I'm new to AssertJ and using it to unit-test my written code and was thinking how to assert a list.
Lets assume we have a list of Consumers Entities. each Entity has it own Phone, own ServiceProvider which has it own Name and EntityName.
Now we want to assert that each Entity from a repository gets the right data, so we want to test that each item on list has equal Phone.
ConsumerEntity savedConsumer1 = Consumer(phone, name, serviceProvider)
List<ConsumerEntity> consumerListFromRepository = repository.findAllByPhone(phone)
Now I want to test that the data given from Repository is correct,
I can use this:
assertThat(consumerListFromRepository)
.extracting(ConsumerEntity::getPhone())
.containsOnly(savedConsumer1.getPhone());
Or I can do this with forEach (java 8):
consumerListFromRepository.forEach(consumerEntity ->
assertThat(consumerEntity.getPhone()).isEqualTo(savedConsumer1.getPhone()));
1. Which one is faster/simple-r/readable? I will go for the forEach for less lines of code but less read-ability as well.
2. Is there any other way to do it 1liner like the foreach but with asserThat? so it will be readable and simple - and without the need to use EqualTo each
time? something like:
asserThat(list).forEach........
3. Which one is faster? Extracting or forEach?
Thanks!
I'm not sure that "faster" is a primary concern here. It's likely that any performance difference is immaterial; either the underlying implementations are ~equivalent in terms of non-functionals or - since the context here is a unit test - the consumerListFromRepository
is trivially small thereby limiting the scope for any material performance differences.
I think your main concerns here should be
Judging which of your two approaches best ticks this box is somewhat subjective but I think the following considerations are relevant:
forEach
construct is well understood and the isEqualTo
matcher is explicit and easily understood extracting
helper paired with the containsOnly
is less common that Java8's forEach
construct but this pairing reads logically and is easily understood So, IMHO both approaches are valid. If your code base consistently uses AssertJ then I'd suggest using the extracting
helper paired with the containsOnly
matcher for consistency. Otherwise, use whichever of them reads best to you :)
