java - Adapters ignored when testing resources in Neo4j unmanaged extension -

i have implemented entityresource class entity model , entityadapter adapter overriding xmladapter in neo4j managed extension. works when deploying server. model uses adapter marshal entity , resource responds accordingly.

however in test class (below) uses neo4j harness , neo4jrule entityadapter ignored receive default marshaled version of entity unwanted values.

@rule public neo4jrule neo4j = new neo4jrule()         .withfixture( "create ({name:'test'})" )         .withextension( "/test", entityresource.class );   @test public void testread() {     // given     uri serveruri = neo4j.httpuri();      string uri = serveruri.tostring() + "test/entities/test";     http.response response = http.get( uri );      // should reply     assertequals( response.tostring(), 200, response.status() );     system.out.println( response.tostring() );  } 

the adapter must set correctly work in resource guess it's how test searches correct adapter. class declaration below anyway

@xmljavatypeadapter( entityadapter.class ) public class entity { 

why isn't test using adapter when server , how fix it?
