>
> Current compareToExpected step shows several weaknesses:
> - name doesn't fit with all our verifyXXX steps
> - if reference file doesn't exist, it looks silently for it in a subfolder named "expected"
> - it doesn't fail if reference file doesn't exist at all but just creates it
> - it doesn't fail if an IO error occurs
> It should be deprecated (and removed in a future release, aliasing is here not possible as it's not only a name problem) and a new, stricter step named verifyContent should be added:
> <verifyContent referenceFile="someFile.xxx".../>
