==== General testing utilities
The `org.springframework.test.util` package contains several general purpose utilities
for use in unit and integration testing.
`ReflectionTestUtils` is a collection of reflection-based utility methods. Developers use
these methods in testing scenarios where they need to change the value of a constant, set
a non-++public++ field, invoke a non-++public++ setter method, or invoke a non-++public++

`AopTestUtils` is a collection of AOP-related utility methods. These methods can be used
to obtain a reference to the underlying target object hidden behind one or more Spring
proxies. For example, if you have configured a bean as a dynamic mock using a library
like EasyMock or Mockito and the mock is wrapped in a Spring proxy, you may need direct
access to the underlying mock in order to configure expectations on it and perform
verifications. For Spring's core AOP utilities, see `AopUtils` and `AopProxyUtils`.
