Constructor Detail

BaseTestCase

public BaseTestCase(String name)

Create an instance

Parameters:

name - The name of the test

Method Detail

notImplemented

public void notImplemented()

Convenience method to signal that this test hasn't been finished yet. This will print the name of the test to System.out.

assertCollectionsEqual

public void assertCollectionsEqual(Collection a,
                                   Collection b)

Assert that the two collections are the same irrespective of order.

Parameters:

a - The first collection

b - The second collection

assertSame

public static void assertSame(String description,
                              Object a,
                              Object b)

Assert that the two objects are the same. Junit has a method like this however it does not display what the two objects are. This method will display the toString() representations of the two objects in the case that the assertion fails.

Parameters:

description - The failure message to use if the two objects are not the same.

a - The first object to compare.

b - The second object to compare.

assertSame

public static void assertSame(Object a,
                              Object b)

Assert that the two objects are the same. Junit has a method like this however it does not display what the two objects are. This method will display the toString() representations of the two objects in the case that the assertion fails.

Parameters:

a - The first object to compare.

b - The second object to compare.

assertFalse

public static void assertFalse(String description,
                               boolean condition)

Assert that the specified condition is false. Older versions of junit have assertTrue() but not assertFalse so we add it here to be sure that it is present.

Parameters:

description - The failure message to be used if the condition is not false.

condition - The value to check.

assertFalse

public static void assertFalse(boolean condition)

Assert that the specified condition is false. Older versions of junit have assertTrue() but not assertFalse so we add it here to be sure that it is present.

Parameters:

condition - The value to check.

assertInstanceOf

public void assertInstanceOf(String label,
                             Object object,
                             Class clazz)

Assert that the specified object is an instance of this class

Parameters:

label - A description of the test

object - The object to test

clazz - The class

assertInstanceOf

public void assertInstanceOf(Object object,
                             Class clazz)

Assert that the specified object is an instance of this class

Parameters:

object - The object to test

clazz - The class
