• [x ] closes ENH: Allow to skip series type check in assert_frame_equal #48287
• [x ] [Tests added and passed]
• [ x] All [code checks passed]

An optional parameter called check_series_type was created in the assert_frame_equal function which solves the problem passed by issue #48287.

By default the parameter is set to True, however it is now its possible to set it to False and skip series_type_check.

Example:

import pandas as pd

class Series(pd.Series):
@Property
def _constructor( self ):
return Series

@property def _constructor_expanddim( self ): return DataFrame 

class DataFrame(pd.DataFrame):
@Property
def _constructor_sliced( self ):
return Series

s1 = pd.Series( [0] )
s2 = Series( s1 )

pd.testing.assert_series_equal(s1, s2, check_series_type=False)

df1 = s1.to_frame()
df2 = s2.to_frame()

pd.testing.assert_frame_equal(df1, df2, check_frame_type=False,check_series_type=False)
