stable_sort_ifex defines a known order of keys so that IFEX files can be reliably compared. It is a module but can also be run as a standalone script. The diff_ifex.py script will print the diff between two files, after normalizing the order of the content using the stable_sort_ifex module. It can also be used with an external diff program.

The diff_ifex.py script will print the diff between two files, after normalizing the order of the content using the stable_sort_ifex module.
In combination, these are useful tools for future regression testing.
