Compare Date objects with different levels of precision
java, junit
Solution
Use a `DateFormat` object with a format that shows only the parts you want to match and do an `assertEquals()` on the resulting Strings. You can also easily wrap that in your own `assertDatesAlmostEqual()` method.
Problem
I have a JUnit test that fails because the milliseconds are different. In this case I don't care about the milliseconds. How can I change the precision of the assert to ignore milliseconds (or any precision I would like it set to)? Example of a failing assert that I would like to pass: ``` Date dateOne = new Date(); dateOne.setTime(61202516585000L); Date dateTwo = new Date(); dateTwo.setTime(61202516585123L); assertEquals(dateOne, dateTwo); ```
