Root Cause

The issue arises because the serialization and de serialization for Model class defines milliseconds as the granularity here. However for the other object under comparision the exact system time java.time.LocalDateTime(upto nanoseconds precision) is considered. The test will only pass when the system time taken is an exact millisecond value(i.e microsecond and nanoseconds are zero). The pass scenario has been verified using the following patch

Fix

Compare the objects only upto millisecond granularity as this is the level of precision defined in the model.

Verification of fix

The test passes without any other changes
