/**
* {@code @SetEnvironmentVariable} is a JUnit Jupiter extension to set the value of
* an environment variable for a test execution.
*
* The key and value of the environment variable to be set must be specified via
* {@link #key()} and {@link #value()}. After the annotated method has been executed,
* the original value or the value of the higher-level container is restored.
*
* {@code SetEnvironmentVariable} can be used on the method and on the class level.
* It is repeatable and inherited from higher-level containers. If a class is
* annotated, the configured property will be set before every test inside that
* class. Any method-level configurations will override the class-level
* configurations.
*
* WARNING: Java considers environment variables to be immutable, so this extension
* uses reflection to change them. This requires that the {@link SecurityManager}
* allows modifications and can potentially break on different operating systems and
* Java versions. Be aware that this is a fragile solution and consider finding a
* better one for your specific situation. If you're running on Java 9 or later and
* are encountering warnings or errors, check
* the documentation.
*
* During
* parallel test execution,
* all tests annotated with {@link ClearEnvironmentVariable}, {@link SetEnvironmentVariable}, {@link ReadsEnvironmentVariable}, and {@link WritesEnvironmentVariable}
* are scheduled in a way that guarantees correctness under mutation of shared global state.
*
* For more details and examples, see
* the documentation on @ClearEnvironmentVariable
and @SetEnvironmentVariable
.
