Is it possible to skip validation column names in dbunit

Question

Is it possible to skip validation of columns in DBUnit?

I prefer to use FlatXmlDataSet because it is easier to maintain. But for comparing the result I have to use XmlDataSet which has always all columns behind the table tag.

The Assertion method assertEqualsIgnoreCols might be a solution because it allows me to specify columns to ignore but there are to many columns and I do not want to add them all manually. :-(

Take a look at Ignoring some columns in comparison, you can also take a look at How to exclude some table columns at runtime?

First Link provided the solution. A little bit anoying that I have to loop through all tables on my own but thats better than duplicating the column definition. Thank you – EhmKah a.k.a. Michael Krauße Sep 26 '12 at 14:46
