This method enables the following syntax:
This method enables the following syntax:
result should equal (7) ^
The left should equal (right)
syntax works by calling ==
on the left
value, passing in the right
value, on every type except arrays. If both left
and right are arrays, deep
will be invoked on both left
and right
before comparing them with ==. Thus, even though this expression
will yield false, because Array
's equals
method compares object identity:
Array(1, 2) == Array(1, 2) // yields false
The following expression will not result in a TestFailedException
, because ScalaTest will compare
the two arrays structurally, taking into consideration the equality of the array's contents:
Array(1, 2) should equal (Array(1, 2)) // succeeds (i.e., does not throw TestFailedException)
If you ever do want to verify that two arrays are actually the same object (have the same identity), you can use the
be theSameInstanceAs
syntax.
