NightOwl888 opened a new issue #306: URL: https://github.com/apache/lucenenet/issues/306
We recently discovered that the assertions provided by NUnit do not provide any support for primitive types and in those cases will default to `object` which causes boxing/unboxing when doing assertions. This can be a huge drain on performance when this operation is done in a tight loop. It is clear that end users will likely run into similar issues with testing that we did. While we have addressed the problem, we did so in 2 assertions types that are both internal. We need to create a public API for assertions that end users of the test framework can use. - Missing overloads need to be added to support all of the operations that NUnit does - Custom asserts that we created need to be expanded to include all primitive types - A logical way to make these asserts "native" in `LuceneTestCase` and all of its subclasses needs to be devised In Lucene, `LuceneTestCase` simply subclassed `Assert`. However, due to a difference in naming conventions between NUnit and JUnit, this would seem odd. For example, instead of `AssertEquals`, the NUnit team named their method `AreEqual`. While this isn't such a problem, it would be inconsistent with all of the other custom assertions in the test framework (i.e. `AssertAnalyzesTo`). In addition, API documentation should be provided for each of the assertions. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
