Is this jalapeno?

A bloke at work gave me these, he said he didn't think they were jalapeno but wasn't sure.
 
They look like jalapeno to me, but being a bit of a noob what would I know.
 
It definitely looks like it to me, but there are also other anuums with that general shape. I think the purple immature pod may give it away but I've never grown jalapeños. I'm sure more experienced people will chime in.

Easiest way to tell would be to eat a slice. You know what a jalapeño tastes like I’m assuming? They definitely look like they could be jalapeños!

I think it is a jalapeno. Most Fresno peppers ive seen are less rounded on top. The main difference i get taste wise is the Fresno seems hotter ripe than a jalapeno. The flavor is more "complex" where the jalapeno mainly gets sweeter and less "grassy" when ripe. Love them both.
 
The ones at my local market always look like these and they are always ripe too which is a HUGE plus to me. They cost way more though.
