notes:
- Use the C(--check) and C(--diff) options when testing your expressions.
- The diff output is automatically pretty-printed, so may not reflect the actual file content, only the file structure.
- This module does not handle complicated xpath expressions, so limit xpath selectors to simple expressions.
- Beware that in case your XML elements are namespaced, you need to use the C(namespaces) parameter, see the examples.
- Namespaces prefix should be used for all children of an element where namespace is defined, unless another namespace is defined for them.
