whyNotEqual

[ccorcos]

I'm getting what appears to be a bogus error:

    Expected { app: { data: {}, ui: { fetchinUser: false, fetchingInstruments: false, fetchingLoans: false, modalOpen: false, modalView: null, selectedTab: 0, sidebarOpen: false, sidebarView: null, snackbarList: [], snackbarNextId: 0 } }, form: { search: { _active: 'query', _asyncValidating: false, _error: undefined, _initialized: false, _submitFailed: false, _submitting: false, query: { _isFieldValue: true, visited: true } } } } to equal { app: { data: {}, ui: { fetchinUser: false, fetchingInstruments: false, fetchingLoans: false, modalOpen: false, modalView: null, selectedTab: 0, sidebarOpen: false, sidebarView: null, snackbarList: [], snackbarNextId: 0 } }, form: { search: { _active: 'query', _asyncValidating: false, _initialized: false, _submitFailed: false, _submitting: false, query: { _isFieldValue: true, visited: true } } } }

It would be great is failed assertions would use whyNotEqual to report the issue:

I recently ran into a similar issue and was able to debug it by importing is-equal/why manually and running it through. Turns out the prototype of the two objects I was comparing where different, causing is-equal to return false and create an assertion error. I'm rolling in here a bit late with this, but you might want to try that in the future if you run into issues like these.

That being said, I also think it'd be great to see error messages use whyNotEqual rather than spitting out the value of both objects in their entirety.
