Parameters

  • notExpected
    Type: System.Collections.ICollection
    The first collection to compare. This is the collection that the unit test does not expect to match actual.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
AssertFailedException

Remarks

Two collections are equal if they have the same elements in the same order and quantity. Elements are equal if their values are equal, not if they refer to the same object. The values of elements are compared using Equals by default.
