inline infix fun <reified T> (() -> T).shouldReturn(expected: T) = this() shouldBe expected

worth adding?

Could, of course, be a bit more elaborate and include a tailored failure message etc..

hmmm what’s the use case? I wonder if it can be written as this one instead?

run { ... } shouldBe expected

Hmm, I had a case where I wanted to test a list of Pair<Int, () -> String> using something like

items.forOne {
  it.first shouldBe 5
  it.second shouldReturn "hello"
}

I made some custom matchers later on so it's a non-issue for me now.. anyway.. you're right, I could've done this. 🙂

items.forOne {
  it.first shouldBe 5
  run(it.second) shouldBe "hello"
}

or just it.second() shouldBe "hello"
