Assertions

Asserts that two elements are equal using == equality.

The "expected" value (second argument) must have the same type or be a subtype of the "obtained" value (first argument). For example:

 assertEquals(Option(1), Some(1)) // OK
 assertEquals(Some(1), Option(1)) // Error: Option[Int] is not a subtype of Some[Int]

Use assertEquals[Any, Any](a, b) as an escape hatch to compare two values of different types. For example:

 val a: Either[List[String], Int] = Right(42)
 val b: Either[String, Int]       = Right(42)
 assertEquals[Any, Any](a, b) // OK
 assertEquals(a, b) // Error: Either[String, Int] is not a subtype of Either[List[String], Int]

Asserts that two doubles are equal to within a positive delta. If the expected value is infinity then the delta value is ignored. NaNs are considered equal: assertEquals(Double.NaN, Double.NaN, *) passes.

Asserts that two floats are equal to within a positive delta. If the expected value is infinity then the delta value is ignored. NaNs are considered equal: assertEquals(Float.NaN, Float.NaN, *) passes.
