Description:
I have found incompatibility between junit 3.8.1 and cactus 1.4.1. In this new 
version of junit a new exception was introduced called ComparisonFailure thrown 
when an assert equals for Strings fails. This class is a direct subclass of 
AssertionFailedError. Whenever string comparison fails junit throws 
ComparisonFailure instead of AssertionFailedError. In cactus source code for 
HttpURLConnection doTest(WebRequest theRequest) method the check is made for 
exception class name instead of using 'instance of' operator. This causes 
string comparisons to be reversed and reported as errors instead of failures as 
junit reports them.
