# Sample XML files for testing parsers and feeds, free and CC0 3 XML test files from 913 B to 5.8 KB. Direct URLs, a SHA-256 for each and CC0, so curl and CI can fetch them with no signup and no keys. The page: . XML parsers differ most on namespaces, and XML feeds are still everywhere. These three files cover plain records, namespaces and a real feed. `xml/people-10.xml` holds ten records of the shared people dataset as elements, one child element per column: the simplest shape for testing a mapping from XML to rows. `xml/with-namespaces.xml` has a default namespace, two prefixed namespaces, a namespaced attribute and `xml:lang`. Code that matches element names without their namespace, or ignores the default namespace, finds nothing or the wrong thing, which is the most common bug in hand-written XML handling. `xml/rss2-feed.xml` is an RSS 2.0 feed with ten items and fixed publication dates, for feed readers, podcast tools and aggregators. Like all markup on this site, the files are served with a sandbox Content-Security-Policy, so opening one in a browser runs nothing.
