It's funny that I have stumbled in the exactly same bug today.

Well, seems almost no one is actually using AreNotEqual if this lived to the 2.4.

Thanks Oren, I'll need to investigate this more but I think in the absence of an assert for Guid that MbUnit is casting to object and then equating as a null. The AreNotEqual has this gem.

if (expected == null ^ actual == null)

return;

As both become null in the cast it passes. Thats a complete guess at the moment until I can investigate more. Always fun.

Maybe it been updated since the version I'm running (1.0.2700) but the real problem I see is that AreEqual(object, object) uses the object's Equals() methods (via ObjectsEqual) which is customized to the class, while AreNotEqual just uses !(obj==obj) which ultimately just Object.ReferenceEquals.

That's because GUIDs are so unique that even two identical GUIDs are not quite equal. Duh.

That's nothing compared to my bug of the day:

try running this piece of code in the immediate window and then in the body of a funcion.

bool a = object.ReferenceEquals("A","A")

That's nothing compared to my bug of the day:

try running this piece of code in the immediate window and then in the body of a funcion.

bool a = object.ReferenceEquals("A","A")

a would be true as the compiler would have inturned the string "A"
