There's no reason to use literal boolean values or nulls in assertions. Instead of using them with _assertEquals_, _assertNotEquals_ and similar methods, you should be using _assertTrue_, _assertFalse_, _assertNull_ or _assertNotNull_ instead (or _isNull_ etc. when using Fest). Using them with assertions unrelated to equality (such as _assertNull_) is most likely a bug.
Supported frameworks:
* JUnit3
* JUnit4
* JUnit5
* Fest assert
== Noncompliant Code Example
----
Assert.assertTrue(true); // Noncompliant
assertThat(null).isNull(); // Noncompliant
assertEquals(true, something()); // Noncompliant
assertNotEquals(null, something()); // Noncompliant
----
== Compliant Solution
----
assertTrue(something());
assertNotNull(something());
