This appendix lists the various assertion parser functions that are available.
Global assertions
edit#assert_equals
edit{{#assert_equals: string $expected | string $actual [ | string $message ] }}
Reports an error identified by $message
if and only if the two variables, $expected
and $actual
are not identical to each other.
{{#assert_equals: 1 | 1 }} <!-- $message may be omitted --> {{#assert_equals: {{Template}} | foo | Template is not 'foo' }}
#assert_equals_ignore_case
edit{{#assert_equals_ignore_case: string $expected | string $actual [ | string $message ] }}
Reports an error identified by $message
if and only if the two variables, $expected
and $actual
are not identical to each other. Differences in casing are ignored in the comparison.

#assert_error
edit{{#assert_error: string $payload [ | string $message ] }}
Reports an error identified by $message
if and only if $payload
does not contain at least one div
, strong
