Surprisingly until now the MockMvcRequestBuilders did not have methods
for HTTP HEAD. This change adds such methods to the API making it
consistent with other HTTP method types.

This commit updates the Javadoc for getLocale() and getLocales() in
MockHttpServletRequest to point out that the mock implementation does
not comply with the the Servlet specification with regard to the
Accept-Language header.

This commit updates the class-level Javadoc for MockHttpServletRequest
with information regarding the default locale for the mocked server.

If a resource location in the MergedContextConfiguration has a ".xml"
extension, the GenericGroovyXmlContextLoader now delegates to a
dedicated XmlBeanDefinitionReader for loading bean definitions from that
resource, thus preserving XML validation for all XML resource locations.
For all other extensions (presumably only ".groovy"), the
GenericGroovyXmlContextLoader delegates to a GroovyBeanDefinitionReader.
Issue: SPR-11233
Spring Framework 4.0 introduced first-class support for a Groovy-based
DSL for defining the beans for an ApplicationContext. However, prior to
this commit, the Spring TestContext Framework (TCF) did not provide any
out-of-the-box support for using Groovy scripts as path-based resource
locations when loading an application context for tests.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing first-class support for
using Groovy scripts to load the ApplicationContext for integration
tests managed by the TCF. Specifically, the following changes have been
made in the TCF to support Groovy scripts.
- Introduced getResourceSuffixes() in AbstractContextLoader in order
to support multiple resource suffixes in the default detection
process. This feature is used by the new Groovy/Xml context loaders.
- Introduced GenericGroovyXmlContextLoader and
GenericGroovyXmlWebContextLoader which support both Groovy scripts
and XML config files for loading bean definitions. Furthermore,
these loaders support "-context.xml" and "Context.groovy" as
resource suffixes when detecting defaults. Note that a default XML
config file will be detected before a default Groovy script.
- DelegatingSmartContextLoader and WebDelegatingSmartContextLoader now
use reflection to choose between using GenericGroovyXmlContextLoader
and GenericGroovyXmlWebContextLoader vs. GenericXmlContextLoader and
GenericXmlWebContextLoader as their XML loaders, depending on
whether Groovy is present in the classpath.
- Groovy scripts can be configured via the 'locations' or 'value'
attributes of @ContextConfiguration and can be mixed seamlessly with
XML config files.

This is a follow-up on the commit introducing MockMvcConfigurer:
c2b0fac852
This commit refines the MockMvcConfigurer contract to use (the new)
ConfigurableMockMvcBuilder hence not requiring downcasting to
AbstractMockMvcBuilder.
The same also no longer passes the "default" RequestBuilder which would
also require a downcast, but rather allows a RequestPostProcessor to be
returned so that a 3rd party framework or application can modify any
property of every performed MockHttpServletRequest.
To make this possible the new SmartRequestBuilder interface separates
request building from request post processing while the new
ConfigurableSmartRequestBuilder allows adding a RequestPostProcessor
to a MockMvcBuilder.

Prior to this commit, the support for SQL script execution via @Sql
provided an algorithm for looking up a required
PlatformTransactionManager to use to drive transactions. However, a
transaction manager is not actually required for all testing scenarios.
This commit improves the transaction management support for @Sql so
that SQL scripts can be executed without a transaction if a transaction
manger is not present in the ApplicationContext. The updated algorithm
now supports the following use cases.
- If a transaction manager and data source are both present (i.e.,
explicitly specified via the transactionManager and dataSource
attributes of @SqlConfig or implicitly discovered in the
ApplicationContext based on conventions), both will be used.
- If a transaction manager is not explicitly specified and not
implicitly discovered based on conventions, SQL scripts will be
executed without a transaction but requiring the presence of a data
source. If a data source is not present, an exception will be thrown.
- If a data source is not explicitly specified and not implicitly
discovered based on conventions, an attempt will be made to retrieve
it by using reflection to invoke a public method named
getDataSource() on the transaction manager. If this attempt fails,
an exception will be thrown.
- If a data source can be retrieved from the resolved transaction
manager using reflection, an exception will be thrown if the
resolved data source is not the data source associated with the
resolved transaction manager. This helps to avoid possibly
unintended configuration errors.
- If @SqlConfig.transactionMode is set to ISOLATED, an exception will
be thrown if a transaction manager is not present.
Issue: SPR-11911
Prior to this commit, @Sql provided attributes for configuring the
syntax of the referenced SQL scripts as well as exception handling and
transaction behavior; however, such configuration could not be reused
across @Sql declarations thus requiring developers to copy-and-paste
common configuration and resulting in unnecessary code duplication.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing a new @SqlConfig
annotation that can be used to declare common, global configuration for
SQL scripts that can be reused within a test class hierarchy.
- Introduced top-level @SqlConfig annotation and extracted
common configuration attributes from @Sql.
- @SqlConfig can be used at the class level for common, global config
or via the new 'config' attribute of @Sql for local config.
- Introduced MergedSqlConfig as a holder for the merged values from
local and global @SqlConfig instances. MergedSqlConfig also contains
the logic for overriding global configuration with local
configuration.
- Refactored all attributes of @SqlConfig to be either of type String
or custom enums in order to support overriding. Empty Strings or
DEFAULT enum values imply the use of a default or inherited value.

After some further discussion:
The MVC config simplifies ViewResolver configuration especially where
content negotiation view resolution is involved.
The configuration of the underlying view technology however is kept
completely separate. In the case of the MVC namespace, dedicated
top-level freemarker, velocity, and tiles namespace elements are
provided. In the case of the MVC Java config, applications simply
declare FreeMarkerConfigurer, VelocityConfigurer, or TilesConfigurer
beans respectively.
Issue: SPR-7093
Following the separation of FreeMarker/Velocity/TilesConfigurer-related
configuration via separate interface, simplify and streamline the
view registration helper classes which no longer have much difference
(most are UrlBasedViewResolver's).
Updates to Javadoc and tests.
Issue: SPR-7093
This change improves the support for auto-registration of FreeMarker,
Velocity, and Tiles configuration.
The configuration is now conditional not only based on the classpath
but also based on whether a FreeMarkerConfigurer for example is already
present in the configuration.
This change also introduces FreeMarker~, Velocity~, and
TilesWebMvcConfigurer interfaces for customizing each view technology.
The WebMvcConfigurer can still be used to configure all view resolvers
centrally (including FreeMarker, Velocity, and Tiles) without some
default conifguration, i.e. without the need to use the new
~WebMvcConfigurer interfaces until customizations are required.
Issue: SPR-7093
This commit improves and completes the initial MVC namespace
view resolution implementation. ContentNegotiatingViewResolver
registration is now also supported.
Java Config view resolution support has been added.
FreeMarker, Velocity and Tiles view configurers are registered
depending on the classpath thanks to an ImportSelector.
For both, a default configuration is provided and documented.
Issue: SPR-7093
This change adds a method within the ModelResultMatcher that will allow
a user to assert whether the returned Model has an attribute with a
field that has a specific error associated with it.

This commit introduces unit tests that attempt to reproduce the problem
described in Spring Boot issue 885; however, the tests pass and
therefore do not confirm the reported problem.
See: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/885
Historically, Spring's JUnit 3.8 TestCase class hierarchy supported
programmatic transaction management of "test-managed transactions" via
the protected endTransaction() and startNewTransaction() methods in
AbstractTransactionalSpringContextTests.
The Spring TestContext Framework (TCF) was introduced in Spring 2.5 to
supersede the legacy JUnit 3.8 support classes; however, prior to this
commit the TCF has not provided support for programmatically starting
or stopping the test-managed transaction.
This commit introduces a TestTransaction class in the TCF that provides
static utility methods for programmatically interacting with
test-managed transactions. Specifically, the following features are
supported by TestTransaction and its collaborators.
- End the current test-managed transaction.
- Start a new test-managed transaction, using the default rollback
semantics configured via @TransactionConfiguration and @Rollback.
- Flag the current test-managed transaction to be committed.
- Flag the current test-managed transaction to be rolled back.
Implementation Details:
- TransactionContext is now a top-level, package private class.
- The existing test transaction management logic has been extracted
from TransactionalTestExecutionListener into TransactionContext.
- The current TransactionContext is stored in a
NamedInheritableThreadLocal that is managed by
TransactionContextHolder.
- TestTransaction defines the end-user API, interacting with the
TransactionContextHolder behind the scenes.
- TransactionalTestExecutionListener now delegates to
TransactionContext completely for starting and ending transactions.
