Visual studio 2008 unit test keeps failing
- by Gerbrand
I've create a method that calculates the harmonic mean based on a list of doubles.
But when I'm running the test it keeps failing even thou the output result are the same.
My harmonic mean method:
public static double GetHarmonicMean(List<double> parameters)
{
var cumReciprocal = 0.0d;
var countN = parameters.Count;
foreach( var param in parameters)
{
cumReciprocal += 1.0d/param;
}
return 1.0d/(cumReciprocal/countN);
}
My test method:
[TestMethod()]
public void GetHarmonicMeanTest()
{
var parameters = new List<double> { 1.5d, 2.3d, 2.9d, 1.9d, 5.6d };
const double expected = 2.32432293165495;
var actual = OwnFunctions.GetHarmonicMean(parameters);
Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual);
}
After running the test the following message is showing:
Assert.AreEqual failed. Expected:<2.32432293165495. Actual:<2.32432293165495.
For me that are both the same values.
Can somebody explain this? Or am I doing something wrong?
