HighlightTest like Python?

Hi,
I want to write a testcase which checks the result of an Annotator, i.e. the applied highlighing.

I've found the Python test which does this: https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/blob/210e0ed138627926e10094bb9c76026319cec178/python/testSrc/com/jetbrains/python/PythonHighlightingTest.java

I also found the file which contains the reference highlighting:
https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/blob/210e0ed138627926e10094bb9c76026319cec178/python/testSrc/com/jetbrains/python/PythonHighlightingTest.java

Which part of the code removes the <info...> markers before the file is parsed?

I've found no way to remove them and the result (is of course) invalid code to the parser.

Thanks!
Wallaby

Ok, found my own answer.
The documentation is at http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/basics/testing_plugins/testing_highlighting.html .
If the highlighting file contains invalid attributes, e.g. foreground="#ff0000" instead of foreground="0xff0000" then content is parsed and will result in parsing errors.

Also, you need to specify either all colors or none, if you remove on you will get an NPE.
