Re:  How to do a diff of two HTML files with HTML outpu
The current stable release is XMLUnit 1.2, June 2008.

XMLUnit for Java provides two JUnit extension classes, XMLAssert and
XMLTestCase, and a set of supporting classes (e.g. Diff,
DetailedDiff,Transform,SimpleXpathEngine,Validator,NodeTest) that allow
assertions to be made about:

    * The differences between two pieces of XML
    * The outcome of transforming a piece of XML using XSLT
    * The evaluation of an XPath expression on a piece of XML
    * The validity of a piece of XML
    * Individual nodes in a piece of XML that are exposed by DOM Traversal

XMLUnit for Java can also treat HTML content (even badly-formed HTML) as valid
XML to allow these assertions to be made about the content of web pages too.
