In particular, avoiding synchronized Sets and Maps wherever possible (preferring a ConcurrentHashMap even instead of a synchronized Set) and specifying appropriate ConcurrentHashMap initial capacities (even if we end up choosing 16).
- Support external Javadoc links using Gradle's javadoc.options.links
- Fix all other Javadoc warnings, such as typos, references to
non-existent (or no longer existent) types and members, etc,
including changes related to the Quartz 2.0 upgrade (SPR-8275) and
adding the HTTP PATCH method (SPR-7985).
- Suppress all output for project-level `javadoc` tasks in order to
hide false-negative warnings about cross-module @see and @link
references (e.g. spring-core having a @see reference to spring-web).
Use the `--info` (-i) flag to gradle at any time to see project-level
javadoc warnings without running the entire `api` task. e.g.
`gradle :spring-core:javadoc -i`
- Favor root project level `api` task for detection of legitimate
Javadoc warnings. There are now zero Javadoc warnings across the
entirety of spring-framework. Goal: keep it that way.
- Remove all @link and @see references to types and members that exist
only in Servlet <= 2.5 and Hibernate <= 4.0, favoring 3.0+ and 4.0+
respectively. This is necessary because only one version of each of
these dependencies can be present on the global `api` javadoc task's
classpath. To that end, the `api` task classpath has now been
customized to ensure that the Servlet 3 API and Hibernate Core 4 jars
have precedence.
- SPR-8896 replaced our dependency on aspectjrt with a dependency on
aspectjweaver, which is fine from a POM point of view, but causes
a spurious warning to be emitted from the ant iajc task that it
"cannot find aspectjrt on the classpath" - even though aspectjweaver
is perfectly sufficient. In the name of keeping the console quiet, a
new `rt` configuration has been added, and aspectjrt added as a
dependency to it. In turn, configurations.rt.asPath is appended to
the iajc classpath during both compileJava and compileTestJava for
spring-aspects.

This commit adds Javadoc documentation for the WebApplicationContext
testing support that was recently introduced in the Spring TestContext
Framework.
Issue: SPR-9864
When Spr9799XmlConfigTests and Spr9799AnnotationConfigTests were
created, there were issues with the classpath related to slf4j
dependencies that made it impossible for these classes to reside in the
spring-test module. Consequently, these tests were added to the
spring-test-mvc module. However, the issues with slf4j have since been
resolved in the Gradle build, and this commit therefore moves these test
classes to the spring-test module where they belong.
Issue: SPR-9799
- Deleted unused imports.
- Switched from junit.framework.Assert to org.junit.Assert, since the
former is deprecated as of JUnit 4.11.
- Suppressed warnings for continued deprecated usage of
junit.framework.Assert.
Prior to this commit, executing an SQL script with JdbcTestUtils would
fail if a statement in the script contained a line comment within the
statement.
This commit ensures that standard SQL comments (i.e., any text beginning
with two hyphens and extending to the end of the line) are properly
omitted from the statement before executing it.
In addition, multiple adjacent whitespace characters within a statement
but outside a literal are now collapsed into a single space.
Issue: SPR-9982
Documented why static nested test cases in the spring-test module are
ignored, explaining that such "TestCase classes are run manually by the
enclosing test class". Prior to the migration to Gradle (i.e., with
Spring Build), these tests would not have been picked up by the test
suite since they end with a "TestCase" suffix instead of "Test" or
"Tests".
Re-enabled HibernateMultiEntityManagerFactoryIntegrationTests.
For the remaining tests that were disabled as a result of the migration
to Gradle, comments have been added to the @Ignore declarations.
Issue: SPR-8116, SPR-9398
- Defined global slf4jVersion as '1.6.1' in the Gradle build.
- Replaced dependencies on slf4j-log4j12 with slf4j-jcl where possible;
however, spring-test-mvc still depends on jcl-over-slf4j and
slf4j-log4j12 (see SPR-10070).
- Reenabled HibernateSessionFlushingTests.
- Verified that the following tests pass in the Gradle build and within
Eclipse:
- HibernateSessionFlushingTests
- HibernateTransactionManagerTests (Hibernate 3)
- HibernateTransactionManagerTests (Hibernate 4)
- RequestResponseBodyMethodProcessorTests
Issue: SPR-9421, SPR-10066
This commit relocates recently introduced web artifacts in the
TestContext framework to the ~.test.context.web package and renames some
classes for consistency with the existing code base.
- introduced package-info.java in the web package.
- ServletTestExecutionListener now extends
AbstractTestExecutionListener instead of implementing
TestExecutionListener.
- relocated AbstractGenericWebContextLoader,
AnnotationConfigWebContextLoader, XmlWebContextLoader, and
WebDelegatingSmartContextLoader to the web package.
- renamed XmlWebContextLoader to GenericXmlWebContextLoader for
consistency with GenericXmlContextLoader.
- changed the visibility of AbstractDelegatingSmartContextLoader and
AnnotationConfigContextLoaderUtils to public.
Issue: SPR-10067
The change removes the use of concrete Matcher implementations and thus
the dependency on hamcrest-lib leaving hamcrest-core as the only
(optional) hamcrest dependency.
Issue: SPR-9961
1) removed the hamcrest-all dependency requirement and replaced it with
the more focused hamcrest-library dependency
2) added MatcherAssertionErrors as a replacement of
org.hamcrest.MatcherAssert, which in hamcrest 1.1 is only available
through the hamcrest-all dependency (and not in hamcrest-core nor in
the hamcrest embedded in JUnit 4.4 through 4.8)
3) changed the required hamcrest version from 1.1 to 1.3 and made sure
the spring-test-mvc project does not rely on newer hamcrest
functionality without checking if it is available first
Applications that already depend on older versions of hamcrest
(in particular 1.1) via hamcrest-library, hamcrest-all or as part of
junit 4.4 through 4.8 should not be disrupted if they add spring-test
but may wish to exclude the hamcrest-library transitive dependency
from spring-test in order to avoid extra jars in the classpath
Applications that depend on hamcrest 1.3 should not have to do anything
Issue: SPR-9940
Code introduced in conjunction with SPR-5243 introduced package cycles
between the ~.test.context and ~.test.context.web packages. This was
caused by the fact that ContextLoaderUtils worked directly with the
@WebAppConfiguration and WebMergedContextConfiguration types.
To address this, the following methods have been introduced in
ContextLoaderUtils. These methods use reflection to circumvent hard
dependencies on the @WebAppConfiguration and
WebMergedContextConfiguration types.
- loadWebAppConfigurationClass()
- buildWebMergedContextConfiguration()
Issue: SPR-9924
Prior to this commit, the following two methods in ContextLoaderUtils
contained almost identical loops for traversing the test class
hierarchy:
- resolveContextLoaderClass(Class<?>, String)
- resolveContextConfigurationAttributes(Class<?>)
With this commit, resolveContextLoaderClass() no longer traverses the
class hierarchy. Instead, it now works directly with the resolved list
of ContextConfigurationAttributes, thereby removing code duplication.
Issue: SPR-9918
Code introduced in conjunction with SPR-5243 introduced package cycles
between the ~.test.context.web and ~.test.context.support packages. This
was caused by the fact that ServletTestExecutionListener extended
AbstractTestExecutionListener.
To address this, ServletTestExecutionListener now implements
TestExecutionListener directly.
Issue: SPR-9924
Prior to this commit the MockHttpServletRequest constructor chain set
the preferred local to Locale.ENGLISH. Furthermore, it was possible to
add additional preferred locales "in front" of ENGLISH; however, it was
not possible to delete ENGLISH from the list of preferred locales.
This commit documents the fact that ENGLISH is the default preferred
locale and makes it possible to set the list of preferred locales via a
new setPreferredLocales(List<Locale> locales) method.
Issue: SPR-9724
Prior to this commit, utility methods in JdbcTestUtils interpreted SQL
comments as separate statements, resulting in an exception when such a
script is executed.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing a
readScript(lineNumberReader, String) method that accepts a comment
prefix. Comment lines are therefore no longer returned in the parsed
script. Furthermore, the existing readScript(lineNumberReader) method
now delegates to this new readScript() method, supplying "--" as the
default comment prefix.
Issue: SPR-9593
SpringRunnerContextCacheTests suffers from JDK7-related non-determinism
in values returned from Class#getDeclaredMethods(), which in turn
affects JUnit and its execution of @Test methods.
This commit addresses this issue by introducing an
OrderedMethodsSpringJUnit4ClassRunner that sorts the test methods
alphabetically, which is actually required for
SpringRunnerContextCacheTests to work properly.
Issue: SPR-9789
This commit introduces RequestAndSessionScopedBeansWacTests which
verifies support for request and session scoped beans in the Spring
TestContext Framework (TCF).
This support was actually introduced as an intentional side effect of
the work performed for SPR-5243 through the addition of the new
WebTestExecutionListener.
Issue: SPR-4588
Prior to this commit, the Spring TestContext Framework only supported
loading an ApplicationContext in integration tests from either XML or
Java Properties files (since Spring 2.5), and Spring 3.1 introduced
support for loading an ApplicationContext in integration tests from
annotated classes (e.g., @Configuration classes). All of the
ContextLoader implementations used to provide this support load a
GenericApplicationContext. However, a GenericApplicationContext is not
suitable for testing a web application since a web application relies on
an implementation of WebApplicationContext (WAC).
This commit makes it possible to integration test Spring-powered web
applications by adding the following functionality to the Spring
TestContext Framework.
- Introduced AbstractGenericWebContextLoader and two concrete
subclasses:
- XmlWebContextLoader
- AnnotationConfigWebContextLoader
- Pulled up prepareContext(context, mergedConfig) from
AbstractGenericContextLoader into AbstractContextLoader to allow it
to be shared across web and non-web context loaders.
- Introduced AnnotationConfigContextLoaderUtils and refactored
AnnotationConfigContextLoader accordingly. These utils are also used
by AnnotationConfigWebContextLoader.
- Introduced a new @WebAppConfiguration annotation to denote that the
ApplicationContext loaded for a test should be a WAC and to configure
the base resource path for the root directory of a web application.
- Introduced WebMergedContextConfiguration which extends
MergedContextConfiguration with support for a baseResourcePath for
the root directory of a web application.
- ContextLoaderUtils.buildMergedContextConfiguration() now builds a
WebMergedContextConfiguration instead of a standard
MergedContextConfiguration if @WebAppConfiguration is present on the
test class.
- Introduced a configureWebResources() method in
AbstractGenericWebContextLoader that is responsible for creating a
MockServletContext with a proper ResourceLoader for the
resourceBasePath configured in the WebMergedContextConfiguration. The
resulting mock ServletContext is set in the WAC, and the WAC is
stored as the Root WAC in the ServletContext.
- Introduced a WebTestExecutionListener that sets up default thread
local state via RequestContextHolder before each test method by using
the MockServletContext already present in the WAC and by creating a
MockHttpServletRequest, MockHttpServletResponse, and
ServletWebRequest that is set in the RequestContextHolder. WTEL also
ensures that the MockHttpServletResponse and ServletWebRequest can be
injected into the test instance (e.g., via @Autowired) and cleans up
thread locals after each test method.
- WebTestExecutionListener is configured as a default
TestExecutionListener before DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener
- Extracted AbstractDelegatingSmartContextLoader from
DelegatingSmartContextLoader and introduced a new
WebDelegatingSmartContextLoader.
- ContextLoaderUtils now selects the default delegating ContextLoader
class name based on the presence of @WebAppConfiguration on the test
class.
- Tests in the spring-test-mvc module no longer use a custom
ContextLoader to load a WebApplicationContext. Instead, they now
rely on new core functionality provided in this commit.
Issue: SPR-5243
Class#getDeclaredMembers returns arbitrary results under JDK7. This
results in non-deterministic execution of JUnit test methods, often
revealing unintended dependencies between methods that rely on a
specific order to succeed.
JUnit 4.11 contains support for predictable test ordering [1], but at
the time of this commit, JUnit 4.11 has not yet been released.
Therefore we are testing against a snapshot version [2], which has been
uploaded to repo.springsource.org [3] for easy access. Note that this
artifact may be removed when JUnit 4.11 goes GA.
- Care has been taken to ensure that spring-test's compile-time
dependency on JUnit remains at 4.10. This means that the spring-test
pom.xml will continue to have an optional <dependency> on JUnit
4.10, instead of the 4.11 snapshot.
- For reasons not fully understood, the upgrade to the 4.11 snapshot
of junit-dep caused NoSuchMethodErrors around certain Hamcrest
types, particularly CoreMatchers and Matchers. import statements
have been updated accordingly throughout affected test cases.
- Runtime errors also occurred around uses of JUnit @Rule and
ExpectedException. These have been reverted to use simpler
mechanisms like @Test(expected) in the meantime.
- Some test methods with order-based dependencies on one another have
been renamed in order to fall in line with JUnit 4.11's new method
ordering (as opposed to actually fixing the inter-test
dependencies). In other areas, the fix was as simple as adding a
tearDown method and cleaning up state.
- For no apparent reason, the timeout in AspectJAutoProxyCreatorTests'
testAspectsAndAdvisorNotAppliedToPrototypeIsFastEnough method begins
to be exceeded. Prior to this commit the timeout value was 3000 ms;
on the CI server under Linux/JDK6 and JDK7, the test begins taking
anywhere from 3500-5500 ms with this commit. It is presumed that
this is an incidental artifact of the upgrade to JUnit 4.11. In any
case, there are no changes to src/main in this commit, so this
should not actually represent a performance risk for Spring
Framework users. The timeout has been increased to 6000 ms to
accommodate this situation.

Issue: SPR-9783
- Allow reset of GlobalAdvisorAdapterRegistry
Provide a reset() method allowing the GlobalAdvisorAdapterRegistry
instance to be replaced with a fresh instance. This method has
primarily been added to allow unit tests to leave the registry
in a known state.
- Protect against the fact that calls to configuration class methods
my occur in a random order.
Issue: SPR-9779
Starting with Spring 3.1 applications can specify
contextInitializerClasses via context-param and init-param in web.xml;
however, there is currently no way to have such initializers invoked in
integration testing scenarios without writing a custom
SmartContextLoader. For comprehensive integration testing it should
therefore be possible to re-use ApplicationContextInitializers in the
Spring TestContext Framework as well.
This commit makes this possible at the @ContextConfiguration level by
allowing an array of ACI types to be specified, and the out-of-the-box
SmartContextLoader implementations invoke the declared initializers at
the appropriate time.
- Added initializers and inheritInitializers attributes to
@ContextConfiguration.
- Introduced support for ApplicationContextInitializers in
ContextConfigurationAttributes, MergedContextConfiguration, and
ContextLoaderUtils.
- MergedContextConfiguration stores context initializer classes as a
Set and incorporates them into the implementations of hashCode() and
equals() for proper context caching.
- ApplicationContextInitializers are invoked in the new
prepareContext(GenericApplicationContext, MergedContextConfiguration)
method in AbstractGenericContextLoader, and ordering declared via the
Ordered interface and @Order annotation is honored.
- Updated DelegatingSmartContextLoader to support initializers.
Specifically, a test class may optionally declare neither XML
configuration files nor annotated classes and instead declare only
application context initializers. In such cases, an attempt will
still be made to detect defaults, but their absence will not result
an an exception.
- Documented support for application context initializers in Javadoc
and in the testing chapter of the reference manual.
Issue: SPR-9011
The invalidate() method in MockHttpSession is currently implemented
incorrectly. According to the Servlet specification, the method should
throw an IllegalStateException if it is invoked on an already
invalidated session. However, invoking invalidate() on the same
MockHttpSession instance multiple times does not throw an exception.
This commits addresses this issue by checking the invalid field and
throwing an IllegalStateException if it has already been set to true.
