Checking object equality in Jasmine

Question

Jasmine has built-in matchers toBe and toEqual. If I have an object like this:

function Money(amount, currency){     this.amount = amount;     this.currency = currency;      this.sum = function (money){         return new Money(200, "USD");     } } 

and try to compare new Money(200, "USD") and the result of sum, these built-in matchers will not work as expected. I have managed to implement a work-around based on a custom equals method and custom matcher, but it just seems to much work.

What is the standard way to compare objects in Jasmine?

Answer 1

I was looking for the same thing and found an existing way to do so without any custom code or matchers. Use toEqual().
