Method Detail

matchesSafely

public boolean matchesSafely(java.util.Collection<? extends E> item)

Description copied from class: TypeSafeMatcher

Subclasses should implement this. The item will already have been checked for the specific type and will never be null.

Specified by:

matchesSafely in class TypeSafeMatcher<java.util.Collection<? extends E>>

describeMismatchSafely

public void describeMismatchSafely(java.util.Collection<? extends E> item,
                                   Description mismatchDescription)

Description copied from class: TypeSafeMatcher

Subclasses should override this. The item will already have been checked for the specific type and will never be null.

Overrides:

describeTo

public void describeTo(Description description)

Description copied from interface: SelfDescribing

Generates a description of the object. The description may be part of a a description of a larger object of which this is just a component, so it should be worded appropriately.

Creates a matcher for Collections matching examined collections whose isEmpty method returns true.

For example:

assertThat(new ArrayList<String>(), is(empty()))

emptyCollectionOf

public static <E> Matcher<java.util.Collection<E>> emptyCollectionOf(java.lang.Class<E> type)
