JUnit Assert with BigDecimal

Question

I want to use assert between 2 two decimal, I use this:

BigDecimal bd1 = new BigDecimal (1000);
BigDecimal bd2 = new BigDecimal (1000);
org.junit.Assert.assertSa         


        

Answer 1

assertSamechecks if both objects are the same instance. assertEqualschecks if the numbers are equal in value and scale, that means i.e. 1000 is not equal to 1000.00. If you want to compare only the numeric value, you should use compareTo() method from BigDecimal.

For example:

BigDecimal bd1 = new BigDecimal (1000.00);
BigDecimal bd2 = new BigDecimal (1000);
org.junit.Assert.assertTrue(bd1.compareTo(bd2) == 0);
