/**
 * {@code @ParameterizedTest} is used to signal that the annotated method is a
 * parameterized test method.
 *
 * Such methods must not be {@code private} or {@code static}.
 *
 * 
Arguments Providers and Sources
 *
 * {@code @ParameterizedTest} methods must specify at least one
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.params.provider.ArgumentsProvider ArgumentsProvider}
 * via {@link org.junit.jupiter.params.provider.ArgumentsSource @ArgumentsSource}
 * or a corresponding composed annotation (e.g., {@code @ValueSource},
 * {@code @CsvSource}, etc.). The provider is responsible for providing a
 * {@link java.util.stream.Stream Stream} of
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.params.provider.Arguments Arguments} that will be
 * used to invoke the parameterized test method.
 *
 * 
Formal Parameter List
 *
 * A {@code @ParameterizedTest} method may declare additional parameters at
 * the end of the method's parameter list to be resolved by other
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.ParameterResolver ParameterResolvers}
 * (e.g., {@code TestInfo}, {@code TestReporter}, etc). Specifically, a
 * parameterized test method must declare formal parameters according to the
 * following rules.
 *
 * 

 * Zero or more indexed arguments must be declared first.
 * Zero or more aggregators must be declared next.
 * Zero or more arguments supplied by other {@code ParameterResolver}
 * implementations must be declared last.
 * 
 *
 * In this context, an indexed argument is an argument for a given
 * index in the {@code Arguments} provided by an {@code ArgumentsProvider} that
 * is passed as an argument to the parameterized method at the same index in the
 * method's formal parameter list. An aggregator is any parameter of type
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.params.aggregator.ArgumentsAccessor ArgumentsAccessor}
 * or any parameter annotated with
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.params.aggregator.AggregateWith @AggregateWith}.
 *
 * 
Argument Conversion
 *
 * Method parameters may be annotated with
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.params.converter.ConvertWith @ConvertWith}
 * or a corresponding composed annotation to specify an explicit
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.params.converter.ArgumentConverter ArgumentConverter}.
 * Otherwise, JUnit Jupiter will attempt to perform an implicit
 * conversion to the target type automatically (see the User Guide for further
 * details).
 *
 * 
Composed Annotations
 *
 * {@code @ParameterizedTest} may also be used as a meta-annotation in order
 * to create a custom composed annotation that inherits the semantics
 * of {@code @ParameterizedTest}.
 *
 * 
Inheritance
 *
 * {@code @ParameterizedTest} methods are inherited from superclasses as long
 * as they are not overridden according to the visibility rules of the
 * Java language. Similarly, {@code @ParameterizedTest} methods declared as
 * interface default methods are inherited as long as they are not
 * overridden.
 *
 * 
Test Execution Order
 *
 * By default, test methods will be ordered using an algorithm that is
 * deterministic but intentionally nonobvious. This ensures that subsequent runs
 * of a test suite execute test methods in the same order, thereby allowing for
 * repeatable builds. In this context, a test method is any instance
 * method that is directly annotated or meta-annotated with {@code @Test},
 * {@code @RepeatedTest}, {@code @ParameterizedTest}, {@code @TestFactory}, or
 * {@code @TestTemplate}.
 *
 * 
Although true unit tests typically should not rely on the order
 * in which they are executed, there are times when it is necessary to enforce
 * a specific test method execution order — for example, when writing
 * integration tests or functional tests where the sequence of
 * the tests is important, especially in conjunction with
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.api.TestInstance @TestInstance(Lifecycle.PER_CLASS)}.
 *
 * 
To control the order in which test methods are executed, annotate your
 * test class or test interface with
 * {@link org.junit.jupiter.api.TestMethodOrder @TestMethodOrder} and specify
 * the desired {@link org.junit.jupiter.api.MethodOrderer MethodOrderer}
 * implementation.
