Prior to this commit the Spring TestContext Framework supported creating
only flat, non-hierarchical contexts. There was no easy way to create
contexts with parent-child relationships.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing a new @ContextHierarchy
annotation that can be used in conjunction with @ContextConfiguration
for declaring hierarchies of application contexts, either within a
single test class or within a test class hierarchy. In addition,
@DirtiesContext now supports a new 'hierarchyMode' attribute for
controlling context cache clearing for context hierarchies.
- Introduced a new @ContextHierarchy annotation.
- Introduced 'name' attribute in @ContextConfiguration.
- Introduced 'name' property in ContextConfigurationAttributes.
- TestContext is now aware of @ContextHierarchy in addition to
@ContextConfiguration.
- Introduced findAnnotationDeclaringClassForTypes() in AnnotationUtils.
- Introduced resolveContextHierarchyAttributes() in ContextLoaderUtils.
- Introduced buildContextHierarchyMap() in ContextLoaderUtils.
- @ContextConfiguration and @ContextHierarchy may not be used as
top-level, class-level annotations simultaneously.
- Introduced reference to the parent configuration in
MergedContextConfiguration and WebMergedContextConfiguration.
- Introduced overloaded buildMergedContextConfiguration() methods in
ContextLoaderUtils in order to handle context hierarchies separately
from conventional, non-hierarchical contexts.
- Introduced hashCode() and equals() in ContextConfigurationAttributes.
- ContextLoaderUtils ensures uniqueness of @ContextConfiguration
elements within a single @ContextHierarchy declaration.
- Introduced CacheAwareContextLoaderDelegate that can be used for
loading contexts with transparent support for interacting with the
context cache -- for example, for retrieving the parent application
context in a context hierarchy.
- TestContext now delegates to CacheAwareContextLoaderDelegate for
loading contexts.
- Introduced getParentApplicationContext() in MergedContextConfiguration
- The loadContext(MergedContextConfiguration) methods in
AbstractGenericContextLoader and AbstractGenericWebContextLoader now
set the parent context as appropriate.
- Introduced 'hierarchyMode' attribute in @DirtiesContext with a
corresponding HierarchyMode enum that defines EXHAUSTIVE and
CURRENT_LEVEL cache removal modes.
- ContextCache now internally tracks the relationships between contexts
that make up a context hierarchy. Furthermore, when a context is
removed, if it is part of a context hierarchy all corresponding
contexts will be removed from the cache according to the supplied
HierarchyMode.
- AbstractGenericWebContextLoader will set a loaded context as the
ROOT_WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE in the MockServletContext when
context hierarchies are used if the context has no parent or if the
context has a parent that is not a WAC.
- Where appropriate, updated Javadoc to refer to the
ServletTestExecutionListener, which was introduced in 3.2.0.
- Updated Javadoc to avoid and/or suppress warnings in spring-test.
- Suppressed remaining warnings in code in spring-test.

Before this fix AntPathMatcher had a special rule for combining
patterns with wildcards and extensions as follows:
"/*.*" + "/*.html" => "/*.html"
This change ensures this rule never applies if the first pattern
contains URI variables.

This commit introduces TestGroup#JMXMP and adds assumptions to related
tests accordingly. These tests require the jmxoptional_remote jar on the
classpath, and are run nightly in the SPR-PERF build.

Update StringToEnumConverterFactory to search superclasses until
Class.isEnum() returns true. This allows conversion when the
enum class is obtained from the enum value:
public static enum SubFoo {
BAR { String s() { return "x"; } };
abstract String s();
}
conversionService.convert("BAR", SubFoo.BAR.getClass())
This fix is particularly important when converting collections of
enums.

Prior to this commit several HTTP classes made use of FileCopyUtils
when reading from or writing to streams. This has the unfortunate
side effect of closing streams that should really be left open.
The problem is particularly noticeable when dealing with a
FormHttpMessageConverter that is writing a multi-part response.
Relevant HTTP classes have now been refactored to make use of a new
StreamUtils class that works in a similar way FileCopyUtils but does
not close streams.
The NonClosingOutputStream class from SimpleStreamingClientHttpRequest
has also been refactored to a StreamUtils method.

Update the exception message used when Assert.instanceOf fails such
that it expects the provided message to end with '.'. This reverts
commit 5874383ef0 which caused the
implementation to be at odds with the JavaDoc and the previous
release.
The updated code also has the benefit of protecting against a null
message.
Issue: SPR-10269
Add a static factory method that can be used to create an array
TypeDescriptor with a specific element type. Allows array types
with generic elements to be constructed.

JDK 5 introduced an XML-based properties file syntax. This commit
ensures that when such files are supplied as the underlying resource
for a ResourcePropertySource instance, they are routed appropriately
to Properties#loadFromXML as opposed to Properties#load.

For testing purposes in which an Environment implementation is required
but a ConfigurableEnvironment is not desirable.
All methods are no-ops and return null, therefore NPEs are likely.
- Polished Javadoc for isAnnotationDeclaredLocally() and
isAnnotationInherited().
- Removed unnecessary call to Arrays.asList() in
isAnnotationDeclaredLocally().
- Suppress an (intentional) AspectJ warning
- Remove unused imports
- Suppress a [hiding] warning
- Fix a generics warning related to extension of final types

Prior to this commit many test utility classes and sample beans were
duplicated across projects. This was previously necessary due to the
fact that dependent test sources were not shared during a gradle
build. Since the introduction of the 'test-source-set-dependencies'
gradle plugin this is no longer the case.
This commit attempts to remove as much duplicate code as possible,
co-locating test utilities and beans in the most suitable project.
For example, test beans are now located in the 'spring-beans'
project.
Some of the duplicated code had started to drift apart when
modifications made in one project where not ported to others. All
changes have now been consolidated and when necessary existing tests
have been refactored to account for the differences.

Refactor spring-core tests to replace test beans from
'org.springframework.beans' with lighter test objects in
'org.springframework.tests.sample.objects'.
- Add TestGroup#LONG_RUNNING to distinguish from #PERFORMANCE, the
former being tests that simply take a long time vs the latter being
tests that are actually dependent on certain actions happening within
a given time window and are thefore CPU-dependent.

Move code from spring-build-junit into spring-core/src/test along with
several other test utility classes. This commit removes the temporary
spring-build-junit project introduced in commit
b083bbdec7.
Fix deprecation compiler warnings by refactoring code or applying
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation") annotations. JUnit tests of
internally deprecated classes are now themselves marked as
@Deprecated.
Numerous EasyMock deprecation warnings will remain until the
migration to mockito can be completed.
Make use of the new JUnit functionality introduced in the previous
commit to 'Assume' that perfomance- and timing-sensitive tests should
run only when TestGroup.PERFORMANCE is selected, i.e. when
-PtestGroups="performance" has been provided at the Gradle command line.
The net effect is that these tests are now ignored by default, which
will result in far fewer false-negative CI build failures due to
resource contention and other external factors that cause slowdowns.
We will set up a dedicated performance CI build to run these tests on
an isolated machine, etc.
