/**
 * Abstract base test class which integrates the <em>Spring TestContext
 * Framework</em> with explicit {@link ApplicationContext} testing support in a
 * <strong>JUnit 4.5+</strong> environment.
 *
 * <p>Concrete subclasses should typically declare a class-level
 * {@link ContextConfiguration &#064;ContextConfiguration} annotation to
 * configure the {@link ApplicationContext application context} {@link
 * ContextConfiguration#locations() resource locations} or {@link
 * ContextConfiguration#classes() annotated classes}. <em>If your test does not
 * need to load an application context, you may choose to omit the {@link
 * ContextConfiguration &#064;ContextConfiguration} declaration and to configure
 * the appropriate {@link org.springframework.test.context.TestExecutionListener
 * TestExecutionListeners} manually.</em>
 *
 * <p>Note: this class serves only as a convenience for extension. If you do not
 * wish for your test classes to be tied to a Spring-specific class hierarchy,
 * you may configure your own custom test classes by using
 * {@link SpringJUnit4ClassRunner}, {@link ContextConfiguration
 * &#064;ContextConfiguration}, {@link TestExecutionListeners
 * &#064;TestExecutionListeners}, etc.
