> Version 1.3.0 Version 1.3.0 is out now and brings some convenient features for failing equality tests, e.g., @Test x == y or @Test isequal(x,y). When x and y have specific types listed below, TestingUtilities will print out a nicely formatted message about why specifically these two quantities are not equal (similar in spirit to [WhyNotEqual.jl](https://github.com/jw3126/WhyNotEqual.jl)).
