FloatEqualityComparer

Use this class to compare two float values for equality with NUnit constraints. Use FloatEqualityComparer.Instance comparer to have the default error value set to 0.0001f. For any other error, use the one argument constructor to create a comparer.

Static Properties

Syntax	Description
Instance	A singleton instance of the comparer with a default error value set to 0.0001f.

Constructors

Syntax	Description
FloatEqualityComparer(float allowedError)	Creates an instance of the comparer with a custom error value.

Public methods

Syntax	Description
bool Equals(float expected, float actual);	Compares the actual and expected float values for equality using Utils.AreFloatsEqual.

Example

[TestFixture]
public class FloatsTest
{
    [Test]
    public void VerifyThat_TwoFloatsAreEqual()
    {
        var comparer = new FloatEqualityComparer(10e-6f);
        var actual = -0.00009f;
        var expected = 0.00009f;

        Assert.That(actual, Is.EqualTo(expected).Using(comparer));

        // Default relative error 0.0001f
        actual = 10e-8f;
        expected = 0f;

        Assert.That(actual, Is.EqualTo(expected).Using(FloatEqualityComparer.Instance));
    }
}
