 Follow-up to:

 * #38266 for 5.7

 The `assertEquals()` test method does not check that the types of the
 expected and actual values match. This can hide subtle bugs especially
 when the values are falsey.

 Tasks:

 * Use `assertSame()` when the type of the value in the assertion is
 important
 * Replace overall usage of `assertEquals()` with type-strict assertion
 methods, with the aim of potentially removing its usage altogether
