All Implemented Interfaces:

ArgumentMatcher, org.easymock.ArgumentsMatcher

public class TypeMatcher

extends AbstractArgumentMatcher

An ArgumentMatcher that only compares the types of the two objects, not their actual values. This is useful for Throwable arguments, (since Throwables rarely implement a useful equals). This allows a check that the right type of exception was passed in (even if it doesn't check that the exception's message and other properties are correct).

Description copied from interface: ArgumentMatcher

Compares an expected argument value (provided when training the mock object), against the actual argument value. This method is only invoked if both arguments are non-null and not the same object (based on identity comparison, not equals()).

Parameters:

expected - The expected argument value

actual - The actual argument value

Returns:

true if the two objects can be considered the same, false otherwise.
