      public static <T> AbstractIteratorAssert<?,T> then(Iterator<? extends T> actual)
      Deprecated.
      Creates a new instance of IteratorAssert.

      Breaking change in version 3.12.0: this method does not return anymore an IterableAssert but an IteratorAssert.
      In order to access assertions from IterableAssert, use AbstractIteratorAssert.toIterable().

      IteratorAssert instances have limited assertions because it does not consume iterator's elements.

      Examples: 

       Iterator<String> bestBasketBallPlayers = getBestBasketBallPlayers();

 then(bestBasketBallPlayers).hasNext() // Iterator assertion
                            .toIterable() // switch to Iterable assertions
                            .contains("Jordan", "Magic", "Lebron"); // Iterable assertion
      Type Parameters:
      T - the actual elements type
      Parameters:
      actual - the actual value.
      Returns:
      the created assertion object.

      Deprecated.
      Creates a new instance of FactoryBasedNavigableIterableAssert allowing to navigate to any Iterable element in order to perform assertions on it.

      Navigational methods provided:

      The available assertions after navigating to an element depend on the ELEMENT_ASSERT parameter of the given AssertFactory<ELEMENT, ELEMENT_ASSERT> (AssertJ can't figure it out because of Java type erasure).

      Example with String element assertions: 

       Iterable<String> hobbits = newHashSet("frodo", "sam", "pippin");

 // build an AssertFactory for StringAssert (much nicer with Java 8 lambdas)
 AssertFactory<String, StringAssert> stringAssertFactory = new AssertFactory<String, StringAssert>() {

      Creates a new instance of ClassBasedNavigableIterableAssert allowing to navigate to any Iterable element in order to perform assertions on it.

      Navigational methods provided:

    • thenThrownBy

      public static AbstractThrowableAssert<?,? extends Throwable> thenThrownBy(ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable shouldRaiseThrowable)
      Deprecated.
      Allows to capture and then assert on a Throwable more easily when used with Java 8 lambdas.

      Java 8 example : 

       @Test
  public void testException() {
    thenThrownBy(() -> { throw new Exception("boom!") }).isInstanceOf(Exception.class)
                                                        .hasMessageContaining("boom");
  }
      Java 7 example : 
       thenThrownBy(new ThrowingCallable() {

   @Override
   public Void call() throws Exception {
     throw new Exception("boom!");
   }

 }).isInstanceOf(Exception.class)
   .hasMessageContaining("boom");
      If the provided ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable does not raise an exception, an error is immediately thrown, in that case the test description provided with as(String, Object...) is not honored.
      To use a test description, use Assertions.catchThrowable(ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable) as shown below: 
       // assertion will fail but "display me" won't appear in the error
 thenThrownBy(() -> {}).as("display me")
                       .isInstanceOf(Exception.class);

 // assertion will fail AND "display me" will appear in the error
 Throwable thrown = catchThrowable(() -> {});
 then(thrown).as("display me")
             .isInstanceOf(Exception.class);
      Alternatively you can also use thenCode(ThrowingCallable) for the test description provided with as(String, Object...) to always be honored.
      Parameters:
      shouldRaiseThrowable - The ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable or lambda with the code that should raise the throwable.
      Returns:
      The captured exception or null if none was raised by the callable.

    • thenThrownBy

      public static AbstractThrowableAssert<?,? extends Throwable> thenThrownBy(ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable shouldRaiseThrowable, String description, Object... args)
      Deprecated.
      Allows to capture and then assert on a Throwable like thenThrownBy(ThrowingCallable) but this method let you set the assertion description the same way you do with as(String, Object...).

      Example: 

       @Test
  public void testException() {
    // if this assertion failed (but it doesn't), the error message would start with [Test explosive code]
    thenThrownBy(() -> { throw new IOException("boom!") }, "Test explosive code")
             .isInstanceOf(IOException.class)
             .hasMessageContaining("boom");
 }
      If the provided ThrowingCallable does not raise an exception, an error is immediately thrown.

      The test description provided is honored but not the one with as(String, Object...), example: 

       // assertion will fail but "display me" won't appear in the error message
 thenThrownBy(() -> {}).as("display me")
                       .isInstanceOf(Exception.class);

 // assertion will fail AND "display me" will appear in the error message
 thenThrownBy(() -> {}, "display me")
                        .isInstanceOf(Exception.class);
      Parameters:
      shouldRaiseThrowable - The ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable or lambda with the code that should raise the throwable.
      description - the new description to set.
      args - optional parameter if description is a format String.
      Returns:
      the created ThrowableAssert.
      Since:
      3.9.0

    • thenCode

      public AbstractThrowableAssert<?,? extends Throwable> thenCode(ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable shouldRaiseOrNotThrowable)
      Deprecated.
      Allows to capture and then assert on a Throwable more easily when used with Java 8 lambdas.

      Example : 

       ThrowingCallable callable = () -> {
   throw new Exception("boom!");
 };

 // assertion succeeds
 thenCode(callable).isInstanceOf(Exception.class)
                   .hasMessageContaining("boom");

 // assertion fails
 thenCode(callable).doesNotThrowAnyException();
      Contrary to thenThrownBy(ThrowingCallable) the test description provided with as(String, Object...) is always honored as shown below. 
       ThrowingCallable doNothing = () -> {
   // do nothing
 };

 // assertion fails and "display me" appears in the assertion error
 thenCode(doNothing).as("display me")
                    .isInstanceOf(Exception.class);

      This method was not named then because the java compiler reported it ambiguous when used directly with a lambda :(

      Parameters:
      shouldRaiseOrNotThrowable - The ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable or lambda with the code that should raise the throwable.
      Returns:
      The captured exception or null if none was raised by the callable.
      Since:
      3.7.0

    • then

      public static AbstractUriAssert<?> then(URI actual)
      Deprecated.
      Creates a new instance of UriAssert.
      Parameters:
      actual - the actual value.
      Returns:
      the created assertion object.

    • then

      public static AbstractUrlAssert<?> then(URL actual)
      Deprecated.
      Creates a new instance of UrlAssert.
      Parameters:
      actual - the actual value.
      Returns:
      the created assertion object.

    • then

      public static <T extends AssertDelegateTarget> T then(T assertion)
      Deprecated.
      Returns the given assertion. This method improves code readability by surrounding the given assertion with then.

      Consider for example the following MyButton and MyButtonAssert classes: 

       public class MyButton extends JButton {

   private boolean blinking;

   public boolean isBlinking() { return this.blinking; }

   public void setBlinking(boolean blink) { this.blinking = blink; }

 }

 private static class MyButtonAssert implements AssertDelegateTarget {

   private MyButton button;
   MyButtonAssert(MyButton button) { this.button = button; }

   void isBlinking() {
     // standard assertion from core Assertions.then
     then(button.isBlinking()).isTrue();
   }

   void isNotBlinking() {
     // standard assertion from core Assertions.then
     then(button.isBlinking()).isFalse();
   }
 }
      As MyButtonAssert implements AssertDelegateTarget, you can use then(buttonAssert).isBlinking(); instead of buttonAssert.isBlinking(); to have easier to read assertions: 
       @Test
 public void AssertDelegateTarget_example() {

   MyButton button = new MyButton();
   MyButtonAssert buttonAssert = new MyButtonAssert(button);

   // you can encapsulate MyButtonAssert assertions methods within then
   then(buttonAssert).isNotBlinking(); // same as : buttonAssert.isNotBlinking();

   button.setBlinking(true);

   then(buttonAssert).isBlinking(); // same as : buttonAssert.isBlinking();
 }
      Type Parameters:
      T - the generic type of the user-defined assert.
      Parameters:
      assertion - the assertion to return.
      Returns:
      the given assertion.

    • then

      public static <T> T then(AssertProvider<T> component)
      Deprecated.
      Delegates the creation of the Assert to the AssertProvider.assertThat() of the given component.

      Read the comments on AssertProvider for an example of its usage.

      Type Parameters:
      T - the AssertProvider wrapped type.
      Parameters:
      component - the component that creates its own assert
      Returns:
      the associated Assert of the given component

    • thenObject

      public static <T> AbstractObjectAssert<?,T> thenObject(T actual)
      Deprecated.
      Creates a new instance of ObjectAssert for any object.

      This overload is useful, when an overloaded method of then(...) takes precedence over the generic then(Object). Example:

      Cast necessary because then(List) "forgets" actual type: 

      then(new LinkedList<>(asList("abc"))).matches(list -> ((Deque<String>) list).getFirst().equals("abc"));
      No cast needed, but also no additional list assertions: 
      thenObject(new LinkedList<>(asList("abc"))).matches(list -> list.getFirst().equals("abc"));
      Type Parameters:
      T - the type of the actual value.
      Parameters:
      actual - the actual value.
      Returns:
      the created assertion object.
