/**
 * Annotate static methods of a container class with {@code @BeforeContainer}
 * to have them run exactly once before any of its properties or any lifecycle
 * methods from embedded containers will be run.
 *
 * {@code @BeforeContainer} methods must be {@code static void}
 * and they cannot have parameters.
 *
 * 
{@code @BeforeContainer} methods are inherited from superclasses
 * and implemented interfaces as long as they are not hidden
 * or overridden.
 *
 * The execution order of multiple {@code @BeforeContainer} methods
 * within the same container is not guaranteed and might change.
