Validation not working -- what am I missing?

[Ty Sarna]

Environment: Dropwizard 0.8.1, Java 1.8

I can't get Dropwizard's validation support to do anything. I believe I'm following what the manual suggests. Using the following resource, for example (and many variants using @Valid on the model class attributes, @Validated instead of @Valid, hibernate's @NotEmpty instead of javax.validation.constraints.NotNull, etc):

@Path("/test")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public class TestResource {
    static public class ModelClass {
        @JsonProperty("only_null") @Null public String onlyNull;
        @JsonProperty("not_null") @NotNull public String notNull;
    }

    @PUT
    public ModelClass testContainer(@Valid ModelClass record) {
        return record;
    }
}

If I PUT the following:

{"only_null":"shouldFail"}

rather than the expected 422, I get back:

{"only_null":"shouldFail","not_null":null}

What am I missing here? Is there some configuration that needs to be turned on to enable the validation?

This works for me (I get a 422), so perhaps there's something missing? If you have a pointer to a Github project that has the POM files, Application class, etc., that would help.
