Since the introduction of the Spring TestContext Framework in 2007,
application contexts have always been stored in the context cache in a
"running" state. However, leaving a context running means that
components in the context may continue to run in the background. For
example, JMS listeners may continue to consume messages from a queue;
scheduled tasks may continue to perform active work, etc.; and this can
lead to issues within a test suite.
To address such issues, this commit introduces built-in support for
pausing application contexts when they are not in use and restarting
them if they are needed again.
Specifically, the TestContextManager now marks a test's application
context as "unused" after execution of the test class has ended, and
the underlying ContextCache then "stops" the application context if no
other test class is currently using the context. When a
TestExecutionListener later attempts to obtain a paused application
context -- for example, for a subsequent test class that shares the
same application context -- the ContextCache ensures that context is
restarted before returning it.

This commit provides first-class support for Bean Overrides
(@MockitoBean, @MockitoSpyBean, @TestBean, etc.) with
@ContextHierarchy.
Specifically, bean overrides can now specify which ApplicationContext
they target within the context hierarchy by configuring the
`contextName` attribute in the annotation. The `contextName` must match
a corresponding `name` configured via @ContextConfiguration.
For example, the following test class configures the name of the second
hierarchy level to be "child" and simultaneously specifies that the
ExampleService should be wrapped in a Mockito spy in the context named
"child". Consequently, Spring will only attempt to create the spy in
the "child" context and will not attempt to create the spy in the
parent context.
@ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class)
@ContextHierarchy({
@ContextConfiguration(classes = Config1.class),
@ContextConfiguration(classes = Config2.class, name = "child")
})
class MockitoSpyBeanContextHierarchyTests {
@MockitoSpyBean(contextName = "child")
ExampleService service;
// ...
}

Prior to this commit, @MockitoSpyBean could only be declared on fields
within test classes, which prevented developers from being able to
easily reuse spy configuration across a test suite.
With this commit, @MockitoSpyBean is now supported at the type level
on test classes, their superclasses, and interfaces implemented by
those classes. @MockitoSpyBean is also supported on enclosing classes
for @Nested test classes, their superclasses, and interfaces
implemented by those classes, while honoring @NestedTestConfiguration
semantics.
In addition, @MockitoSpyBean:
- has a new `types` attribute that can be used to declare the type or
types to spy when @MockitoSpyBean is declared at the type level
- can be declared as a repeatable annotation at the type level
- can be declared as a meta-annotation on a custom composed annotation
which can be reused across a test suite (see the @SharedSpies
example in the reference manual)
To support these new features, this commit also includes the following
changes.
- MockitoSpyBeanOverrideProcessor has been revised to support
@MockitoSpyBean at the type level.
- The "Bean Overriding in Tests" and "@MockitoBean and
@MockitoSpyBean" sections of the reference manual have been fully
revised.

In gh-33602, we introduced strict singleton enforcement for bean
overrides -- for example, for @MockitoBean, @TestBean, etc. However,
the use of BeanFactory#isSingleton(beanName) can result in a
BeanCreationException for certain beans, such as a Spring Data JPA
FactoryBean for a JpaRepository.
In light of that, this commit relaxes the singleton enforcement in
BeanOverrideBeanFactoryPostProcessor by only checking the result of
BeanDefinition#isSingleton() for existing bean definitions.
This commit also updates the Javadoc and reference documentation to
reflect the status quo.

Prior to this commit, OverrideMetadata was the only public type in the
org.springframework.test.context.bean.override package whose name did
not start with BeanOverride. In addition, an OverrideMetadata component
plays multiple roles in addition to serving as a holder for metadata.
This commit therefore renames OverrideMetadata to BeanOverrideHandler.
In addition, this commit updates the affected documentation and renames
the following related methods in the Bean Override support.
- BeanOverrideHandler: createOverride() -> createOverrideInstance()
- BeanOverrideHandler: track() -> trackOverrideInstance()
- BeanOverrideProcessor: createMetadata() -> createHandler()
- BeanOverrideContextCustomizer: getMetadata() -> getBeanOverrideHandlers()
- BeanOverrideRegistrar: registerNameForMetadata() -> registerBeanOverrideHandler()
- BeanOverrideRegistrar: markWrapEarly() -> registerWrappingBeanOverrideHandler()

This change remove the support for Mockito annotations, `MockitoSession`
and opening/closing of mocks that was inherited from Boot's `@MockBean`
support, as well as the switch to `MockitoSession` made in 1c893e6.
Attempting to take responsability for things Mockito's own JUnit
Jupiter extension does better is not ideal, and we found it leads to
several corner cases which make `SpringExtension` and `MockitoExtension`
incompatible in the current approach.
Instead, this change refocuses our Mockito bean overriding support
exclusively on aspects specific to the Framework. `MockitoExtension`
will thus be usable in conjunction with `SpringExtension` if one needs
to use `@Captor`/`@InitMocks`/`@Mock`/`@Spy` or other Mockito utilities.

Prior to this commit, a non-singleton FactoryBean was silently replaced
by a singleton bean. In addition, bean definitions for prototype-scoped
and custom-scoped beans were replaced by singleton bean definitions
that were incapable of creating the desired bean instance. For example,
if the bean type of the original bean definition was a concrete class,
an attempt was made to invoke the default constructor which either
succeeded with undesirable results or failed with an exception if the
bean type did not have a default constructor. If the bean type of the
original bean definition was an interface or a FactoryBean that claimed
to create a bean of a certain interface type, an attempt was made to
instantiate the interface which always failed with a
BeanCreationException.
To address the aforementioned issues, this commit reworks the logic in
BeanOverrideBeanFactoryPostProcessor so that an exception is thrown
whenever an attempt is made to override a non-singleton bean.
Closes gh-33602
Spring Boot's testing support registers a DynamicPropertyRegistry as a
bean in the ApplicationContext, which conflicts with the
DynamicPropertyRegistry registered as a bean by the Spring TestContext
Framework (TCF) since Spring Framework 6.2 M2.
To avoid that conflict and to improve the user experience for Spring's
testing support, this commit introduces a DynamicPropertyRegistrar API
to replace the DynamicPropertyRegistry bean support.
Specifically, the TCF no longer registers a DynamicPropertyRegistry as
a bean in the ApplicationContext.
Instead, users can now register custom implementations of
DynamicPropertyRegistrar as beans in the ApplicationContext, and the
DynamicPropertiesContextCustomizer now registers a
DynamicPropertyRegistrarBeanInitializer which eagerly initializes
DynamicPropertyRegistrar beans and invokes their accept() methods with
an appropriate DynamicPropertyRegistry.
In addition, a singleton DynamicValuesPropertySource is created and
registered with the Environment for use in
DynamicPropertiesContextCustomizer and
DynamicPropertyRegistrarBeanInitializer, which allows
@DynamicPropertySource methods and DynamicPropertyRegistrar beans to
transparently populate the same DynamicValuesPropertySource.
Closes gh-33501
Since we now use asciidoctor-tabs instead of spring-asciidoctor-backends,
we no longer need the `role="primary"` and `role="secondary"` attributes
for tab groups.

Prior to this commit, paths configured via the scripts attribute in
@Sql were required to be final paths without dynamic placeholders;
however, being able to make script paths dependent on the current
environment can be useful in certain testing scenarios.
This commit introduces support for property placeholders (${...}) in
@Sql script paths which will be replaced by properties available in
the Environment of the test's ApplicationContext.
Closes gh-33114
This commit uses the bean factory `isAutowiredCandidate` method directly
in `BeanOverrideBeanFactoryPostProcessor` to select a single match among
multiple candidates when matching by type.
The expected consequence, in most cases, is that this will delegate to
a `@Qualifier`-aware `QualifierAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver`.
In that sense, bean overriding by-type matching is now potentially
taking Qualifier annotations or meta-annotations into account.
It also changes the way existing bean definitions are checked in case
a bean name has been specified: factory beans are now taken into account
when checking the type of an existing definition matches the expected
bean override type.
Closes gh-32822
Prior to this commit, DynamicPropertyRegistry could only be used with a
static @DynamicPropertySource method in an integration test class;
however, it can also be useful to be able to register a "dynamic
property" from within a test's ApplicationContext -- for example, in a
@Bean method in a @Configuration class that is specific to testing
scenarios.
To support such use cases, this commit updates the dynamic property
source infrastructure so that a DynamicPropertyRegistry is always
registered as a singleton bean in a test's ApplicationContext. This
allows DynamicPropertyRegistry to be autowired into a @Configuration
class or supplied to a @Bean method as an argument as shown in the
following example.
@Bean
@DynamicPropertySource
ApiServer apiServer(DynamicPropertyRegistry registry) {
ApiServer apiServer = new ApiServer();
registry.add("api.url", apiServer::getUrl);
return apiServer;
}
Note that the use of @DynamicPropertySource on the @Bean method is
optional and results in the corresponding bean being eagerly
initialized so that other singleton beans in the context can be given
access to the dynamic properties sourced from that bean when those
other beans are initialized.
Side note: DynamicPropertySourceBeanInitializer temporarily implements
LoadTimeWeaverAware since doing so is currently the only way to have a
component eagerly initialized before the
ConfigurableListableBeanFactory.preInstantiateSingletons() phase.
However, we plan to introduce a first-class callback to support such
use cases in the future.
Closes gh-32271
This change switches default behavior of `@TestBean`, `@MockitoBean` and
`@MockitoSpyBean` to match the bean definition / bean to override by
type in the case there is no explicit bean name provided via the
annotation. The previous behavior of using the annotated field's name
is still an option for implementors, but no longer the default.
Closes gh-32761
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.

The ApplicationContext has a resource cache that it uses while the
context is being refreshed. Once the refresh phase completes, the
cache is cleared as its content is no longer in use. If beans are
lazily initialized, there is a case where the cache might be filled
again as processing is deferred past the refresh phase.
For those cases, the cache is not cleared. This can be a problem when
running in this mode with a large set of test configurations as the TCF
caches the related contexts.
This commit includes an additional TestExecutionListener to the TCF that
clears the resource cache if necessary once a test class completes. It
is ordered so that it runs after `@DirtiesContext` support as marking
the context as dirty will remove it from the cache and make that extra
step unnecessary.

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.
