Parsing The Xml File To Create Hyperlinks

1.I am trying to read an xml file between the tags 'sanity_results'( look at for the input http://pastebin.com/p9H8GQt4) and print the output 2.for any line or part of line that h

Solution 1:

Have a look at your error message:

AttributeError: 'file'object has no attribute 'find'

And then have a look at main(): you're feeding the result of open('results.xml', 'r') into getsanityresults. But open(...) returns a file object, whereas getsanityresults expects xmlfile to be a string.

You need to extract the contents of xmlfile and feed that inti getsanityresults.

To get the contents of a file, read [this bit of the python documentation]9http://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/inputoutput.html#methods-of-file-objects).

In particular, try:

xmlfile = open('results.xml', 'r')
contents = xmlfile.read() # <-- this is a stringtestresults = getsanityresults(contents) # <-- feed a string into getsanityresults# ... rest of code
