Package org.assertj.db.api

Class BDDAssertions

java.lang.Object
org.assertj.db.api.BDDAssertions
public final class BDDAssertions extends Object
Behavior Driven Development style entry point for all assertion methods.

The difference with the Assertions class is that the entry point methods are named then instead of assertThat.

The navigation methods are defined in navigation package.
The assertion methods are defined in assertions package.

Example with a ConnectionProvider and a Table with test on the content on the first row of the movie table that the title column contains "Alien" as text and the next column contains 1979 as a number : 

 
 ConnectionProvider connectionProvider = ConnectionProviderFactory.of("jdbc:h2:mem:test", "sa", "").create();
 Table table = new Table(connectionProvider, "movie");
 then(table)
     .row()
        .value("title")
            .isEqualTo("Alien")
        .returnToRow()
        .value()
            .isEqualTo(1979);

It is possible to chain assertion on a value : 

 
 then(table)
     .row()
         .value("title")
             .isText()
             .isEqualTo("Alien");

It is not necessary to use the returnToXxxx methods. The next example is equivalent to the first : 

 
 ConnectionProvider connectionProvider = ConnectionProviderFactory.of("jdbc:h2:mem:test", "sa", "").create();
 Table table = new Table(connectionProvider, "movie");
 then(table)
     .row()
        .value("title")
            .isEqualTo("Alien")
        .value()
            .isEqualTo(1979);

It is possible to do the same thing with column and the row : 

 
 then(table)
     .row()
        .value("title")
            .isEqualTo("Alien")
     .row()
        .value()
            .isEqualTo("The Village")
     .column("year")
         .value(1)
            .equalTo(2004);
