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.

Prior to this commit, the Spring TestContext Framework (TCF) was
compatible with JUnit 4.5 or higher.
This commit effectively raises the minimum version of JUnit that is
officially supported by the TCF to JUnit 4.9, thereby aligning with
similar upgrades made in the Spring Framework 4.0 release (i.e.,
upgrading minimum requirements on third-party libraries to versions
released mid 2010 or later).
Issue: SPR-11908
Prior to this commit, SQL script annotations and related classes in the
TestContext framework (TCF) were named DatabaseInitializer*. However,
these annotations are not used only for initialization and are
therefore misleading when used for cleaning up the database.
This commit refines the names of annotations and related classes for
configuring SQL scripts to be executed for integration tests in the TCF
as follows:
- @DatabaseInitializer -> @Sql
- @DatabaseInitializers -> @SqlGroup
- DatabaseInitializerTestExecutionListener -> SqlScriptsTestExecutionListener
A special thanks goes out to the following attendees of the Zurich
Hackergarten meeting last night for their collective brainstorming:
@aalmiray, @atsticks, @ollin, @simkuenzi, @tangresh, @vyazelenko.
Issue: SPR-7655
Prior to this commit, it was possible to execute SQL scripts
programmatically via ResourceDatabasePopulator, JdbcTestUtils, and
ScriptUtils. Furthermore, it was also possible to execute SQL scripts
declaratively via the <jdbc> XML namespace. However, it was not
possible to execute SQL scripts declaratively on a per test class or
per test method basis.
This commit makes it possible to declaratively configure SQL scripts
for execution in integration tests via annotations that can be declared
at the class or method level. Details follow.
- Introduced a repeatable @DatabaseInitializer annotation that can be
used to configure SQL scripts at the class or method level with
method-level overrides. @DatabaseInitializers serves as a container
for @DatabaseInitializer.
- Introduced a new DatabaseInitializerTestExecutionListener that is
responsible for parsing @DatabaseInitializer and
@DatabaseInitializers and executing SQL scripts.
- DatabaseInitializerTestExecutionListener is registered by default in
abstract base test classes as well as in TestContextBootstrapper
implementations.
- @DatabaseInitializer and @DatabaseInitializers may be used as
meta-annotations; however, attribute overrides are not currently
supported for repeatable annotations used as meta-annotations. This
is a known limitation of Spring's AnnotationUtils.
- The semantics for locating SQL script resources is consistent with
@ContextConfiguration's semantics for locating XML configuration
files. In addition, a default SQL script can be detected based
either on the name of the annotated class or on the name of the
annotated test method.
- @DatabaseInitializer allows for specifying which DataSource and
PlatformTransactionManager to use from the test's
ApplicationContext, including default conventions consistent with
TransactionalTestExecutionListener and @TransactionConfiguration.
- @DatabaseInitializer supports all of the script configuration options
currently supported by ResourceDatabasePopulator.
- @DatabaseInitializer and DatabaseInitializerTestExecutionListener
support execution phases for scripts that dictate when SQL scripts
are executed (i.e., before or after a test method).
- SQL scripts can be executed within the current test's transaction if
present, outside of the current test's transaction if present, or
always in a new transaction, depending on the value of the boolean
requireNewTransaction flag in @DatabaseInitializer.
- DatabaseInitializerTestExecutionListener delegates to
ResourceDatabasePopulator#execute to actually execute the scripts.

This commit upgrades Hibernate-based integration tests in the
spring-test module to use Hibernate 4 instead of 3 and Hibernate
Validator 5 instead of 4. This streamlines and simplifies our
dependency management at the same time.
