hamcrest

After upgrading to Java 8. I now have compile errors of the following kind: The method with(Matcher<Object>) is ambiguous for the type new Expectations(){} It is caused by this method call: import org.jmock.Expectations; public class Ambiguous { public static void main(String[] args) { Expectations expectations = new Expectations(); expectations.with(org.hamcrest.Matchers.instanceOf(Integer.class)); } } It seems like with is returned from instanceOf() is ambiguous from what with() expects, or vice versa. Is there a way to fix this? There is some easy ways to help the compiler. assign the

I get an NoClassDefFoundError for org.hamcrest.Matchers, when i run my Test as OSGi PlugIn test, but when i run it as plain JUnit test everthing works as expected. I am using the OSGi version of PowerMock and have all neccessary dependencies in my launch config. What i am doing wrong? It seems like the Testrunner doesnt see the class, for some reason. Edit: I created a reduced sample project and figured out that the Problem only appear when i use @PrepareForTest(XXX.class) in my class declaration. java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/hamcrest/Matchers at eu.gemtec.commons.util.assertion.Assert

Is there a way in Hamcrest to compare a number within a number range? I am looking for something like this: assertThat(50L, is(between(12L, 1658L))); An alternative to Jeff's solution is to use both : assertThat(50L, is(both(greaterThan(12L)).and(lessThan(1658L)))); I think that's quite readable. You also get a good error message in case the check failed: Expected: is (a value greater than <50L> and a value less than <1658L>) got: <50L> I don't believe between is part of the core hamcrest matchers, but you could do something like this: assertThat(number, allOf(greaterThan(min),lessThan(max)));

I want to use a Hamcrest matcher inside a TestNG test and with a soft assert specifically. How can I do this? I know that I can use Hamcrest's assertions inside a test like: assertThat(actual, containsInAnyOrder(expected)); But I can't understand how can I use TestNG soft assert method like this one: SoftAssert softAssert = new SoftAssert(); together with a Hamcrest matcher. Because I can't invoke the Hamcrest's assertThat on TestNG's softAssert like softAssert.assertThat(...) So, what is the correct way to use a Hamcrest matcher together with TestNG? To the best of my knowledge, you cannot
