Is there any good tool for Mac for testing XML Xpath queries? I want to make sure I have the right Xpath.

Most XPath implementations come with a command-line driver as sample
code; you could use any of those...

I'm not sure whether there's anything which does the "colorized editor"
thing, updating as you change the path. Wouldn't be hard to add to any
of the editors which already color their search results, of course.

If you have Java, I believe the original xpathtester is still available from

Please look at "lantern":

- http://sourceforge.net/projects/lantern/ (download)

Lantern is context-node and namespace aware. A bit outdated, but useful.
