This method passes if and only if the actual value is a scalar logical with a value of false. Therefore, entities such as empty arrays, false valued arrays, and zero doubles produce failures when used in this method, despite these entities exhibiting "false-like" behavior such as bypassing the execution of code inside of "if" statements.
This method is functionally equivalent to:
import matlab.unittest.constraints.IsFalse; assertable.assertThat(actual, IsFalse());
There exists more functionality when using the IsFalse
constraint
directly via assertThat
.
Unlike assertTrue
, this method may
create a new constraint for each call. For performance critical uses,
consider using assertTrue
.
Use assertion qualifications when the failure condition invalidates the remainder of the current test content, but does not prevent proper execution of subsequent test methods. A failure at the assertion point renders the current test method as failed and incomplete. Alternatively,
Use verification qualifications to produce and record
failures without throwing an exception. Since verifications do not
throw exceptions, all test content runs to completion even when
verification failures occur. Typically verifications are the
primary qualification for a unit test since they typically do not
require an early exit from the test. Use other qualification types
to test for violation of preconditions or incorrect test setup. For
more information, see matlab.unittest.qualifications.Verifiable
.
Use fatal assertion qualifications to abort the test
session upon failure. These qualifications are useful when the failure
mode is so fundamental that there is no point in continuing testing.
These qualifications are also useful when fixture teardown does not
restore the MATLAB® state correctly and it is preferable to abort
testing and start a fresh session. For more information, see matlab.unittest.qualifications.FatalAssertable
.
Use assumption qualifications to ensure that the test
environment meets preconditions that otherwise do not result in a
test failure. Assumption failures result in filtered tests, and the
testing framework marks the tests as Incomplete
.
