Research direction

Start at the shown RequestAssert assertThat(Request actual) method and reproduce its SoftAssertions behavior with assertj-core 3.19.0, comparing it with 3.15.0. Investigate how the generic return type affects the failure; done means SoftAssertions works with the newer AssertJ Core version.

Description

This was ok if i use assertj-core 3.15.0 SoftAssertions , but it breaks in assertj-core 3.19.0 .
Its due to generic return type

 public RequestAssert assertThat(Request actual) {
        return proxy(RequestAssert.class, Request.class, actual);
    }
