Object

We can make many assertions and verifications on objects by using the Class NativeValidationsBuilder through using the following methods:​

isEqualTo():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object is equal to the expected value.
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected value for the object under test.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).isEqualTo((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).isEqualTo((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

equals():​

  • This method overrides the default object method equals and is the same as calling isEqualTo(expectedValue).perform();
  • So we use this method to check that the actual object is equal to the expected value.
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected value for the object under test.
  • This method returns a boolean value true if passed and throws AssertionError if failed (return value can be safely ignored).
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).equals((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).equals((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

doesNotEqual():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object is not equal to the expected value.
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected value for the object under test.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).doesNotEqual((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).doesNotEqual((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

contains():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object contains the expected value.
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected value for the object under test.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).contains((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).contains((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

doesNotContain():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object does not contain the expected value.
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected value for the object under test.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).doesNotContain((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).doesNotContain((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

matchesRegex():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object matches the expected regular expression.
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected regular expression for the object under test.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).matchesRegex((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).matchesRegex((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

doesNotMatchRegex():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object does not match the expected regular expression.
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected regular expression for the object under test.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).doesNotMatchRegex((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).doesNotMatchRegex((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

equalsIgnoringCaseSensitivity():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object is equal to the expected value (ignoring case sensitivity).
  • Needed parameters: expectedValue - the test data / expected value for the object under test.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).equalsIgnoringCaseSensitivity((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).equalsIgnoringCaseSensitivity((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).doesNotEqualIgnoringCaseSensitivity((Object) expectedValue)).perform();
    }
}

isNull():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object is null.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test
    public void testValidations(){
        //make assertion
        Validations.assertThat().object((Object) actualObject).isNull().perform();
        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).isNull().perform();
    }
}

isNotNull():​

  • We use this method to check that the actual object is not null.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
import com.shaft.validation.Validations;
public class Testing {
    @Test

        //make verification
        Validations.verifyThat().object((Object) actualObject).isNotNull().perform();
    }
}

isTrue():​

    }
}
13. isFalse():​
  • We use this method to check that the actual object is false.
  • This method returns a ValidationsExecutor object to set your custom validation message (if needed) and then perform() your validation.
