public static void assertTrue(BooleanSupplier booleanSupplier)
public static void assertTrue(BooleanSupplier booleanSupplier, String message)
public static void assertTrue(boolean condition, String message)
public static void assertTrue(BooleanSupplier booleanSupplier, Supplier<String> messageSupplier)
public static void assertFalse(boolean condition)
public static void assertFalse(boolean condition, String message)
public static void assertFalse(boolean condition, Supplier<String> messageSupplier)
public static void assertFalse(BooleanSupplier booleanSupplier)
public static void assertFalse(BooleanSupplier booleanSupplier, String message)

Example

package com.logicbig.example;

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertTrue;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertFalse;

public class TrueFalseExamples {

  @Test
  void testBasicConditions() {
      int number = 10;

      assertTrue(number > 5);
      assertTrue(number == 10);
      assertFalse(number < 5);
      assertFalse(number == 15);
  }

  @Test
  void testStringOperations() {
      String name = "John Doe";

      assertTrue(name.startsWith("John"));
      assertTrue(name.contains("Doe"));
      assertFalse(name.isEmpty());
      assertFalse(name.endsWith("Smith"));
  }

  @Test
  void testListOperations() {
      java.util.List<String> fruits = new java.util.ArrayList<>();
      fruits.add("apple");
      fruits.add("banana");

      assertTrue(fruits.contains("apple"));
      assertTrue(fruits.size() == 2);
      assertFalse(fruits.contains("orange"));
      assertFalse(fruits.isEmpty());
  }
}
mvn test -Dtest=TrueFalseExamples
