Creates a new instance of FactoryBasedNavigableIterableAssert allowing to navigate to any Iterable element in order to perform assertions on it.

Navigational methods provided:

The available assertions after navigating to an element depend on the ELEMENT_ASSERT parameter of the given AssertFactory<ELEMENT, ELEMENT_ASSERT> (AssertJ can't figure it out because of Java type erasure).

Example with String element assertions:

 Iterable<String> hobbits = newHashSet("frodo", "sam", "pippin");

 // build an AssertFactory for StringAssert (much nicer with Java 8 lambdas)
 AssertFactory<String, StringAssert> stringAssertFactory = new AssertFactory<String, StringAssert>() {
   @Override
   public StringAssert createAssert(String string) {
     return new StringAssert(string);
   }
 };

 // assertion succeeds with String assertions chained after first()
 then(hobbits, stringAssertFactory).first()
                                   .startsWith("fro")
                                   .endsWith("do");

Parameters:: actual - the actual value.; assertFactory - the factory used to create the elements assert instance.
Returns:: the created assertion object.

Creates a new instance of ClassBasedNavigableIterableAssert allowing to navigate to any Iterable element in order to perform assertions on it.

Navigational methods provided:

the created assertion object.

then
```
public static AbstractCharSequenceAssert<?,String> then(String actual)

actual - the actual value.

Returns:

the created assertion object.

then
```
public static AbstractDateAssert<?> then(Date actual)

Parameters:

actual - the actual value.

Parameters:

actual - the actual value.

Returns:

the created assertion Throwable.

thenThrownBy

public static AbstractThrowableAssert<?,? extends Throwable> thenThrownBy(ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable shouldRaiseThrowable)

Allows to capture and then assert on a Throwable more easily when used with Java 8 lambdas.

Java 8 example :

 @Test
  public void testException() {
    thenThrownBy(() -> { throw new Exception("boom!") }).isInstanceOf(Exception.class)
                                                        .hasMessageContaining("boom");
  }

Java 7 example :

 thenThrownBy(new ThrowingCallable() {

   @Override
   public Void call() throws Exception {
     throw new Exception("boom!");
   }

 }).isInstanceOf(Exception.class)
   .hasMessageContaining("boom");

Parameters:: shouldRaiseThrowable - The ThrowableAssert.ThrowingCallable or lambda with the code that should raise the throwable.
Returns:: The captured exception or null if none was raised by the callable.

then
```
public static AbstractUriAssert<?> then(URI actual)
```
Creates a new instance of UriAssert.

Parameters:

actual - the actual value.

Returns:

the created assertion object.

then
```
public static AbstractUrlAssert<?> then(URL actual)
```
Creates a new instance of UrlAssert.

Parameters:

actual - the actual value.

Returns:

the created assertion object.

then

public static <T extends AssertDelegateTarget> T then(T assertion)

Returns the given assertion. This method improves code readability by surrounding the given assertion with then.

Consider for example the following MyButton and MyButtonAssert classes:

 public class MyButton extends JButton {

   private boolean blinking;

   public boolean isBlinking() { return this.blinking; }

   public void setBlinking(boolean blink) { this.blinking = blink; }

 }

 private static class MyButtonAssert implements AssertDelegateTarget {

   private MyButton button;
   MyButtonAssert(MyButton button) { this.button = button; }

   void isBlinking() {
     // standard assertion from core Assertions.then
     then(button.isBlinking()).isTrue();
   }

   void isNotBlinking() {
     // standard assertion from core Assertions.then
     then(button.isBlinking()).isFalse();
   }
 }

As MyButtonAssert implements AssertDelegateTarget, you can use then(buttonAssert).isBlinking(); instead of buttonAssert.isBlinking(); to have easier to read assertions:

 @Test
 public void AssertDelegateTarget_example() {

   MyButton button = new MyButton();
   MyButtonAssert buttonAssert = new MyButtonAssert(button);

   // you can encapsulate MyButtonAssert assertions methods within then
   then(buttonAssert).isNotBlinking(); // same as : buttonAssert.isNotBlinking();

   button.setBlinking(true);

   then(buttonAssert).isBlinking(); // same as : buttonAssert.isBlinking();
 }

Type Parameters:: T - the generic type of the user-defined assert.
Parameters:: assertion - the assertion to return.
Returns:: the given assertion.

then
```
public static <T> T then(AssertProvider<T> component)
```
Delegates the creation of the Assert to the AssertProvider.assertThat() of the given component.
Read the comments on AssertProvider for an example of its usage.

Parameters:

component - the component that creates its own assert

Returns:

the associated Assert of the given component
