fun <T : Any> T.shouldBeEqualToIgnoringFields(other: T, vararg properties: KProperty<*>): Unit
Asserts that this is equal to other without using specific fields
Verifies that this instance is equal to other without using some specific fields. This is useful for matching on objects that contain unknown values, such as a database Entity that contains an ID (you don't know this ID, and it doesn't matter for you, for example)
Opposite of shouldNotBeEqualToIgnoringFields
Example:
data class Foo(val id: Int, val description: String)
val firstFoo = Foo(1, "Bar!")
val secondFoo = Foo(2, "Bar!")
firstFoo.shouldBeEqualToIgnoringFields(secondFoo, Foo::id) // Assertion passes
firstFoo shouldBe secondFoo // Assertion fails, `equals` is false!
Note: Throws IllegalArgumentException in case properties parameter is not provided.
