Matchers.contains and hasItem should have equivalent for a list or collection - iterable is not enough for Mockito

[michaldo]

See example which works for an array but does not compile for a list.

public class HamcrestLimit {

    public void fooArray(String[] arr) {

    }

    public void fooList(List<String> list) {

    }



    static void main() {

        var mock = Mockito.mock(HamcrestLimit.class);
        mock.fooArray(new String[]{"a", "b", "c"});
        Mockito.verify(mock).fooArray(MockitoHamcrest.argThat(Matchers.arrayContaining("a", "b", "c")));  // <- fine


        mock.fooList(List.of("a","b","c"));
        Mockito.verify(mock).fooList(MockitoHamcrest.argThat(Matchers.contains("a", "b", "c")));  // <- does not compile

    }

Compilation failure:

HamcrestLimit.java:[25,29] incompatible types: inferred type does not conform to upper bound(s)
[ERROR] inferred: java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.lang.String>
[ERROR] upper bound(s): java.util.List<java.lang.String>,java.lang.Object

Java version: 25.0.1, mockito 5.23.0, hamcrest 3.0

Maybe it duplicates #436
