Strengths (and weaknesses) of XSLT for QA

• Strength: XSLT is native to XML
  • Takes advantage of XML expertise
  • You may already be using it (e.g. for HTML or PDF production)
• Strength: very powerful (a little code can do a lot)
• Weakness: suited to handling what's marked up (not what isn't)
• Weakness: not your garden-variety XSLT application
  • Requires ingenuity
  • Rewards creativity
