Validate.Equals() is always true

Hi!

I have a strange thing.
we have such conditions:
bool isContaines = true;
bool actualResult = false;

When I'm using this code Validate.Equals(isContaines, actualResult); - validation is always successful

.
I used this validation as workaround Validate.IsTrue(actualResult.Equals(isContaines)); - this works fine.

Is it normal?

P.S. Ranorex 9.3.1

Hi,

I'm guessing you expecting that the Validation step will actually fail test? But that's not the purpose of this method! This method simply returns 'true' or 'false'. So if you want it to actually fail the test, you must add some steps

Something like this should do the trick:

Code: Select all

bool isContaines = true;
bool actualResult = false;
if (Validate.Equals(isContaines, actualResult))
{
    Report.Success("Success", "success msg");
}
else
{
    Report.Failure("Failure", "failure msg");
}
