@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Inherited
@Documented
public @interface WithSecurityContext

An annotation to determine what SecurityContext to use. The factory() attribute must be provided with an instance of WithUserDetailsSecurityContextFactory.

Typically this annotation will be used as an meta-annotation as done with WithMockUser and WithUserDetails.

If you would like to create your own implementation of WithSecurityContextFactory you can do so by implementing the interface. You can also use Autowired and other Spring semantics on the WithSecurityContextFactory implementation.
