Subj : static method signature matching issues in Rhino & JUnit

All,

We've been using Rhino with JUnit to enable writing of Test cases in
JS.  Now, we recently upgraded to 1.5.5 from 1.5.2, and noticed the
following exception in our javascript test cases.  The basic idea here
is that I import the TestCase object in as a JavaObject (aliased to
"Assert"), and then in Javascript, invoke:

    Assert.assertEquals("Unexpected status code", expectedStatusCode,
statusCode);

where expectedStatusCode and statusCode are vars set from an array.
(Note, they are also strings).  So, what we're doing is invoking the
TestCase.assertEquals static method here.  The exception makes
little/no sense, and I'm trying to figure out what is going on.

Exception -
org.mozilla.javascript.EvaluatorException:The choice of Java
constructor assertEquals matching JavaScript argument types
(string,string,java.lang.String) is ambiguous; candidate constructors
are: void
assertEquals(java.lang.String,java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object), void
assertEquals(java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.lang.String)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
mohak
