Description

treardon writes:

The problem is that Mutation.equals() calls a private serialize() method that modifies the data about to be checked. I have successfully worked around this in the past by wrapping the Mutation in a new Mutation, which calls serialize under the hood:

assertEquals(expectedMutation, new Mutation(actualMutation));

This applies to 1.4.x, I don't know if Mutation.equals() has changed since then.
