Return to List

Test Writing: SimpleArrayList equals

Created By: Geoffrey Challen
/ Version: 2021.4.0

Given the starter code for the SimpleArrayList class below, complete the equals method. equals should return true if the passed Object is a SimpleArrayList with the same length and with the same items in the same positions.

Note that you do not and should not complete the other list methods: get, set, add, or remove.

Test Design Challenge

You're challenge is to write tests for this problem described above.

  • Provide a public class named TestSimpleArrayList with a single non-private class method named test that accepts no arguments and does not return a value.
  • If the implementation of the class described above is incorrect, your test method should throw an exception.
  • If it is correct, do not throw an exception.
  • You may want to use Java's assert method
public class SimpleArrayList {
private final Object[] values;
public SimpleArrayList(Object[] setValues) {
assert setValues != null;
values = setValues;
}
public boolean equals(Object o) {
return false;
}
}
