/**
* When a class is annotated with @RunWith
or extends a class annotated
* with @RunWith
, JUnit will invoke the class it references to run the
* tests in that class instead of the runner built into JUnit. We added this feature late
* in development. While it seems powerful we expect the runner API to change as we learn
* how people really use it. Some of the classes that are currently internal will likely
* be refined and become public.
*
* For example, suites in JUnit 4 are built using RunWith, and a custom runner named Suite:
*
*
* @RunWith(Suite.class)
* @SuiteClasses({ATest.class, BTest.class, CTest.class})
* public class ABCSuite {
* }
*
*
* @since 4.0
