Thanks @emopers. These changes certainly seem like a good idea to me. @tpietzsch What do you think? It's only additional sanity checks in the tests, so no performance impact on the library. My only (nitpicking) concerns are:
- Consistency of which kind of exception to throw if things go awry; and
- The "fix spacing" commit would ideally be squashed into the first commit, which would follow best practices for its commit message.

Would it not be better to call JUnit's fail method here, for consistency? These methods, while public, are only intended for use from unit tests, right?

Similarly: should we use fail here?

Upon further reflection, I am ambivalent about this. See #259 (comment) |

These tests calls of
Cursor.next()without checking if there are any elements to iterate over. Because the method is public and the iterators are obtained from inputs, they could be invalid (e.g., an empty list). This could lead to an exception. This pull request adds a 'hasNext()' check.
