You can find the below test case distributed with the sample which uses
Jersey client to get the collection from JAXBCollectionResource.

    public void testRootElementCollection() {
        GenericType<Collection<JAXBXmlRootElement>> genericType = new
GenericType<Collection<JAXBXmlRootElement>>() {};
        Collection<JAXBXmlRootElement> ce1 =
r.path("jaxb/collection/XmlRootElement").get(genericType);
        Collection<JAXBXmlRootElement> ce2 =
r.path("jaxb/collection/XmlRootElement").type("application/xml").post(genericType,
new GenericEntity<Collection<JAXBXmlRootElement>>(ce1){});
        assertEquals(ce1, ce2);
    }
