Match partial objects in Chai assertions?

Question

I am looking for the best way to match the following:

expect([
    {
        C1: \'xxx\',
        C0: \'this causes it not to match.\'
    }
]).to.deep.incl         


        

Answer 1

Slightly updated version of #RobRaisch because for empty comparison giving error because '' not equal ""

let expected = {
            dateOfBirth: '',
            admissionDate: '',
            dischargeDate: '',
            incidentLocation: null
        };
        Object.keys(expected).forEach(function(key) {
            expect(actual[key]).to.equal(expected[key]);
        });
