This commit updates a number of dependencies upon Java EE specs to
use the preferred artifacts. Part of this change has been to move
to new API artifacts for both JSTL and JavaMail. In both cases these
new API jars are genuine API jars, i.e. they no longer contain an
implementation. Where needed, implementation dependencies have been
added.
This commit rationalizes the use of @Order so that the standard
@Priority annotation can be used instead. The handling of both
annotations are now defined in OrderUtils.
This also updates the link to the JavaEE API so that we refer to
JavaEE7 instead of JavaEE6.

This commit adds support for @Priority to filter multiple candidates
for autowiring. When multiple candidates are available for a given
bean, the bean annotated with @Primary is used. If none exists, the
one with the higher value for the @Priority annotation is used. If
two beans have the same priority a NoUniqueBeanDefinitionException
is thrown, just as if two beans are annotated with @Primary.
The underlying code for #getBean and #resolveDependency has been
merged as this feature is available for both dependency injection
and bean lookup by type.

Improved the SAX to StAX (and vice-versa) bridge exposed via StaxUtils.
The old integration had some issues with namespace declaration
attributes, brought to light in a XMLUnit upgrade.

In Tiles v3 integration, underscores in filenames are
intended to identify the definition locale. This behavior
is now documented in order to avoid unexpected results
with filenames like tiles_definitions.xml.
This commit also updates Tiles v2 references to Tiles v3
in the Spring reference documentation.

This commit aligns our include and exclude filters for test classes
with Gradle's standard patterns. Specifically, our patterns now end
with ".class" instead of ".*".
The aforementioned change makes the exclusion of inner classes
unnecessary. Thus, patterns for test classes ending with "TestCase" or
"TestSuite" have been deleted.
Furthermore, the include and exclude patterns previously used in the
spring-test module made it impossible for the
FailingBeforeAndAfterMethodsTests class in the 'testng' package to ever
be executed by the build. This has been addressed by renaming our JUnit
and TestNG variants of FailingBeforeAndAfterMethodsTests and moving the
TestNG variant into the 'junit' package so that it can be picked with
our standard include pattern for JUnit-based tests.
Prior to this commit, the test results for JUnit tests overwrote the
results for TestNG tests in the HTML test report generated by the
Gradle build.
This commit addresses this problem by introducing a new
'aggregateTestReports' task in the spring-test module and making the
'check' task depend on it.
To see aggregated reports in the spring-test module, execute either
`gradle build` or `gradle check`. Executing `gradle test` alone will
not trigger test report aggregation.

Ant 1.9.2 is packaged with Gradle since release 1.10. Since the Spring
Framework build now uses Gradle 1.11, there is no longer a need for the
"javac1.7" build compiler work-around for the spring-oxm module.
Prior to this commit several test classes named "*Test" were not
recognized as tests by the Gradle build. This is due to the configured
inclusion of '**/*Tests.*' which follows Spring's naming convention for
test classes.
This commit addresses this issue by:
- Renaming real test classes consistently to "*Tests".
- Renaming internal test classes to "*TestCase".
- Renaming @WebTest to @WebTestStereotype.
- Disabling broken tests in AnnoDrivenStaticEntityMockingControlTest.
- Modifying the Gradle build configuration so that classes ending in
either "*Tests" or "*Test" are considered test classes.

This commit introduces transactional integration tests executing
against both JUnit and TestNG in the TestContext framework (TCF) using
@TransactionAttribute in EJBs instead of Spring’s @Transactional
annotation.
These tests disprove the claims raised in SPR-6132 by demonstrating that
transaction support in the TCF works as expected when a transactional
EJB method that is configured with TransactionAttribute.REQUIRES_NEW is
invoked. Specifically:
- The transaction managed by the TCF is suspended while such an EJB
method is invoked.
- Any work performed within the new transaction for the EJB method is
committed after the method invocation completes.
- The transaction managed by the TCF is resumed and subsequently
either rolled back or committed as necessary based on the
configuration of @Rollback and @TransactionConfiguration.
The configuration for the JUnit-based tests is straightforward and self
explanatory; however, the configuration for the TestNG tests is less
intuitive.
In order for the TCF to function properly, the developer must ensure
that test methods within a given TestNG test (whether defined locally,
in a superclass, or somewhere else in the suite) are executed in the
proper order. In a stand-alone test class this is straightforward;
however, in a test class hierarchy (or test suite) with dependent
methods, it is necessary to configure TestNG so that all methods within
an individual test are executed in isolation from test methods in other
tests. This can be achieved by configuring a test class to run in its
own uniquely identified suite (e.g., by annotating each concrete
TestNG-based test class with @Test(suiteName = "< Some Unique Suite
Name >")).
For example, without specifying a unique suite name for the TestNG
tests introduced in this commit, test methods will be executed in the
following (incorrect) order:
- CommitForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- CommitForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- RollbackForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- RollbackForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- CommitForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test2IncrementCount1()
The reason for this ordering is that test2IncrementCount1() depends on
test1InitialState(); however, the intention of the developer is that
the tests for an individual test class are independent of those in
other test classes. So by specifying unique suite names for each test
class, the following (correct) ordering is achieved:
- RollbackForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- RollbackForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test2IncrementCount1()
- RollbackForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test3IncrementCount2()
- CommitForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- CommitForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test2IncrementCount1()
- CommitForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test3IncrementCount2()
- RollbackForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- RollbackForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test2IncrementCount1()
- RollbackForRequiredEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test3IncrementCount2()
- CommitForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test1InitialState()
- CommitForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test2IncrementCount1()
- CommitForRequiresNewEjbTxDaoTestNGTests.test3IncrementCount2()
See the JIRA issue for more detailed log output.
Furthermore, @DirtiesContext(classMode = ClassMode.AFTER_CLASS) has
been used in both the JUnit and TestNG tests introduced in this commit
in order to ensure that the in-memory database is reinitialized between
each test class.
Issue: SPR-6132
Prior to this commit TestNG tests would only be executed by the Gradle
build if they were located in the “testng” package. Tests in subpackages
would therefore be omitted from the build.
This commit ensures that all TestNG classes in the “testng” package and
any of its subpackages are executed in the Gradle build.
Furthermore, this commit ensures that the JUnit-based
FailingBeforeAndAfterMethodsTests test class is executed along with the
other JUnit tests even though it resides under the “testng” package.
