The following test fails because because `seq1 == seq2` returns a (boolean) NumPy array whenever either seq is a NumPy array.
import unittest import numpy as np unittest.TestCase().assertSequenceEqual([1.,2.,3.], np.array([1.,2.,3.])) I expected `unittest` to rely only on features of a `collections.abc.Sequence`, which based on https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-sequence, I believe are satisfied by a NumPy array. Specifically, I see no requirement that a sequence implement __eq__ at all much less in any particular way. In short: a test named `assertSequenceEqual` should, I would think, work for any sequence and therefore (based on the available documentation) should not depend on the class-specific implementation of __eq__. Is that wrong?
