      • matches

        public boolean matches​(java.lang.Object actual)
        Description copied from class: ArgumentMatcher
        Returns whether this matcher accepts the given argument.

        The method should never assert if the argument doesn't match. It should only return false.

        Specified by:
        matches in interface org.hamcrest.Matcher<java.lang.Object>
        Specified by:
        matches in class ArgumentMatcher<java.lang.Object>
        Parameters:
        actual - the argument
        Returns:
        whether this matcher accepts the given argument.
      • describeTo

        public void describeTo​(org.hamcrest.Description description)
        Description copied from class: ArgumentMatcher
        By default this method decamelizes matchers name to promote meaningful names for matchers.

        For example StringWithStrongLanguage matcher will generate 'String with strong language' description in case of failure.

        You might want to override this method to provide more specific description of the matcher (useful when verification failures are reported).

        Specified by:
        describeTo in interface org.hamcrest.SelfDescribing
        Overrides:
        describeTo in class ArgumentMatcher<java.lang.Object>
        Parameters:
        description - the description to which the matcher description is appended.
