Agree to not block teh release for the failing tests (which IMO are
false negatives):

The failures seem to be related to the order in which object
properties are serialized to JSON. A similar thing happened to the
Abiquo provider, where tests succeeded or failed depending on the JAXB
version (which kinda sucks).

If you take a closer look at the failure, it is just a matter of the
test, which is comparing the payloads as raw Strings, but if you take
into account the JSON structure and values, the generated requests are
correct. I think we could improve ExpectTests assertions in general to
avoid this kind of raw String comparisons, and make the tests happy
regardless of the Java/JAXB/foo versions.
