p to check for equality rather than simply equal?
