xml malformed recommendations

[Pablo Sagrera Garcia]

Hi Experts,

is there any general recommendation in order to avoid xml issues ? I'm getting a lot of xml malformed messages in my test cases. I use fixml tool + rebot but not always works 

Thanks in advance

I can only think in finding the root cause of why you are "getting a lot of xml malformed messages in my test cases".
Are they being interrupted?

Ugh

Would you mind sharing some more details? Runnable example would be really cool but if that is not possible could you explain, in details or steps, what you are doing and what entity complains that XML is invalid?

Hi Hélio,

The problem is that after use fixml tool and validate  the 'new' xml file is OK , rebot tool is marking the file as failed 

Example :

rebot output.xml 

[ ERROR ] Reading XML source 'output.xml' failed: Incompatible XML element 'arg'

attached 'fixed' output.xml

Thanks

One possible cause is that the library you are using is logging from threads other than the main thread. This can screw up the XML.

By logging, I mean outputting to sys.stdout instead of using the RF logging API.
