When to use
Use this skill when the user asks about:
- Writing fluent assertions in .NET tests (xUnit, NUnit, MSTest)
- Asserting on specific types: collections, strings, dates, exceptions, enums, booleans, HTTP responses, XML, JSON, streams
- Deep object graph comparison with BeEquivalentTo
- Asserting exceptions are thrown with specific messages or types
- Monitoring .NET events in tests
- Writing custom FluentAssertions extensions
- Upgrading between major FluentAssertions versions
