Martin, the exact information you need are:
1. this is what I did:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import unittest
import xmlrunner
class Foo(unittest.TestCase):
def testFoo(self):
self.assertTrue(False, ']]>')
unittest.main(testRunner=xmlrunner.XMLTestRunner(output='test-reports'))
2. this is what happened:
arturcz@szczaw:/tmp$ ./cdata.py
Running tests...

3. this is what should have happened instead:
arturcz@szczaw:/tmp$ ./cdata.py
Running tests...
----------------------------------------------------------------------

and file test-reports/TEST-Foo-${timestamp}.xml is created with following
content:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<testsuite errors="0" failures="1" name="Foo-20140223203423" tests="1"

<testcase classname="Foo" name="testFoo" time="0.000">

</testcase>
<system-out>
<![CDATA[]]> </system-out>
<system-err>
<![CDATA[]]> </system-err>
</testsuite>
however, on the level of minidom.py module, there is an exact test provided in
attached repository.
PS. I removed the patch by purpose - it's wrong and someone could be misleaded
by it. The correct solution I propose is in the attached repository.
