| If a test subject and the argument to `isEqualTo` are the same instance (e.g. |
| `assertThat(x).isEqualTo(x)`), then the assertion will always pass. Truth |
| implements `isEqualTo` using [`Objects#equal`] , which tests its arguments for |
| reference equality and returns true without calling `equals()` if both arguments |
| are the same instance. |

| [`Objects#equals`]: https://guava.dev/releases/21.0/api/docs/com/google/common/base/Objects.html#equal-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object- |

| To test the implementation of an `equals` method, use |
| [Guava's EqualsTester][javadoc]. |
