public abstract class VerboseAssert

extends JFuncAssert

VerboseAssert allows for assertions to be displayed even if they passed. If you've ever tried printing your assertions that have passed, you'll quickly realize that all the messages are written to express a failure. In order to present the tests outcome more naturally, regardless of the outcome of an assert, you need at the heart of the problem a message to express success and another for failure. A good place inbetween is a description of what you're comparing, and showing the expected vs. actual. It is this classes aim to provide both of those things. Currently VerboseAssert doesn't cover the wide breadth of objects, or even the same naming convention (vassertEquals). I'm resisting filling it out further until I receive some feedback.
