I am attempting to assert that an object being returned by a method call is of the type List<MyClass>
, so using xUnit I have tried the following:
var expected = typeof(List<MyClass>);
var actual = typeof(method());
Assert.IsType<List<MyClass>>(actual);
Assert.IsType(expected, actial);
Both of the above throw the IsTypeException
however if I perform:
var areSameType = expected == actual
areSameType
is true
. So is there something going on deeper down that I am not accounting for?

The first argument for Assert.IsType should be the object itself not its type, the following should not throw:
var expected = typeof(List<MyClass>);
var actual = Method();
Assert.IsType<List<MyClass>>(actual);
Assert.IsType(expected, actual);
