NUnit Nested Collection Comparison

问题

Is there something similar to CollectionAssert.AreEquivalent() that works with nested collections?

The following code...

CollectionAssert.AreEquivalent ( 
    new Dictionary<int, Dictionary<int, string>>
    {
        { 1, new Dictionary < int, string > { { 10, "foo" }, { 11, "bar" }, { 12, "spam" } } },
        { 2, new Dictionary < int, string > { { 20, "eggs" }, { 21, "eels" } } },
        { 3, new Dictionary < int, string > { { 30, "hovercraft" } } }
    },
    new Dictionary<int, Dictionary<int, string>>
    {
        { 1, new Dictionary < int, string > { { 10, "foo" }, { 11, "bar" }, { 12, "spam" } } },
        { 2, new Dictionary < int, string > { { 20, "eggs" }, { 21, "eels" } } },
        { 3, new Dictionary < int, string > { { 30, "hovercraft" } } }
    } );

throws this exception...

Expected: equivalent to
    < [1, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]],
    [2, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]],
    [3, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]] >
But was:
    < [1, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]],
    [2, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]],
    [3, System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2[System.Int32,System.String]] >

The following assert passes:

CollectionAssert.AreEquivalent (
    new Dictionary < int, string > { { 10, "foo" }, { 11, "bar" }, { 12, "spam" } },
    new Dictionary < int, string > { { 10, "foo" }, { 11, "bar" }, { 12, "spam" } } );

If I make changes to the expected collection, the assert throws an exception with the entire content of both collections in the message:

Expected: equivalent to < [10, foo], [11, bar], [12, spam] >
But was:  < [10, foo], [11, bar], [12, eggs] >

I'm using NUnit 2.4.7.0.

回答1:

An old question, but somebody just posted a link to it on nunit-discuss...

The failure is because the version of NUnit used did not support equality comparisons between two dictionaries and fell back on object comparison. Recent releases will not have this problem.

You would need to write your own. However, if it were me I would try to write my Asserts in a different way so that if there was a difference in the two lists it was more obvious why/what was wrong.
