Hi,
Does anyone know why assert_false is not inlcuded in Test:Unit, but for
e.g. assertFalse( ) is a method in JUnit?

The same reason there’s no assert_true? It’s redundant, IMO.
assert truth
assert !truth
assert (not truth)
etc.

Yet Ruby has both ‘if’ and ‘unless’ keywords.
I think it wuld be nice if the inverted version of the Assertions
methods were named ‘deny’, e.g. deny_nil vs. assert_not_nil.

Hi aidy,
Have a look at the source of /1.8/test/unit/assertions.rb and search for the text: “Example
Custom Assertion”.

refute(test, msg = nil)
Fails if test is a true value
works for many asserts: refute_equal, refute_match, etc.
‘deny’ is close. Ruby uses the word ‘refute’.
refute(test, msg = nil) click to toggle source
Fails if test is a true value
