        Instance the test is part of.
    lhs : scalar or array-like
        LHS value(s) to compare; may be a scalar or array-like of any
        dimension.
    rhs : scalar or array-like
        RHS value(s) to compare; may be a scalar or array-like of any
        dimension.
    rtol : `float`, optional
        Relative tolerance for comparison; defaults to double-precision
        epsilon.
    atol : `float`, optional
        Absolute tolerance for comparison; defaults to double-precision
        epsilon.
    relTo : `float`, optional
        Value to which comparison with rtol is relative.
    printFailures : `bool`, optional
        Upon failure, print all inequal elements as part of the message.
    plotOnFailure : `bool`, optional
        Upon failure, plot the originals and their residual with matplotlib.
        Only 2-d arrays are supported.
    plotFileName : `str`, optional
        Filename to save the plot to.  If `None`, the plot will be displayed in
        a window.
    invert : `bool`, optional
        If `True`, invert the comparison and fail only if any elements *are*
        equal. Used to implement `~lsst.utils.tests.assertFloatsNotEqual`,
        which should generally be used instead for clarity.
    msg : `str`, optional
        String to append to the error message when assert fails.
 
    Raises
    ------
    AssertionError
        The values are not almost equal.
