Using the ``++assert++`` statement on a tuple literal will always fail if the tuple is empty, and always succeed otherwise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ``++assert++`` statement does not have parentheses around its parameters. Calling ``++assert(x, y)++`` will test if the tuple ``++(x, y)++`` is True, which is always the case.
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are two possible fixes:
|
|
|
|
* If your intention is to test the first value of the tuple and use the second value as a message, simply remove the parentheses.
|
|
* If your intention is to check that every element of the tuple is ``++True++``, test each value separately.

== Noncompliant Code Example

|
|
def test_values(a, b):
|
|
assert (a, b) # Noncompliant

== Compliant Solution
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
def test_values(a, b):
|
|
# If you mean to test "a" and use "b" as an error message
|
|
assert a, b
|
|
|
|
# If you mean to test the values of "a" and "b"
|
|
assert a and b
