In commit 9711db787e, we introduced support for disabling test
application context pausing via a Spring property or JVM system
property, as follows.
-Dspring.test.context.cache.pause=never
However, users may actually be interested in keeping the pausing
feature enabled if contexts are not paused unnecessarily.
To address that, this commit introduces a new
PauseMode.ON_CONTEXT_SWITCH enum constant which is now used by default
in the DefaultContextCache.
With this new pause mode, an unused application context will no longer
be paused immediately. Instead, an unused application context will be
paused lazily the first time a different context is retrieved from or
stored in the ContextCache. This effectively means that an unused
context will not be paused at all if the next test class uses the same
context.
Although ON_CONTEXT_SWITCH is the now the default pause mode, users
still have the option to enable context pausing for all usage scenarios
(not only context switches) by setting the Spring property or JVM
system property to ALWAYS (case insensitive) — for example:
-Dspring.test.context.cache.pause=always
This commit also introduces a dedicated "Context Pausing" section in
the reference manual.

In order to improve the user experience with URLs for sections of the
Validation chapter, this commit makes the following changes to page
names in the "validation" folder.
- beans-beans.html --> data-binding.html
- conversion.html --> error-code-resolution.html
Some of the section anchors in data-binding.html have also been
renamed. For example, #beans-beans is now #data-binding-property-binding.
Closes gh-35181
This commit evolves the CDS documentation to a JVM AOT cache
one for Java 24+, while still documenting how to use CDS for
Java 17 to Java 23.
Closes gh-34700
This commit restructures the section on MockMvc so that the anchors
are easier to read. The standard integration has moved to a
Hamcrest Integration section at the same level as HtmlUnit Integration,
and a new AssertJ Integration section has been created.
Closes gh-32454
This change splits the documentation in the reference manual: the
`@TestBean`, `@MockitoBean` and `@MockitoSpyBean` annotations are kept
in the appendix and the general documentation about the feature is moved
into a dedicated sub-section of the TCF section.

This commit introduces two sets of annotations (`@TestBean` on one side
and `MockitoBean`/`MockitoSpyBean` on the other side), as well as an
extension mecanism based on the `@BeanOverride` meta-annotation.
Extension implementors are expected to only provide an annotation,
a BeanOverrideProcessor implementation and an OverrideMetadata subclass.
Closes gh-29917.
This commit extract spring-related links and recurring external links
into asciidoctor attributes to be used by the Antora toolchain.
It notably homogenizes links to:
- IETF RFCs
- Java Community Process JSRs
- the Java API Documentation (on the Java 17 version)
- Kotlin documentations (on the Kotlinlang.org version)
- the Spring Boot reference guide (on the `html` version)
This commit also reworks most link attributes to follow a
Project-Category-Misc syntax. For example, `spring-boot-docs` rather
than `docs-spring-boot`.
Finally, it makes an effort to clean up remainders from the previous
documentation toolchain, namely the `docs/asciidoc` folder and
`modules/ROOT/pages/attributes.adoc` file.
Closes gh-26864
Closes gh-31619
Prior to this commit, it was only possible to register a
ContextCustomizerFactory in the TestContext framework (TCF) via the
SpringFactoriesLoader mechanism.
This commit introduces support for declarative registration of a
ContextCustomizerFactory local to a test class via a new
@ContextCustomizerFactories annotation.
Closes gh-26148
