We have a number of serialization tests in Harmony.  You might want to
follow through a few examples and see how they use the framework defined
in [1].

Briefly, our JUnit tests are grouped by implementation classes, and
contain calls to:

    SerializationTest.verifySelf(<an instance>);
and
    SerializationTest.verifyGolden(this, <an instance>);

We are using it for our serialization testing. The mentioned class could be 
found here:
