ASSERT_EQUAL should not assume integer

[digitalentity]

In certain test-cases it's necessary to test for an exact float-point value. ASSERT_EQUAL is not suitable for this because it assumes arguments to be integers. ASSERT_FLT_NEAR is not suitable either, because it will accept not equal values.

The workaround I currently use is ASSERT_TRUE(function_under_test() == 1.0f), which works as expected, but is not as readable as ASSERT_EQUAL(function_under_test(), 1.0f).

How do you propose to implement this? The same ASSERT_EQUAL macro cannot be used, since the function behind it needs to print either 2 floats or 2 integers..
