Namespace:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting
Assembly:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Sub AreNotEquivalent ( _
    expected As ICollection, _
    actual As ICollection _
)

public static void AreNotEquivalent(
    ICollection expected,
    ICollection actual
)

public:
static void AreNotEquivalent(
    ICollection^ expected, 
    ICollection^ actual
)

static member AreNotEquivalent : 
        expected:ICollection * 
        actual:ICollection -> unit 

public static function AreNotEquivalent(
    expected : ICollection, 
    actual : ICollection
)

Parameters

• expected
  Type: System.Collections.ICollection
  The first collection to compare. This contains the elements the unit test expects to be different from the actual collection.

• actual
  Type: System.Collections.ICollection
  The second collection to compare. This is the collection the unit test produced.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
AssertFailedException	The two collections contain the same elements, including the same number of duplicate occurrences of each element.

Remarks

Two collections are equivalent if they have the same elements in the same quantity, but in any order. Elements are equal if their values are equal, not if they refer to the same object.
