What is the difference between isSameAs() and isEqualTo() in FEST?

What is the difference between the two methods isSameAs() and isEqualTo() ?

The documentation says:

Verifies that the actual value is equal to the given one.

and

Verifies that the actual value is the same as the given one.

Solution

  • I could give you answer just from my general understanding.

    isSameAs - checks if objects are same (e.g. checking if objects point to same reference)

    isEqualTo - checks if objects are equal (e.g. checking if objects are equal based on value)

    Hope it helps a bit
