Checking object equality in Jasmine

Question

Jasmine has built-in matchers toBe and toEqual. If I have an object like this:

function Money(amount, currency){
    this.amount = amou

If you're looking to compare partial objects, you might consider:

describe("jasmine.objectContaining", function() {
  var foo;

  beforeEach(function() {
    foo = {
      a: 1,
      b: 2,
      bar: "baz"
    };
  });

  it("matches objects with the expect key/value pairs", function() {
    expect(foo).toEqual(jasmine.objectContaining({
      bar: "baz"
    }));
  });
});
