Class AssertDataObjects

java.lang.Object

org.opendaylight.mdsal.binding.testutils.AssertDataObjects

public final class AssertDataObjects
extends Object

Assertion utilities for YANG DataObjects.

This compares two DataObjects by creating a textual representation of them, and comparing them. If they are not equals, then the thrown ComparisonFailure provides for a very highly readable comparison due to a syntax which immediately makes the difference obvious.

The syntax used happens to be valid Xtend code, and as such could be directly copy/pasted into an *.xtend source file of an expected object definition. This is optional though; this utility can very well be used with any object, not necessarily created by Xtend source code.

This also works for any Java object that is not a DataObject, like the AssertBeans which this is based upon.

Method Detail

assertEqualBeans

public static void assertEqualBeans(Object expected,
                                    Object actual)
                             throws org.junit.ComparisonFailure

Assert that an actual YANG DataObject (DataContainer) is equals to an expected one.

The argument types are intentionally of type Object instead of YANG DataContainer or DataObject. This is important so that this can be directly used on e.g. a List or Map etc. of DataObjects.

Parameters:

expected - the expected object

actual - the actual object to check against expected

Throws:

org.junit.ComparisonFailure
