EasyAssertions

Easy-to-use fluent assertions with actually useful failure messages.

Instead of...

var a = "foo";
Assert.AreEqual("foo", a);

write

var a = "foo"
a.ShouldBe("foo");

...and if something goes wrong, get an actually useful error message:

var name = "Frod";
name.ShouldBe("Fred");
>> name
>> should be "Fred"
>> but was   "Frod"
>>              ^
>> Difference at index 2.

One assertion not enough? Just keep going! EasyAssertions will keep track of what you're really asserting on:

var name = "Fred";
name.ShouldEndWith("ed")
    .And.Length.ShouldBe(5);        
>> name.Length
>> should be <5>
>> but was   <4>

Getting Started

Using EasyAssertions is as easy as installing the NuGet package.
