Not able to verify objects by their content

[mikolajefento]

Hello! I've found an issue with verifying the objects when the contents are the same but instances are not. Here is the error message:

Calls to the same method with failing matchers:
  ByteArrayParser(1).doNothing(id = UUID@fcb4004, value = [72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 44, 32, 87, 111, 114, 108, 100, 33])
    [-] id:
       expect: UUID@8c11eee
       actual: UUID@fcb4004
    [-] value:
       expect: [72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 44, 32, 87, 111, 114, 108, 100, 33]
       actual: [72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 44, 32, 87, 111, 114, 108, 100, 33]

As one can see the contents of byte array are the same. Also I am using the any() matcher so it should not matter if the contents are the same at the first place.

The minimal reproducible example is attached. multiplatform-library-template.zip Tested on Mac with apple chip and on windows

It's expected behavior. All literal arguments are checked by equals. It seems that both ByteArray and UUID have default equals (by reference). For arrays it's a known behavior and mokkery provides a matcher contentEq. For UUID, override equals or use custom matcher e.g. matching.

Ok, makes sense. I've tried verifying with custom matcher and it works fine now. Thank you for quick response!
