AssertContains on strings in jUnit

Question

Is there a nicer way to write in jUnit

String x = \"foo bar\";
Assert.assertTrue(x.contains(\"foo\"));

Answer 1

You can use assertj-fluent assertions. It has lot of capabilities to write assertions in more human readable - user friendly manner.

In your case, it would be

 String x = "foo bar";
 assertThat(x).contains("foo");

It is not only for the strings, it can be used to assert lists, collections etc.. in a friendlier way
