.NET Dictionaries have same keys and values, but aren't “equal”

Question

This test fails:

using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;        

[TestMethod()]
        public void dictEqualTest() {
            IDictionary<         


        

Answer 1

The NUnit class CollectionAssert has an AreEquivalent method which accepts IEnumerable as parameters, so in that case it's as simple as

CollectionAssert.AreEquivalent(dict, dictClone);

because Dictionary implements IEnumerable.
