Add Java DSL examples in reference guide

[Ernesto-Maserati-CH]

I would drop support for XML test cases. If someone wants XML they can built a Citrus addon for that.

My guess is that there are very few Citrus users who choos XML test scripts.

When I look into the documentation to me it is "polluted" with XML examples, but I am interested into Java examples.

I doubt that XML is not wanted in the community. Integration testing is very often done by non-developers such as testers that do not have any Java background. This is what we constantly experience from questions and workshops with customers.

However I see your point that some Java DSL examples are missing in the documentation. This is a result from having XML as first and only way of writing tests in Citrus for years.

I allowed myself to rename the issue to "adding more Java DSL examples to the reference guide"

Thank you!

Maybe it would be possible to add language bindings to Citrus framework like Selenium has. I am not sure if that would work for Citrus however, I didn't think this through.

As a programmer I never would choose to write the test script in XML format. People who ae not familiar with programming should not lay their hands on test automation in my opinion.
