mvpa2.testing.assert_string_equal

mvpa2.testing.assert_string_equal(actual, desired)

If the given strings are equal, assert_string_equal does nothing. If they are not equal, an AssertionError is raised, and the diff between the strings is shown.

Parameters :

actual : str

The string to test for equality against the expected string.

desired : str

The expected string.

Examples

>>> np.testing.assert_string_equal('abc', 'abc')
>>> np.testing.assert_string_equal('abc', 'abcd')
