Research direction

Start by reading the referenced issue 329 and pull request 330, then inspect the Quick start, Concepts, and Release notes sections linked in this issue. Update the dependency versions, headings, prose, imports, and examples to explain that AssertJ Core assertions can coexist with AssertJ DB assertions and are preferred, while retaining compatibility guidance for older versions; add the 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 notes.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hello AssertJ DB

Following https://github.com/assertj/assertj-db/issues/329 and its PR https://github.com/assertj/assertj-db/pull/330

AssertJ DB Documentation should now mention that it is now possible for both AssertJ DB and AssertJ Core assertions to coexist in the same class with only one static import from AssertJ Core.

I took a look at the documentation to find occurences of the Assertions class full name.

Here are the candidates for modification that I found :

Quick start

Concepts - Navigation

Release notes - https://assertj.github.io/doc/#assertj-db-release-notes

  • Add the 3.0.2 - and the 3.0.1 for good measure

As for how, here are my thoughts :

  • Using org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat with previous versions of the library would not compile. So developers still using those should not have that as the only reference. So for now I believe the documentation should mention both Assertions class.
  • However I believe the feature makes org.assertj.db.api.Assertions.assertThat irrelevant. And I think the documentation should make it clear that org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat is to be favored.

If documentation is open for contribution, I am willing to do a proposal.
