# MSTEST0037: Use proper 'Assert' methods | ||
|
||
| Property | Value | | ||
|-------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------| | ||
| **Rule ID** | MSTEST0037 | | ||
| **Title** | Use proper 'Assert' methods | | ||
| **Category** | Usage | | ||
| **Fix is breaking or non-breaking** | Non-breaking | | ||
| **Enabled by default** | Yes | | ||
| **Default severity** | Info | | ||
| **Introduced in version** | 3.7.0 | | ||
| **There is a code fix** | No | | ||
|
||
## Cause | ||
|
||
The use of <xref:Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.Assert> methods in a specific way when there is a better alternative. | ||
|
||
## Rule description | ||
|
||
There are multiple cases where you get this warning: | ||
|
||
- The use of `Assert.IsTrue(<expression> == null)` (with all combinations, like `IsFalse`, `!= null`, `is null`, or `is not null`). | ||
|
||
Using `Assert.IsNull(<expression>)` or `Assert.IsNotNull(<expression>)` is a better alternative. | ||
|
||
- The use of `Assert.IsTrue(<expression1> == <expression2>)` (with all combinations, like `IsFalse` or `!=`). | ||
|
||
Using `Assert.AreEqual(<expression1>, <expression2>)` or `Assert.AreNotEqual(<expression1>, <expression2>)` is a better alternative. | ||
|
||
- The use of `Assert.AreEqual(true, <expression>)` or `Assert.AreEqual(false, <expression>)`. | ||
|
||
Using `Assert.IsTrue(<expression>)` or `Assert.IsFalse(<expression>)` is a better alternative. | ||
|
||
- The use of `Assert.AreEqual(null, <expression>)` or `Assert.AreNotEqual(null, <expression>)`. | ||
|
||
Using `Assert.IsNull(<expression>)` or `Assert.IsNotNull<expression>` is a better alternative. | ||
|
||
In many cases, the better alternatives provide better messages when they fail and are also easier to read. | ||
|
||
## How to fix violations | ||
|
||
Use the better alternative method. | ||
|
||
## When to suppress warnings | ||
|
||
You usually don't want to suppress warnings from this rule. |
