Interface Emptyable

Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface public interface Emptyable
Marks objects that can meaningfully be said to be empty. An example could be a POJO with all fields set to their default values. Classes that implement this interface get a free ride on the empty(), notEmpty() and deepNotEmpty() checks from the CommonChecks class. That is, instances of Emptyable can be tested using: 

 Check.that(myPojo).isNot(empty());
