PatternTesting Runtime (patterntesting-rt) is the runtime component for
the PatternTesting framework. It provides the annotations and base classes
for the PatternTesting testing framework (e.g. patterntesting-check,
patterntesting-concurrent or patterntesting-exception) but can be also
used standalone for classpath monitoring or profiling.
It uses AOP and AspectJ to perform this feat.

* In contradiction to the NullPointerTrap which forbids all null arguments
* you can use a more relax strategy and mark only these parameter (and
* attributes) as "@NotNull" which should never be null.
*
* You can also mark fields with this annotation but this is at the moment not
* evaluated. But you can use it for documentation purposes.
* The same is true if you mark a method as @NotNull.
