I've a XML as below

And, following XPATH I tried to ignore the order of the elements but still it is not working, can someone help me out here? I referred the discussion here https://github.com/xmlunit/xmlunit/issues/123
diff = DiffBuilder
.compare(control)
.withTest(test)
.checkForSimilar().checkForIdentical() //ignore the order of 'elements` but check they are identical
.normalizeWhitespace()
.ignoreComments()
.ignoreWhitespace()
//.ignoreElementContentWhitespace()
.withNodeMatcher(new DefaultNodeMatcher(ElementSelectors.conditionalBuilder()
.whenElementIsNamed("Attributes").thenUse(ElementSelectors.byXPath("./Map/entry[@key]", ElementSelectors.byNameAndText))
.elseUse(ElementSelectors.byName)
.build()))
.build();
I assume you wish to match entry elements inside of Map element, and you wish to match them them by their key attribute, thus ignoring the order?
If so, I suggest you to write your NodeMatcher like this:
