How to check the type of tkinter-widget-objects

I wanna create a simple GUI for a research project.
For this I have plenty of widgets and I want to check what their type is.
Lets take the entry-widget as an example. I have entries, which look like this:

entry_modelling_script_folder = tk.Entry(self, width=40)
entry_modelling_script_folder.grid(row=6,column=0)

Now I want to check wether a certain widget is an entry:

widget_type = type(current_widget)

which returns:
<class ‘tkinter.Entry’>

Now – how do I write the if-condition?
I only came up with stuff, that is not working:

if widget_type == '<class \'tkinter.Entry\'>':
if widget_type == 'tkinter.Entry':
...

I would really appreciate any help =)

(I know, there is a method .winfo_class() too, but this didnt work in the first step, so I chose type(…))

>Solution :

Use isinstance:

if isinstance(current_widget, tk.Entry):
    ...

Or

if widget_type == 'tkinter.Entry':
    ...

I prefer the first solution.
