      public static void assertCompareListModelAttribute(ModelAndView mav, String modelName, List expectedList)
      Compare each individual entry in a list, without first sorting the lists.
      Parameters:
      mav - the ModelAndView to test against (never null)

      expectedList - the expected list

      Parameters:
      mav - the ModelAndView to test against (never null)
      modelName - name of the object to add to the model (never null)
      expectedValue - the model value
    • assertModelAttributeValues

      public static void assertModelAttributeValues(ModelAndView mav, Map<String,Object> expectedModel)
      Inspect the expectedModel to see if all elements in the model appear and are equal.
      Parameters:
      mav - the ModelAndView to test against (never null)
      expectedModel - the expected model
    • assertSortAndCompareListModelAttribute

      public static void assertSortAndCompareListModelAttribute(ModelAndView mav, String modelName, List expectedList, Comparator comparator)
      Compare each individual entry in a list after having sorted both lists (optionally using a comparator).
      Parameters:
      mav - the ModelAndView to test against (never null)
      modelName - name of the object to add to the model (never null)
      expectedList - the expected list
      comparator - the comparator to use (may be null). If not specifying the comparator, both lists will be sorted not using any comparator.
    • assertViewName

      Check to see if the view name in the ModelAndView matches the given expectedName.
      Parameters:
