MoveOperationUnitTests fail on Spring 5 RC1 [DATAREST-1092]

[spring-projects-issues]

Oliver Drotbohm opened DATAREST-1092 and commented

Spring 5 RC1 slightly changed the way that SpEL expressions report the attempt to set null for a value that's not nullable (e.g. boolean). On Spring 4.3, that attempt results in a NullPointerException that's handled by PatchOperation. On Spring 5, that case is reported through a SpelEvaluationException
