11,747 Pointshow would you use assertIsInstance() instead of assertEqual() for test_adding() in dice.py, if possible?
Hi,
So Kenneth demonstrates that this works:
def test_adding(self):
self.assertEqual(self.hand1+self.hand3,
sum(self.hand1.results)+sum(self.hand3.results))
Is there a way to test the same case, but using the following, instead?
def test_adding(self):
self.assertIsInstance(self.hand1+self.hand3,
... )
I tried dice.Roll for arg2 of assertIsInstance but it didn't work. Also, what is the command to find the answer that I'm looking for -- the second arg for assertIsInstance()? Thank you!
