-/**
- * This class exists solely to provide a serializable description of a matcher to be serialized as a field in
- * {@link AssumptionViolatedException}. Being a {@link Throwable}, it is required to be {@link Serializable}, but most
- * implementations of {@link Matcher} are not. This class works around that limitation as
- * {@link AssumptionViolatedException} only every uses the description of the {@link Matcher}, while still retaining
- * backwards compatibility with classes compiled against its class signature before 4.14 and/or deserialization of
- * previously serialized instances.
