Compare 2 lists in MbUnit 3.1

I am trying to compare 2 Dictionary objects for equality in MbUnit 3.1 like so

Assert.AreEqual<FieldList>(expectedOutputFieldList, actualOutputFieldList);

Where FieldList is = Dictionary<开发者_运维问答string, object>

However this throws up the following "error":

Both values look the same when formatted but they are distinct instances.

Is there any method for comparing object data rather than instances?

Thanks in advance...

Try

Assert.AreElementsEqualIgnoringOrder(expectedOutputFieldList, actualOutputFieldList);

Mauricio is absolutely right. But more generally speaking, there are many useful assertions to be used with collections and enumerations in MbUnit v3. You may want to have a look at them:

• Assert.AreElementsEqual
• Assert.AreElementsEqualIgnoringOrder
• Assert.AreElementsNotEqual
• Assert.AreElementsSame
• Assert.AreElementsSameIgnoringOrder
• Assert.AreElementsNotSame
• Assert.Exists
• Assert.ForAll
• Assert.ContainsKey
• Assert.DoesNotContainKey
• Assert.Contains
• Assert.DoesNotContain
• Assert.IsEmpty
• Assert.IsNotEmpty
• Assert.Distinct
• Assert.Sorted
