A short description of the assertion |
The notEqual assertion uses the simple inverted comparison operator (!=) to compare the actual and expected arguments. When they aren't equal, the assertion passes; otherwise, it fails. When it fails, both actual and expected values are displayed in the test result, in addition to a given message.
equal() can be used to test equality.
notStrictEqual() can be used to test strict inequality.
The simplest assertion example:
QUnit.test( "a test", function( assert ) {
assert.notEqual( 1, "2", "String '2' and number 1 don't have the same value" );
});
