Override JsonPathAssertions "equals" method to fail always [SPR-17091]

[spring-issuemaster]

Henning Vogt opened SPR-17091 and commented

org.springframework.test.web.reactive.server.JsonPathAssertions does not have an equals method, thus this Unit-test will always pass:

ResponseSpec spec = this.client.get().uri("/aaa/select?q=*:*").exchange();
 spec.expectStatus().is4xxClientError().expectBody()
 .jsonPath("$.message").equals("test");

I'd suggest to override equals in JsonPathAssertions, makin it "fail()" always, pointing the user to the correct isEqualTo() method. (probably throw an AssertionError or something like that...?)

Okay I've done just that for JSON and XML assertions.
