Assert of optionals

[danon]

// when
Optional<String> optional = get();

// then
assertThat(optional).isPresent();

We could really, really use this

I think fest-assert is no longer developed. Take a look at http://joel-costigliola.github.io/assertj/ which is the successor

Man! Thank your for your supersonic response!

Is this the same library continued? Or is this written again completely from scratch?

[jschneider]

I am not too sure. But I strongly suggest to convert asap. It is worth it.
Most ideas are the same. So it shouldn't be too much work:
