is there a way to detect expectations that can never fail, like expectThat("blah").isA<String>()?

[christophsturm]

thinking specifically of isA<> expectations when its clear at compile time

[robfletcher]

I’m not sure if it might be possible to do something with contracts in Kotlin 1.3

[robfletcher]

If it’s a reified type you can probably determine that it’s the same as the declared type of the receiver I guess and emit a warning.

[robfletcher]

That’s specific to isA, though

[robfletcher]

What we really need is limiting for meaningless comparisons

[christophsturm]

what meaningless comparisions are you thinking of except isA?

[robfletcher]

Nothing in particular
