Getting a strange error when decorator isn't used

[alanjackman]

Using this syntax: assert_that(ixn_service.get_user_preferences(VALID_CMIS_ID).json().get('offlineVoicemailNotification'), False, f"User preference didn't match Expected") Instead of this syntax: assert_that(some_service.get_user_preferences(VALID_CMIS_ID).json().get('offlineVoicemailNotification'), is_(False), f"User preference didn't match Expected")

gives me this error: Unable to display children:Error resolving variables Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Some Guy\Envs\ssp\lib\site-packages\behave\model.py", line 1329, in run match.run(runner.context) File "C:\Users\Some Guy\Envs\ssp\lib\site-packages\behave\matchers.py", line 98, in run self.func(context, *args, **kwargs) File "features\steps\offline_notification_preferences_steps.py", line 328, in step_impl f"User preference didn't match Expected") File "C:\Users\Some Guy\Envs\ssp\lib\site-packages\hamcrest\core\assert_that.py", line 45, in assert_that _assert_bool(assertion=arg1, reason=arg2) File "C:\Users\Some Guy\Envs\ssp\lib\site-packages\hamcrest\core\assert_that.py", line 64, in _assert_bool raise AssertionError(reason) AssertionError: Assertion failed

assert_that() has two forms - assert_that(actual, matcher, [reason]) and assert_that(assertion, [reason]). The call you're making isn't of the 1st form, because the 2nd argument isn't a matcher, so it's falling back to the 2nd form.

As of 2.0, which we hope to release soon, type hints would warn you that you weren't calling assert_that() properly. Other than that, I'm not sure there's much better we can do about this.

OK, thanks for the information!
