Hi,

I have a class A which has one-to-many or one-to-one relationships with several other classes. In my test case, I save A to db, then retrieve it using its auto-generated id. When I run my testcases, I got the following AssertionFailedError:
As are not the same expected: A@... but was A@....

I checked both As id, they are the same. I am wondering what caused these two objects to be different while they should be the same? Configuration?

By the way, the associations among A and other objects are bi-directional.

Has anyone encountered this kind of problem?

regards,

Hibernate guarantees identical objects (VM identity be memory location) only in the same Session scope. Use equals() to check for equality.
