filtered UseAssertEqualsInsteadOfAssertTrue (PMD)

Use assertEquals(x, y) instead of assertTrue(x.equals(y))

This rule detects JUnit assertions in object equality. These assertions should be made by more specific methods, like assertEquals.

public class FooTest extends TestCase {
 void testCode() {
  Object a, b;
  assertTrue(a.equals(b)); // bad usage
  assertEquals(?a should equals b?, a, b); // good usage
 }
}
