Description

Since LuceneTestCase is a very useful abstract class that can be extended and used by many projects, having it extending org.junit.Assert limits all users to exclusively use the static methods of org.junit.Assert. In our project we want to use https://joel-costigliola.github.io/assertj where the main method to call is org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat which conflicts with the deprecated org.junit.Assert.assertThat, recognized by default by the compiler. So one can only use assertj if on every call uses fully qualified name for the assertThat method, i.e.

 

org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat(myObj.name()).isEqualTo(expectedName)
