It sounds like test-only maven dependencies are resolved differently
from compile/runtime dependencies. Specifically, compilation seems to
refer to newer version: writeValueAsBytes was added in Jackson 1.5,
and for some reason tests are running with an earlier version that do
not include this method. It is bit odd that exception does claim there
is a missing method.
I don't know what is the right way to override test dependencies, but
using 1.5 version for tests should resolve the issue.
