Jasmine.js comparing arrays

Question

Is there a way in jasmine.js to check if two arrays are equal, for example:

arr = [1, 2, 3]
expect(arr).toBe([1, 2, 3])
expect(arr).toEqual([1, 2, 3])

Neither seems to work.

Answer 1

Just did the test and it works with toEqual

please find my test:

http://jsfiddle.net/7q9N7/3/

describe('toEqual', function() {
    it('passes if arrays are equal', function() {
        var arr = [1, 2, 3];
        expect(arr).toEqual([1, 2, 3]);
    });
});

Just for information:

toBe() versus toEqual(): toEqual() checks equivalence. toBe(), on the other hand, makes sure that they're the exact same object.
