A few months ago I created a patch to fix the assert_select xml problem:
http://weblog.jamisbuck.org/2007/1/4/assert_xml_select
My patch is at:
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8173
Last month I tried to get it applied:
I got some positive feedback, but still not really any movement.
What I’m looking for now is some quick +1s.
I’ll be perfectly blunt. This patch is short, sweet, and fixes an extremely annoying problem. I don’t possibly see how it could negatively affect anyone (please suggest a counter-example if you have one!). The previous linkage should explain thoroughly why I believe it’s safe.
Let’s get this one approved.
