#assert_equals

[edit]

{{#assert_equals: string $expected | string $actual [ | string $message ] }}

Reports an error identified by $message if and only if the two variables, $expected and $actual are not identical to each other.

{{#assert_equals: 1 | 1 }} <!-- $message may be omitted -->
{{#assert_equals: {{Template}} | foo | Template is not 'foo' }}

#assert_equals_ignore_case

[edit]

{{#assert_equals_ignore_case: string $expected | string $actual [ | string $message ] }}

{{#assert_equals_ignore_case: {{Template}} | Foo | Template is not 'foo' }}

#assert_error

[edit]

{{#assert_error: string $payload [ | string $message ] }}

Reports an error identified by $message if and only if $payload does not contain at least one div, strong, span or p tag with the attribute class="error". Tags with this attribute are usually returned by parser functions.
