PHPunit | assertNotEquals() Function
The assertNotEquals() function is a builtin function in PHPUnit and is used to assert the actual obtained value to be not-equals to expected value. This assertion will return true in the case if the expected value is not-equals to actual value else returns false. In case of true the asserted test case got passed else test case got failed.
Syntax:
assertNotEquals( mixed $expected, mixed $actual, string $message = '' )
Parameters: This function accepts three parameters as shown in the above syntax. The parameters are described below:
- $expected: This parameter is of any type which represent the expected data.
- $actual: This parameter is of any type which represent the actual data.
- $message: This parameter takes string value. When the testcase got failed this string message got displayed as error message.
Below programs illustrate the assertNotEquals() function in PHPUnit:
Program 1:
<?php
use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;
class GeeksPhpunitTestCase extends TestCase
{
public function testNegativeTestcaseForAssertNotEquals()
{
$expected = "geeks" ;
$actual = "geeks" ;
$this ->assertNotEquals(
$expected ,
$actual ,
"actual value is equals to expected"
);
}
}
?>
