    I don't think you need to write a new unit test for each model.  A more 
efficient way would be to write a generic testing utility like this (maybe 
inside a new file like 
test/scala/org/apache/spark/ml/util/MLTestingUtils.scala):
    ```
    object MLTestingUtils {
      def checkCopy(model: Model[_]): Unit = {
        val copied = model.copy()
        assert(copied.parent === model.parent)
      }
    }
    ```
    Later on, we can add other standard checks here as well.
