Sortable

trait Sortable[-S]

Supertrait for typeclasses that enable the be sorted matcher syntax.

A Sortable[S] provides access to the "sortable nature" of type S in such a way that be sorted matcher syntax can be used with type S. An S can be any type for which the concept of being sorted makes sense, such as sequences. ScalaTest provides implicit implementations for several types. You can enable the be sorted matcher syntax on your own type U by defining a Sortable[U] for the type and making it available implicitly.

ScalaTest provides an implicit Sortable instance for types out of the box in the Sortable companion object:

  • scala.collection.GenSeq

  • Array

  • java.util.List

Companion:

class Object
trait Matchable
class Any
