OR assertions

Just some more thoughts...
The second, hamcrest like approach, looks a like a bit more flexible, because it would be easy to add handy things like

any(x1, x2,...)

 noneOf(x1, x2,...)

etc...
But it would loose then the specific asserts, correct ?

Maybe something like

assertThat(variable, and()).isEqualTo(a).isEqualTo(b));
assertThat(variable, or()).isEqualTo(a).isEqualTo(b));
assertThat(variable, anyOf()).isEqualTo(a).isEqualTo(b));

wouldn't be flexible to hell, but keep the ease of fest ?

isIn / isNotIn assertions should do the job.

assertThat(variable).isEqualTo(a).or().isEqualTo(b); 
// or any(a, b,...)

can be written with isIn assertion as

assertThat(variable).isIn(a, b);

besides

noneOf(x1, x2,...)

can be written with isNotIn assertion as

assertThat(variable).isNotIn(x1, x2, ...);

Note also that isIn/isNotIn supports collection parameters, one can write

Collection myCollection = ... ; // init a collection with a and b
assertThat(variable).isIn(myCollection); 

Hi Joel,

thats indeed nice to have!
But as you already mentioned in the forum the 'or' think isn't just limited to isEqualTo() so it covers only a part of this issue.

Implemented as org.fest.assertions.condition.AnyOf. Please note this fix is in the FEST-Assert 2.x branch: https://github.com/alexruiz/fest-assert-2.x
