Diffblue creates tests which refer into it's belly

Issues
1

good monday morning

Here is something new:
the latest generated tests try to import a file from within the Diffblue-runtime.
As this is not included in the project as a libary, it does not compile.
The ‘b’ is later used to check, if a PrintStream from some object is an instanceof b.
Never had something like that before.
I can upload the testFile to some non-public destination, if needed.

import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertTrue;
import static org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers.eq;
import static org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers.isA;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.anyInt;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.mock;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.verify;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.when;

import basement.cfw.EventLog;
import com.diffblue.cover.commons.h.b;                   <<----- 
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonInclude;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonSetter;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.Nulls;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.Base64Variant;

    void testNewVehicleServlet() throws MissingResourceException {
        // Arrange and Act
        VehicleServlet actualVehicleServlet = new VehicleServlet();

        // Assert
        EventLog eventLog = actualVehicleServlet.eventLog;
        assertTrue(eventLog.getLogStream() instanceof b);                 <<----- 
        ObjectMapper objectMapper = actualVehicleServlet.om;
        SerializationConfig serializationConfig = objectMapper.getSerializationConfig();
        assertTrue(serializationConfig.getDefaultPrettyPrinter() instanceof DefaultPrettyPrinter);
        JsonFactory factory = objectMapper.getFactory();
        assertTrue(factory instanceof MappingJsonFactory);
        DeserializationConfig deserializationConfig = objectMapper.getDeserializationConfig();
        ContextAttributes attributes = deserializationConfig.getAttributes();

the test was generated with plugin version 2024.08.02.
generating test with plugin 2024.08.01 for another, but similar, class did not show this.
That test did not try to access and verify the logStream of the eventLog-object.
