Can't we simply rely on autoboxing?

Right, good point.

@marcphilipp @RahulNagekar I personally prefer not using autoboxing here. Having an explicit conversion here makes it clear to future readers that a conversion is happening.

I'm also in favour for Double.valueOf so that the code is the same like in JUnit 4's Assert.

I currently not sure if autoboxing would be more beneficial or valueOf (performance-wise).
As valueOf is used at many places in this file, I say keep it the same to preserve consistency in code.
