Bug #15712

DateTime#=== should be defined and compare date and time instead of just the date

Description

DateTime#=== is inherited from Date#=== without overwriting the #=== method, this leads to DateTime#=== comparing only dates and ignore the time part.

DateTime.new(2001, 2, 3) === DateTime.new(2001, 2, 3, 12)
=> false

I think this is not the expected behavior but existing code might rely on this.

Date#===: https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.1.9/libdoc/date/rdoc/Date.html#method-i-3D-3D-3D
