describeTo (Description description) ```

| Parameters || |---------------|----------------------| | `description` | `Description`
| ### matchesSafely ``` boolean matchesSafely (Cursor cursor) ```

| Parameters || |----------|-----------------| | `cursor` | `Cursor`
| | Returns || |-----------|--------| | `boolean` |
| ### withStrictColumnChecks ``` CursorMatchers.CursorMatcher withStrictColumnChecks (boolean checkColumns) ``` Allows test authors to override whether the the matcher should throw an[IllegalArgumentException](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/IllegalArgumentException.html)if the column name/count is not valid. This is useful in the case where a cursor may iterates over a data set with variable columns. By default, the checks are on.
