+EqualTo
+=======
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.3
+    This constraint is new in version 2.3.
+
+Validates that a value is equal to another value, defined in the options. To
+force that a value is *not* equal, see :doc:`/reference/constraints/NotEqualTo`.
+
+.. caution::
+
+    This constraint compares using ``==``, so ``3`` and ``"3"`` are considered
+    equal. Use :doc:`/reference/constraints/IdenticalTo` to compare with
+    ``===``.
