Assertion

ravinder

Hi,

Can you please tell me, what is the significance of "Assertion"? When should we add assert statements? Is it necessary to add assertion in our script?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi Ravinder,

If you want to verify that a calculator works correctly, you can

click on 2,
click on +
click on 3
click on =

At this point suppose the result shown by your newly developed awesome calculator is 23.

If you did not assert that the result is 5, your script would report a success!

So you need an assertion when you expect something and want to verify that the actual is the same as the expected value.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Narayan
