• assert two Lists with the same contents are not ==, and neither are two Maps nor two Sets, while package:test's equals matcher deep-compares the same values, nested ones included, and passes
• assert a const collection is canonicalized, so const [1, 2] is identical to const [1, 2], that canonicalization is per type argument, and that copying the list loses the equality again
• assert ListEquality compares in order while MapEquality and SetEquality do not, their hashes agree where their equals does, and IterableEquality compares a List against a Set
• assert ListEquality and MapEquality go exactly one level deep, so nested collections are compared with == and only match when the inner values are const-canonicalized
• assert DeepCollectionEquality recurses through nested maps, lists and sets, is already order-insensitive for Sets but not for Lists, that unordered() extends that to Lists as a multiset, and that non-collections fall through to the base equality
• assert a Map used as a key in a plain Map only matches the instance it was stored under, so the cache grows and never hits, while a HashMap given DeepCollectionEquality's equals and hash matches a rebuilt key whatever order its literal was written in
• assert equal structures produce equal DeepCollectionEquality hashes, that the ordered and unordered hashes track their own equalities, and that a HashMap given equals without hashCode misses 2000 freshly built keys without calling the equals it was given even once
• assert groupBy returns exact groups keyed in first-occurrence order, firstWhereOrNull returns null where the SDK's firstWhere throws StateError, and whereNotNull yields the same List<int> as the SDK's nonNulls that deprecates it
• assert Dart records compare by value and work as Map keys, but a record holding a List is back to identity
