Provide support for context hierarchies in the TCF
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.
