Given an xml document like
<root>
<row>
<a>2</a>
<b>1</b>
<c>8</c>
</row>
<row>
<b>5</b>
<a>2</a>
<c>8</c>
</row>
<row>
<a>2</a>
<c>8</c>
<b>6</b>
</row>
</root>
Is there an easy way to assert that the XML document is sorted on element B in XMLUnit
Edit: I have an odd problem with a piece of software that I can not change where the value of the XML tags in any given node needs to be in a specific order. I'd like it for my test harness to enforce this set of rules before any other validation.
