Add better diffing for `calledWith` and `calledWithExactly` failures #124

Open bskiff opened 6 years ago

bskiff commented 6 years ago

Currently when a test fails it provides output the following way: e.g.

const fooObject = {
    foo: 'foo'
};
const barObject = {
    bar: 'bar'
};
const stub = sinon.stub();

stub(fooObject);

expect(stub).to.be.calledWithExactly(barObject);

prints

AssertionError: expected stub to have been called with exact arguments { bar: "bar" }
{ foo: "foo" } { bar: "bar" }

It would be nice if this was a proper diff similar to what Chai's deep equal assertions provide. e.g.

const fooObject = {
    foo: 'foo'
};
const barObject = {
    bar: 'bar'
};

expect(fooObject).to.deep.equal(barObject);

prints

 AssertionError: expected { foo: 'foo' } to deeply equal { bar: 'bar' }                        
 + expected - actual                                                                           

  {                                                                                            
 -  "foo": "foo"                                                                               
 +  "bar": "bar"                                                                               
  }                                                                                             

Editors such as IntelliJ IDEA have support for the latter style and will provide a nicely formatted diff in their diffing tools if that convention is followed.

Any status on this? My team is facing this issue. Using calledWithExactly is much cleaner than expect(spy.lastCall.args).to.equal(expectedCall)

I've got a PR open here #141

I had the same problem and it was solved by using JSON.stringify(). Try this:

const fooObject = { foo: 'foo' }; const barObject = { bar: 'bar' }; const stub = sinon.stub();

stub(fooObject);

expect(stub).to.be.calledWithExactly(JSON.stringify(barObject));
