gtest: check if string is equal to one of two strings

Question

Consider that I have two strings:

std::string s1 = "ab"; 
std::string s2 = "cd";

and I want to check (e.g. using EXPECT_EQ) if some given std::string str is equal either to s1 or s2.

If gtest's ASSERT_* and EXPECT_* would return bool I could have written

EXPECT_TRUE(EXPECT_EQ(str, s1) || EXPECT_EQ(str, s2));

but, unfortunately, they don't.

Solution

Try it:

std::string s1 = "ab";
std::string s2 = "cd";
std::string str = "ab";
EXPECT_TRUE(s1 == str || s2 == str);

EXPECT_TRUE(str==s1 || str==s2) ?

I am in the situation that I have used as described and now I don't know why test is failing on server build but locally the tests succeeds. See bellow for a better solution.
