TetsNG SoftAssert with Hamcrest matcher

问题

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?

回答1:

To the best of my knowledge, you cannot directly blend SoftAssert from TestNG with the hamcrest matcher assertions.

But you can make use of org.assertj.core.api.SoftAssertions within the hamcrest matcher library for trying to do soft assertions.

The javadocs for SoftAssertions has some samples.

For the sake of completeness, I am including the code snippet from the javadocs here.

 @Test
 public void host_dinner_party_where_nobody_dies() {
   Mansion mansion = new Mansion();
   mansion.hostPotentiallyMurderousDinnerParty();
   SoftAssertions softly = new SoftAssertions();
   softly.assertThat(mansion.guests()).as("Living Guests").isEqualTo(7);
   softly.assertThat(mansion.kitchen()).as("Kitchen").isEqualTo("clean");
   softly.assertThat(mansion.library()).as("Library").isEqualTo("clean");
   softly.assertThat(mansion.revolverAmmo()).as("Revolver Ammo").isEqualTo(6);
   softly.assertThat(mansion.candlestick()).as("Candlestick").isEqualTo("pristine");
   softly.assertThat(mansion.colonel()).as("Colonel").isEqualTo("well kempt");
   softly.assertThat(mansion.professor()).as("Professor").isEqualTo("well kempt");
   softly.assertAll();
 }

If you take a look at the SoftAssertions codebase, you would notice that the comments say that its been inspired by Cedric's blog on soft assertions.
