RE: [JBoss-dev] Truth of statements in assertTrue clauses
Don't the other Assert.* methods like Assert.assertEquals(a,b) format the message at all? I would expect this to show a message like a was not equal to b (and should have been). --jason > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:jboss- > [EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of David Jencks > Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 3:41 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [JBoss-dev] Truth of statements in assertTrue clauses > > I've been using the explanation of failure style, I hadn't really > considered the other.

Good, because its these statements that I'm looking at and thinking the tests are not written correctly.

Re: [JBoss-dev] Truth of statements in assertTrue clauses
I've been using the explanation of failure style, I hadn't really considered the other. I would like to switch. I've found writing the explanation of failure messages exceedingly confusing. david jencks On 2002.07.29 12:07:59 -0400 Scott M Stark wrote: > In the assertTrue(String message, boolean condition) form of the > junit assertion some people are using a message that reflects the > expected truth of the condition while others are using a message > that reflects why the AssertionFailedError is thrown.

[JBoss-dev] Truth of statements in assertTrue clauses
In the assertTrue(String message, boolean condition) form of the junit assertion some people are using a message that reflects the expected truth of the condition while others are using a message that reflects why the AssertionFailedError is thrown. We need to be consistent on this usage. I happen to prefer that when I look at the coded statement: assertTrue("true is true", true); the message is consistent with the condition. What is the general expectation? Scott Stark Chief Technology Officer JBoss Group, LLC --- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
