I am trying to write unit tests for a class that BinarySearchTree
keys()returns a Iterable. It uses another class called Queuein which the keys are in the queue and returned.
A queue (third party class), however, does not have equal () defined ones.
public class BinarySearchTree<Key extends Comparable<Key>,Value> {
Node root ;
private class Node{
private Key key;
private Value val;
private Node left;
private Node right;
private int N;
public Node(Key k, Value v,int N) {
super();
this.key = k;
this.val = v;
this.N = N;
}
}
public Iterable<Key> keys(){
Queue<Key> q = new Queue<Key>();
inOrder(root,q);
return q;
}
private void inOrder(Node x,Queue q){
if(x == null)return;
inOrder(x.left,q);
q.enqueue(x.key);
inOrder(x.right,q);
}
...
}
trying to write unit test
@Test
public void testKeys(){
MyBST<String, Integer> st = new MyBST<String, Integer>();
st.put("S",7);
st.put("E",2);
st.put("X",8);
st.put("A",3);
st.put("R",4);
st.put("C",1);
st.put("H",5);
st.put("M",6);
Queue<String> q = new Queue<String>();
q.enqueue("A");
q.enqueue("C");
q.enqueue("E");
q.enqueue("H");
q.enqueue("M");
q.enqueue("R");
q.enqueue("S");
q.enqueue("X");
Iterable<String> actual = st.keys();
assertEquals(q,actual);
}
This does not work
java.lang.AssertionError: expected: std.Queue<A C E H M R S X > but was: std.Queue<A C E H M R S X >

Do I need to execute equals () in a third-party class, or is there any other way to do this to check for equality? All I could think of was to start a loop deactivating from the q queue and compare it with what the iterator returned. I am not sure if there is a better way. Please, inform us.
Iterable<String> actual = st.keys();
Iterator<String> actualit = actual.iterator();
while(actualit.hasNext()){
String actualkey = actualit.next();
String exp = q.dequeue();
assertEquals(actualkey,exp);
}
