Ben Kietzman commented on ARROW-7090:
-------------------------------------
I think they are since the assertion failure message will now include a
description of the metadata. If further functionality is required we can open a
new JIRA
> [C++] AssertFieldEqual (and friends) doesn't show metadata on failure
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-7090
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7090
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
> Assignee: Christian Cordova
> Priority: Major
>
> If two fields only differ by metadata the error message isn't very
> informative:
> {code}
> ../src/arrow/testing/gtest_util.cc:147: Failure
> Failed
> left field: ints: int8 not null
> right field: ints: int8 not null
> {code}
> Perhaps {{DataType::ToString}}, {{Field::ToString}} and {{Schema::ToString}}
> could get an optional flag to display metadata?
