I'm trying to come up to speed on XQuery by writing learning tests, so I
also want an API I can call from my tests, as in:
assertEquals(expectedResult, queryengine.evaluate(queryExpression,
xmlString))
An engine that supports such an API is both testable and usable
independent of any particular data source or server.
