Due to the deprecation of the TYPE_HIERARCHY_AND_ENCLOSING_CLASSES
search strategy (see gh-28079), this commit introduces a way for users
to provide a Predicate<Class<?>> that is used to decide when the
enclosing class for the class supplied to the predicate should be
searched.
This gives the user complete control over the "enclosing classes"
aspect of the search algorithm in MergedAnnotations.
- To achieve the same behavior as TYPE_HIERARCHY_AND_ENCLOSING_CLASSES,
a user can provide `clazz -> true` as the predicate.
- To limit the enclosing class search to inner classes, a user can
provide `ClassUtils::isInnerClass` as the predicate.
- To limit the enclosing class search to static nested classes, a user
can provide `ClassUtils::isStaticClass` as the predicate.
- For more advanced use cases, the user can provide a custom predicate.
For example, the following performs a search on MyInnerClass within the
entire type hierarchy and enclosing class hierarchy of that class.
MergedAnnotations mergedAnnotations =
MergedAnnotations.search(TYPE_HIERARCHY)
.withEnclosingClasses(ClassUtils::isInnerClass)
.from(MyInnerClass.class);
In addition, TestContextAnnotationUtils in spring-test has been
revised to use this new feature where feasible.
Closes gh-28207
This commit contains changes made because of the introduction of
HttpStatusCode. In general, methods that used to return a HttpStatus
now return HttpStatusCode instead, and methods that returned raw status
codes are now deprecated.
See gh-28214
This commit improves the documentation for test execution events,
especially with regard to the fact that, by default, a
BeforeTestClassEvent is not published for the first test class using a
particular ApplicationContext.
This commit also introduces tests that verify the default behavior and
the ability to change the default behavior with a custom
TestExecutionListener that eagerly loads the context.
Closes gh-27757
Prior to this commit, it was not clear that a configured base URI would
not be applied when invoking uri(URI).
This commit adds a note to the Javadoc to clarify that behavior.
Closes gh-28058
Prior to this commit, WebTestClient only supported "lenient" comparison
of the expected JSON body.
This commit introduces an overloaded variant of `json()` in the
BodyContentSpec that accepts an additional boolean flag to specify
whether a "strict" comparison should be performed.
This new feature is analogous to the existing support in MockMvc.
Closes gh-27993
Prior to this commit, the PrintingResultHandler in MockMvc -- typically
invoked via .andDo(print()) -- printed an `application/json` response
body using the default encoding (ISO-8859-1), which resulted in UTF-8
characters being garbled.
Since an `application/json` response is implicitly encoded using UTF-8,
the PrintingResultHandler now infers UTF-8 encoding for such response
bodies.
Closes gh-27926
