equals( actual, expected, [message] )

A comparison assertion, equivalent to JUnit's assertEquals.
Similar to ok(), but outputs both actual and expected values, making debugging much easier. Whenever you compare non-boolean values, use this instead of ok.
Arguments:

actualObject
The actual result
expectedObject
The expected result
message (Optional)String
A message to display with the assertion result

Examples:
Add a test that contains a single assertions that is always true.

test("a test", function() {
  var actual = 1;
  equals(actual, 1);
  equals(actual - 1, 0, "this message is added to the assertion result, useful for debugging");
});
