Remove all blank lines from test code so that test methods are
visually grouped together. This generally helps to make the test
classes easer to scan, however, the "given" / "when" / "then"
blocks used by some tests are now not as easy to discern.
Issue gh-8945
Update all ternary expressions so that the condition is always in
parentheses and "not equals" is used in the test. This helps to bring
consistency across the codebase which makes ternary expression easier
to scan.
For example: `a = (a != null) ? a : b`
Issue gh-8945
Add an additional lines after the copyright header and before the
`package` declaration. This aligns with the style used by Spring
Framework.
Issue gh-8945
Migrate Mockito imports to use the BDD variant. This aligns better with
the "given" / "when" / "then" style used in most tests since the "given"
block now uses Mockito `given(...)` calls.
The commit also updates a few tests that were accidentally using
Power Mockito when regular Mockito could be used.
Issue gh-8945
Search and replace using '(?s)/\*\s*\* \(non-Javadoc\).*?\*/' to remove
all "(non-Javadoc)" comments. These comments used to be added
automatically by Eclipse, but are not really necessary.
Issue gh-8945
Replace code of the form `a = b =c` with distinct statements. Although
this results in more lines of code, they are usually easier to
understand.
Issue gh-8945
Apply an Eclipse cleanup rules to ensure that fields are always accessed
using `this.`. This aligns with the style used by Spring Framework and
helps users quickly see the difference between a local and member
variable.
Issue gh-8945
Use '^\s+//\ \~\ .*$' and '^\s+//\ ============+$' regular expression
searches to remove superfluous comments.
Prior to this commit, many classes would have comments to indicate
blocks of code (such as constructors/methods/instance fields). These
added a lot of noise and weren't all that helpful, especially given
the outline views available in most modern IDEs.
Issue gh-8945
In a recent clean-up, certain exceptions were removed from various
throws clauses.
This PR re-introduces throws clauses that are important for one of the
following reasons:
1. It's a method on a public interface
2. It's a method clearly designed for inheritance, for example, a
method stub, an abstract method, or indicated as such in the docs.
