Benedikt Ritter resolved CHAIN-88.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
      Assignee: Benedikt Ritter

Hello Stephan,

I have applied your patch. Just two comments:
* The patch still included tab characters. Please double check your IDE config ;)
* There was still a change in {{testSerialization()}}. I have reverted this change.

Your changes have been applied in [r1493355|http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=r1493355].

Regarding hamcrest: I'm not to crazy about hamcrest. I like it where it makes sense. For me {{assertEquals(expected, actual)}} is as good as {{assertThat(val, is(expected)}}. But {{assertThat(col, hasSize(3))}} is much better than {{assertEquals(3, col.size()}}.
If you have the spare time, feel free to change what ever you like from traditional asserts to assertThat.

Maybe it makes sense to provide custom matchers for the {{checkXXX}} methods in {{ContextBaseTestCase}}. I believe we use methods like this in several places. Before jumping in such a change, it makes sense to bring a discussion about this up on the ML.

Thanks a lot for contributing to commons!

> Some tests in ContextBaseTestCase contain strange code which is much too complicated or seems unnecessary. I have created a patch to address this issues. All tests run on my machine after applying the patches.
