      • describedAs

        public ThrowableAssertAlternative<T> describedAs​(Description description)
        Sets the description of the assertion that is going to be called after.

        You must set it before calling the assertion otherwise it is ignored as the failing assertion breaks the chained call by throwing an AssertionError.

        This overloaded version of "describedAs" offers more flexibility than the one taking a String by allowing users to pass their own implementation of a description. For example, a description that creates its value lazily, only when an assertion failure occurs.

        Specified by:
        describedAs in interface Descriptable<T extends Throwable>
        Overrides:
        describedAs in class AbstractAssert<ThrowableAssertAlternative<T extends Throwable>,​T extends Throwable>
        Parameters:
        description - the new description to set.
        Returns:
        this object.
