I would like to be able to count the number of TestCases that contain
the "execute=true" but not the ones that contain "execute=false".
With XPath-capable libraries, it should be enough to execute an XPath
query on the document. For example:
import libxml2dom
d = libxml2dom.parse(filename)
number_of_cases = d.xpath("count(//Testcase[@execute='true'])")
This applies the XPath count function to all Testcase elements in the
document having an execute attribute with a value of 'true', thus
returning the number of matching elements.

Hi All:
Thank you very much for all your valuable input. All the examples
provided are exactly what I need to get started.
Enjoy the long weekend (for those in North America).
Cheers
