Geoff,
Just wanted to bring two things to your attention, first, there is
a bug in xmlFile [0] that I would appreciate your help with. I tried
to reproduce it and failed... maybe you have more luck with it? In the
worse case, please change the way the XML is shifted from memory to
disk in order to have a better understanding of which part of the XML
is the one that's being incorrectly set.
The second thing is that I just created a unit-test for the
xmlFile plugin, which can be run by following these steps:
* [other] Download moth VM
* [other] ssh moth@moth (password: moth)
* [moth] cd /var/www/w3af/
* [moth] svn up
* [other] cd ~/w3af/trunk/
* [other] nosetests --doctest-result-variable=_test_res_
--rednose --with-doctest --doctest-tests

List,
Just wanted to let you know that there have been some major
changes to the XML output file that w3af generates via it's
output.xmlFile plugin. Given that this file is used by other tools to
import w3af's result, Javier throught it would be a good idea for me
to send this email :) If you want to see what's going on, and exchange
some ideas with Geoff Low who's making all these changes, just browse
here [0].
