Usage

plug-in

const chai = require('chai');
const assertArrays = require('chai-arrays');

array

Asserts that the type of actual is Array.

expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.array();
expect('foobar').not.to.be.array();

ofSize

Asserts that the size of actual is equal to expected.

expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.ofSize(3);
expect([1, 2, 3]).not.to.be.ofSize(5);

equalTo

Asserts that the actual is equal to expected.

expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.equalTo([1, 2, 3]);
expect([1, 2, 3]).not.to.be.equalTo([1, 2, 5]);

containing

Asserts that the actual is containing the expected element.

expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.containing(1);
expect([1, 2, 3]).not.to.be.containing(5);

containingAllOf

Asserts that the actual is containing all of the expected elements.

expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.containingAllOf([1]);
expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.containingAllOf([1, 3]);
expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.containingAllOf([1, 2, 3]);

containingAnyOf

Asserts that the actual is containing any of the expected elements.

expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.containingAnyOf([1]);
expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.containingAnyOf([6, 7, 3, 5]);
expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.containingAnyOf([1, 2, 3]);

sorted

Asserts that the actual array is sorted.

expect([1, 2, 3]).to.be.sorted();
expect([1, 2, 4, 3]).not.to.be.sorted();

expect([3, 2, 1]).to.be.sorted((prev, next) => prev < next); // sorting based on the provided function
