Add property to changes list even if they are same.(Javers)

I have a POJO as below

class Employee{

private int id;
private String name;
private String profession;
private int experince;

public Employee(int id, String name, String profession, int experience){
this.id = id;
this.name = name;
this.profession = profession;
this.experience = experience;
}

and i have two objects which i want to compare

Employee emp1 = new Employee(1, "John Doe", "Architect",10);
Employee emp2 = new Employee(2, "Michael", "Developer",10);

I compare both the objects and get changes as 

Diff diff = javers.compare(emp1,emp2);
List<Change> changes = diff.getChanges();

With this, I get (id, name, profession) as changed properties with their respective left and right values.

Is there any way I can include "experience" also as part of the Changes with left and right values as same?

Short answer is no, the Changes view reports, well, changed things only. Maybe you need the Snapshots view or Shadows view?

  • Shadow is a historical version of a domain object restored from a snapshot.
  • Change represents an atomic difference between two objects.
  • Snapshot is a historical state of a domain object captured as the property:value map

see https://javers.org/documentation/jql-examples/#data-history-views
