Github user koushik-das commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/725#issuecomment-133451646 @DaanHoogland check the base class The test cannot catch a new addition to the class which may break serialization. Suppose a new non-serializable member of type Object is added to the class and is initialized to null and only way to set it is through a new ctor or setter. Then the test would still pass. Ideally in this case you want the test to fail.
