/**
* {@code @BootstrapWith} is an annotation that can be applied to a test class
* to define metadata that is used to determine how to bootstrap the
* Spring TestContext Framework.
*
* This annotation may also be used as a meta-annotation to create
* custom composed annotations. Note, however, that a locally
* declared {@code @BootstrapWith} annotation (i.e., one that is directly
* present on the current test class) will override any meta-present
* declarations of {@code @BootstrapWith}.
*
*
As of Spring Framework 5.3, this annotation will be inherited from an
* enclosing test class by default. See
* {@link NestedTestConfiguration @NestedTestConfiguration} for details.
