[monperrus]

one day, we'll write a paper about AssertFixer. here we collect use cases and stories.

First use case: the tests of NpeFix fail because a change of the pretty-printing format of spoon.

  ReplaceGlobalTest.ReplaceGlobalInstanceTest:33 expected:<if ([(array)] == null)
    this.a...> but was:<if ([array] == null)
    this.a...>
  ReplaceGlobalTest.ReplaceGlobalVariableTest:54 expected:<if ([(array)] == null)
    this.a...> but was:<if ([array] == null)
    this.a...>
  SkipLineTest.skipLineTest:32 expected:<if ([(array)] != null)
    for (j...> but was:<if ([array] != null)
    for (j...>
  SkipMethodReturnTest.skipMethodReturnInConstructorTest:33 expected:<...   super();
    if ([(field)] != null) {
        ...> but was:<...   super();
    if ([field] != null) {
        ...>
  SkipMethodReturnTest.skipLineTest:60 expected:<if ([(array)] == null)
    return...> but was:<if ([array] == null)
    return...>
  ReplaceLocalTest.ReplaceLocalInstanceTest:33 expected:<if ([(array)] == null)
    for (S...> but was:<if ([array] == null)
    for (S...>
  ReplaceLocalTest.ReplaceLocalVariableTest:65 expected:<if ([(array)] == null)
    for (S...> but was:<if ([array] == null)
    for (S...>

Should be easily fixed by AsserFixer.
