[Bug]: objectContaining doesn't handle Symbols #14308

@ThePeterDenham

Description

@ThePeterDenham

Version

29.5.0

Steps to reproduce

  1. git clone git@github.com:peterrattew/jest-object-containing-example.git
  2. npm install
  3. npm run test

Expected behavior

In objectContaining.symbols.test.js I would expect the first test to fail and the second test to pass, but it is currently the reverse.

When converting the Symols to strings or using toMatchObject the correct tests pass.

➜ jest-object-containing-example (main) ✔ npm run test

> object-containing-example@0.0.0 test
> jest

 FAIL  ./toMatchObject.symols.test.js
  ● symbol: toMatchObject should fail

    expect(received).toMatchObject(expected)

    - Expected  - 1
    + Received  + 1

      Object {
    -   Symbol(bar): "bar",
    +   Symbol(foo): "foo",
      }

      5 | it('symbol: toMatchObject should fail', () => {
    > 6 |   expect(obj).toMatchObject({ [bar]: 'bar' });
        |               ^
      7 | });
      8 |
      9 | it('symbol: toMatchObject should pass', () => {

      at Object.toMatchObject (toMatchObject.symols.test.js:6:15)

 FAIL  ./objectContaining.symbols.test.js
  ● symbol: objectNotContaining should pass

    expect(received).toEqual(expected) // deep equality

    - Expected  - 2
    + Received  + 2

    - ObjectNotContaining {
    -   Symbol(bar): "bar",
    + Object {
    +   Symbol(foo): "foo",
      }

       8 |
       9 | it('symbol: objectNotContaining should pass', () => {
    > 10 |   expect(obj).toEqual(expect.not.objectContaining({ [bar]: 'bar' }));
         |               ^
      11 | });

 FAIL  ./objectContaining.strings.test.js
  ● string: objectContaining should fail

    expect(received).toEqual(expected) // deep equality

    - Expected  - 2
    + Received  + 2

    - ObjectContaining {
    -   "bar": "bar",
    + Object {
    +   "foo": "foo",
      }

    > 6 |   expect(obj).toEqual(expect.objectContaining({ [bar]: 'bar' }));
        |               ^
      7 | });
      8 |
      9 | it('string: objectNotContaining should pass', () => {

      at Object.toEqual (objectContaining.strings.test.js:6:15)
