I don't fully agree. What about defining an interface Comparable that 
has a method equals() in it? If you want to define your own definition 
of equals(), you simply implement Comparable.
assertEquals should then check if the object is an instance of 
Comparable, and if so, call equals(). Else it could take your approach.

Anyway, I would like it a lot if assertEquals() could at least make a 
message using the toString() methods of both objects instead of an empty 
message when the test fails...

Kind regards,
