Summary: assertEquals array comparison doesnt handle nulls

Initial Comment:

Assert.assertEquals(new Object[]{null},new Object[]{null}); throws a NullPointerException @ 133


Assert.assertEquals(null,null) is successful

java.util.Arrays.equals(new Object[]{null},new Object[]{null}) returns true



Assert.assertEquals(Object[],Object[]) should support null checking.

This bug not longer appear with version 4.3. This was already fixed.
Please, update to the latest JUnit version.

Also, remember to use the assertArrayEquals method to carry out array
comparisons due that the use of arrayEquals to compare arrays is deprecated
in version 4.3.
