Subject:Feature Request: Option to test against every XSLT Author:Lee Humphries Date:28 Aug 2002 12:53 AM
After using SS for a while I've found that I'm frequently testing XSLT code by switching between the different XSLT processors and also by comparing the output from each processor.
A handy feature for me would be an option to get SS to run a given XSLT against every XSLT processor available and then have it present some table that highlighted any differences.

This is an interesting idea.
Not sure how the differences could be easily summarized, but you could at
least choose to inspect the detailed diffs between two results per time.

By table I was thinking of something like how many source control applications do a line-by-line comparison of two versions of the same file. Except in this case perhaps having tabs so that you can pick which two you want to see. Not that any tab control allows two selections open simultaneously, but you can't win'em all.
An alternate approach is to display a single version of the output with differences between the output of the various processors highlighted by different colours. But this would only really work for XML output.
