Matt Benson commented on LANG-727:
----------------------------------

I maintain that this test just verifies expectations of the code when running 
under a certain set of assumptions, including "the ArrayList implementation in 
use has an elementData member."  If we know that that means the Sun JDK, we 
should just turn the test off under other circumstances.  It's not like we 
don't have the vendor info readily available; this _is_ Commons Lang, after all.

> The unit test fails when running with IBM JDK 6:
> {noformat}
> Failed tests: 
>   testReflectionHierarchyArrayList(org.apache.commons.lang3.builder.ToStringBuilderTest): null 
> expected:<....ArrayList@115b115b[[elementData={<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,null>,null>,null>},size=0],modCount=0]>
> but 
> was:<....ArrayList@115b115b[[firstIndex=0,lastIndex=0,array={<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,<null>,null>,null>,null>}],modCount=0]>
> {noformat}
> Actually the test is wrong, because it makes wrong assumptions about the 
> implementation of ArrayList in the runtime.
