    descriptions of the differences found.

    The two objects to compare can be passed either positionally or using
    explicit keyword arguments named ``x`` and ``y``, or ``expected`` and
    ``actual``, or a mixture of these.

                   being raised, the prefix supplied will be prepended to the
                   message in the :class:`AssertionError`. This may be a
                   callable, in which case it will only be resolved if needed.

    :param suffix: If provided, in the event of an :class:`AssertionError`
                   being raised, the suffix supplied will be appended to the
                   message in the :class:`AssertionError`. This may be a

                    argument, or ``x`` keyword argument, will be labelled

                    being raised, the object passed as the second positional
                    argument, or ``y`` keyword argument, will be labelled
                    with this string in the message in the
                    :class:`AssertionError`.

    :param raises: If ``False``, the message that would be raised in the
                   :class:`AssertionError` will be returned instead of the
                   exception being raised.

                      nested data structure, attempt to highlight the location
                      of the difference.

    :param strict: If ``True``, objects will only compare equal if they are
                   of the same type as well as being equal.

    :param ignore_eq: If ``True``, object equality, which relies on ``__eq__``
                      being correctly implemented, will not be used.
                      Instead, comparers will be looked up and used

                      be considered equal if their hash is equal.

    :param comparers: If supplied, should be a dictionary mapping
                      types to comparer functions for those types. These will
                      be added to the comparer registry for the duration
                      of this call.
