Description

The StatusHelper class currently always patches the status regardless if it changed or not.

We should use an ObjectMapper and simply compare the ObjectNode representations and only patch if there is any change.

 

(I think we cannot directly compare the status objects because some of the content comes from getters and are not part of the equals implementation)
