AssertArg (patterntesting-rt 2.2.20-YEARS API)

java.lang.Object
- patterntesting.runtime.util.AssertArg

```
public abstract class AssertArg
extends java.lang.Object
```
This utility class is intended to check arguments. It is like the Assert class in Springframework and throws an IllegalArgumentException if the argument is not valid.
This class is abstract to avoid that it is instantiated. There are only static methods so there is no need to instantiate it. This is the same way like the Springframework does it.

For more information about the use of bean validation have a look at Bean Validation with Hibernate Validator framework
