This commit splits Spring REST Docs into two projects –
spring-restdocs-core and spring-restdocs-mockmvc.
spring-restdocs-core contains the vast majority of the code but does not
depend on a specific test framework other than JUnit. The use of a
Spring Test TestExecutionListener has been replaced with a JUnit test
rule. The rule is declared once per test class and configured with
the output directory to which the generated snippets should be written.
This simplifies the implementation as thread local storage is no longer
required to transfer information about the test that’s running into
Spring REST Docs. Instead, this transfer is now handled by the new test
rule. It has also simplified the configuration as it’s no longer
necessary for users to provide a system property that configures the
output directory.
spring-restdocs-mockmvc contains code that’s specific to using Spring
REST Docs with Spring MVC Test’s MockMvc. This is currently the only
testing framework that’s supported, but it paves the way for adding
support for additional frameworks. REST Assured is one that users seem
particularly interested in (see gh-80 and gh-102).
Closes gh-107
