  - json
```
public static JsonUnitRequestMatchers json()
```
    Creates JsonUnitResultMatchers to be used for JSON assertions.
  - node
```
public ME node(String newPath)
```
    Creates a matcher object that only compares given node. The path is denoted by JSON path, for example.
    this.mockMvc.perform(get("/sample").accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)).andExpect(json().node("root.test[0]").isEqualTo("1"));
    
    Parameters:
    
    newPath -
    
    Returns:
    
    object comparing only node given by path.
  - ignoring
```
public ME ignoring(String ignorePlaceholder)
```
    Sets the placeholder that can be used to ignore values. The default value is ${json-unit.ignore}
  - withTolerance
```
public ME withTolerance(double tolerance)
```
    Sets the tolerance for floating number comparison. If set to null, requires exact match of the values. For example, if set to 0.01, ignores all differences lower than 0.01, so 1 and 0.9999 are considered equal.
  - withTolerance
```
public ME withTolerance(BigDecimal tolerance)
```
    Sets the tolerance for floating number comparison. If set to null, requires exact match of the values. For example, if set to 0.01, ignores all differences lower than 0.01, so 1 and 0.9999 are considered equal.
  - withDifferenceListener
```
public ME withDifferenceListener(net.javacrumbs.jsonunit.core.listener.DifferenceListener differenceListener)
```
  - when
```
public ME when(net.javacrumbs.jsonunit.core.Option firstOption,
               net.javacrumbs.jsonunit.core.Option... otherOptions)
```
    Sets options changing comparison behavior. For more details see Option
    
    See Also:
    
    Option
  - isEqualTo
```
public MATCHER isEqualTo(Object expected)
```
    Compares JSON for equality. The expected object is converted to JSON before comparison. Ignores order of sibling nodes and whitespaces.
    Please note that if you pass a String, it's parsed as JSON which can lead to an unexpected behavior. If you pass in "1" it is parsed as a JSON containing integer 1. If you compare it with a string it fails due to a different type. If you want to pass in real string you have to quote it "\"1\"" or use isStringEqualTo(String).
    If the string parameter is not a valid JSON, it is quoted automatically.
    
    Parameters:
    
    expected -
    
    Returns:
    
    this object.
    
    See Also:
    
    isStringEqualTo(String)
  - isStringEqualTo
```
public MATCHER isStringEqualTo(String expected)
```
    Fails if the selected JSON is not a String or is not present or the value is not equal to expected value.
  - isNotEqualTo
```
public MATCHER isNotEqualTo(Object expected)
```
    Fails if compared documents are equal. The expected object is converted to JSON before comparison. Ignores order of sibling nodes and whitespaces.
  - isAbsent
```
public MATCHER isAbsent()
```
    Fails if the node exists.
  - isPresent
```
public MATCHER isPresent()
```
    Fails if the node is missing.
  - isArray
```
public MATCHER isArray()
```
    Fails if the selected JSON is not an Array or is not present.
  - isObject
```
public MATCHER isObject()
```
    Fails if the selected JSON is not an Object or is not present.
  - isString
```
public MATCHER isString()
```
    Fails if the selected JSON is not a String or is not present.
  - isNull
```
public MATCHER isNull()
```
    Fails if selected JSON is not null.
  - isNotNull
```
public MATCHER isNotNull()
```
    Fails if selected JSON is null.
  - matches
```
public MATCHER matches(org.hamcrest.Matcher<?> matcher)
```
    Matches the node using Hamcrest matcher.
    
    Numbers are mapped to BigDecimal
    
    Arrays are mapped to a Collection
    
    Objects are mapped to a map so you can use json(Part)Equals or a Map matcher
    Parameters:
    
    matcher -
    
    Returns:
  - isTrue
```
public MATCHER isTrue()
```
    Fails if selected JSON is not true.
  - isFalse
```
public MATCHER isFalse()
```
    Fails if selected JSON is not false.
