    Raise an assertion if two array_like objects are not equal.

    Given two array_like objects, check that the shape is equal and all
    elements of these objects are equal. An exception is raised at
    shape mismatch or conflicting values. In contrast to the standard usage
    in numpy, NaNs are compared like numbers, no assertion is raised if
    both objects have NaNs in the same positions.

    The usual caution for verifying equality with floating point numbers is
    advised.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x : array_like
        The actual object to check.
    y : array_like
        The desired, expected object.
    err_msg : str, optional
        The error message to be printed in case of failure.
    verbose : bool, optional
        If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

    ------

    Raise an assertion if two objects are not equal up to desired precision.

    .. note:: It is recommended to use one of `assert_allclose`,

              instead of this function for more consistent floating point
              comparisons.

    The test verifies identical shapes and verifies values with

    Given two array_like objects, check that the shape is equal and all
    elements of these objects are almost equal. An exception is raised at

    y : array_like
