'List.indexOf()' expression can be replaced with 'contains()'

Reports any List.indexOf() expressions that can be replaced with the List.contains() method.

Example:

boolean hasEmptyString(List<String> list) { // Warning: can be simplified return list.indexOf("") >= 0; }

The provided quick-fix replaces the indexOf call with the contains call:

boolean hasEmptyString(List<String> list) { // Quick-fix is applied return list.contains(""); }
